Ozzie, Harriet, David and Ricky - The Hot Rod Road Race...




.......Everybody loved watching the Nelsons on their black & white TV in the '50's. They were hokey. They were ridiculous. They were dimwitted. They were featherbrained. They were asinine......but we loved them all the same. The Adventures of Ozzie and Harriet show launched one of the most interesting and inspiring careers in the music business at that time. Their son Rick(Ricky when he was younger)was quite the teen idol but had the greatest opportunity to show himself off to the public on their weekly television show. Their family was much like most of ours back then but lent a type of innocence to the family and family values that we can even learn from today.
This is one of my favourite programs due to the fact that it has a very cool hot rod in it and a vintage model "T" touring. It is presented in 4 parts through youtube so you can see the whole episode, and also includes the KODAK advertising of the time.
........sooo click on each of the 4 above then come back and click on the others in order. ENJOY!!
