I believe this is show where Randy appeared with his fringey jacket. Here is the YT clip where you can see a young man greeting Rick and he’s referred to as “Craig Hundley” by Mike Douglas. Also towards the end Mr. Douglas alludes to the Decca record She Belongs to Me, which is “really catching on big.” It hit the Top 40 in Jan. 1970 according to one of the YT comments.

I don’t know how the date of January 7, 1970 came about, unless maybe the Dec. 25 episode was re-broadcast that day or something. The entry for that date shows something else entirely.
I wonder if some of the dates could be a little off? For example, I see in 1971 there are entries for July 3 and 4, which (as a Doors fan) that was a Saturday and Sunday. Mike's show was only on weekdays I believe.

I love this video, thanks for sharing this! There’s something cool about seeing Johnny Carson holding up the Legacy album. Glad to see Richie Furay here and there’s a mysterious keyboard player, hmm. Isn’t it great how these clips are starting to pop up?

Yes, there is something not right about some of these dates, like the one for 12/25/69. Would his show air on Christmas Day? I don’t know how much Christmas programming there was back then. Surely that wasn’t the day they filmed it.

Re: Randy's TV appearances
Thanks for the link, CA. I can't remember if it's been posted either, but it is always good to see these old clips. Got a few glimpses of young Randy!

Re: Randy's TV appearances
I love his fringe jacket.
Re: Randy's TV appearances
We should include this on our list but I don’t know when the exact date of the broadcast was, nor on which tv station. Randy was promoting a June 30, 1986 benefit concert for the families of the band members who perished with Rick Nelson in the plane crash. https://m.youtube.com/watch?fbclid=I...&v=q1zvAyt45js

Another great find! Thanks!
Side note: Can you believe the interviewer asked Randy "Do benefits like this really help?" What kind of question is that??? Randy politely replies, "Well, I hope so. That's what it's for." I'm just shaking my head.
