Star Route Vintage Country TV Show With Guest Roger Miller

Complete episode of this great live early 1960s show with appearances from series regulars Glen Campbell and the Collins Kids. Roger is slightly pre-mega stardom here but no less crazy. Good performances from all. Thanks!

That was fun to watch as Roger Miller showed his talents and Glen Campbell was about to take off as well! RIP RM and GC!

[@thecadamusementcompany4209]

Agreed! They were both incredible talents.

CRAZY Genius who died to young 1991 age 56

Brenda Lee was singing at the Calgary Stampede in the late 80's(maybe 1990). Roger was also performing there and came to her and complained about his voice. She gave him the number of her throat specialist in Nashville. He had advanced cancer and nothing could be done. Roger, unfortunately, was a heavy smoker.

Definitely filmed in early to mid 64, notice the cover of Roger's album Roger and Out when he starts singing. Released in 1964.

This is amazing. Is there any chance you have any clips from The Roger Miller TV Show? It is lost right now.

[@tarquin4592]

[@Blackash77]

I'm curious about the year this was made. Could it have been 1964?

[@thecadamusementcompany4209]

Not sure. Seems a little late. My guess is '62 or so. Wish I knew!

Glen Campbell could sing with the best of them and was as good.
