yeah, fairly cringe-worthy banter now in 2020, but the freq counter had Nixie tubes, so it gets a pass! one of my favourite childhood songs from back in the day, however!
*I wonder whether this was Season 1* of _Pop Goes the Country_? Don't remember hearing the Statlers in the overture. Bill Fries bringing up some laboratory instruments for TV performance of: *CONVOY / C.W. McCALL* *ROUND THE WORLD WITH THE RUBBER DUCK / C.W. McCALL* Both Songs by William D. Fries Jr. and Bernard F. Davis Jr. - American Gramaphone, SESAC wasn't a particular surprise for the era. My dream films about the Rubber Duck would be new scripts in line with the original song stories plus a new one co-written with the Leylands taking place after the survivors of the Atlantic crossing leave Japan, ideally co-produced by GMI Entertainment and released by Universal Pictures; the first: "Convoy: The 100,000-Mile Truck Drive, Part I," would begin in industrial Los Angeles near the San Pedro city limit before the Duck (ideal castmember: Aaron Tippin) picks up a 54' Thermo-King® reefer full of foodstuffs bound for New York City.
Thank you so much for sharing this video. There are so few videos of CW Mccall live, the interview part is the best, it is always nice to see an artist when he isn't singing. Thanks again

Steve fike s Steve Perry of journey and all the rock n roll singer s they play on Kool 108 forever promise to god. C.w. McCall king of country he created it.

First Time I remember hearing this song was on Oldies 1090 the Oldies Station that was in Kitchener and the D.J. explained the trucker's lingo from this song
The handle is PIG PEN...Not Big Pen's.....And for your second question...It is Jerry Reed and Chet Adkins...I can name most of the stars on the opening credits...Marty Robbins, Jerry Reed, Chet Adkins, Barbera Mandrel,but the man and woman at the beginning and the guy playin guitar setting on the stool escapes me...And of course The Statler Brothers singing the theme.
Great song and video! I bet if this was are played everywhere again including out on the west coast, stupid things like political correctness would go out the window and never come back!
#ugottalisten2b4udie #CWMcCall #CONVOY so keep the bugs off your glass & the bears off your... tail. We'll catch you on the flip-flop. We gonna roll this truckin' convoy 'Cross the USA
My Uncle Steve was gay and he said that one time in a men's restroom in Tulsa, Uncle Steve said that CW paid him 158 dollars to urinate on his behind, it was kind of gross but damn, that's a lot of money!
Terrific song writer. So talented. Convoy really took off. C.W. McCall will be greatly missed.
RIP CW McCall
I'm 24 years old, old soul feel like I'm 70. This is real music.
R. I. P. C. W. & Ralph Emery.
The 70's CB radio craze.
RIP CW over and out
RIP C.W. McCall
RIP Ralph Emory and now CW.
Interesting props.. An Oscilloscope, a frequency counter, what looks like an old radio shack police scanner, a CB mic.. but no CB..
One of the other videos he was talking into the back of a mic... LOL

If it weren't for the fact that that was CB equipment, I'd swear that was something you'd see in Rampart on the old tv show Emergency.

Yeah, I used to work for the Statlers up until they retired as their monitor engineer, so I knew that....Glad you did too!!

They should have shown more of the interview.

Love ❤️
This is a great trucker song
@Donny Sites
You know it.
Donny Sites Remember the 70s? Everybody had cb's, this song, the movie, great times!
That's the Statler Brothers singing the opening theme for the show.
RIP CW
🥰
Ultimate
Rap originally came from country...
The handle is PIG PEN...Not Big Pen's.....And for your second question...It is Jerry Reed and Chet Adkins...I can name most of the stars on the opening credits...Marty Robbins, Jerry Reed, Chet Adkins, Barbera Mandrel,but the man and woman at the beginning and the guy playin guitar setting on the stool escapes me...And of course The Statler Brothers singing the theme.
Sonny James is the guy on the Guitar
The man and the woman at the beginning is Danny Davis of the Nashville Brass and Connie Smith.
atkins
and there two l's in mandrell
@@nascarfan88ta Yep The Southern Gentleman from Alabama.
Great song and video! I bet if this was are played everywhere again including out on the west coast, stupid things like political correctness would go out the window and never come back!
my heeerooooo
"And eleven long haired Friends of Jesus
In a Chartreuse microbus." Brilliant. 2018?
That was a Volkswagen bus full of hippies
I Don't think ive ever see n this song live.
You still haven't.
dbkparm some of the worst lip sync I've ever seen, lol... Still though, love this song 41 years after it's release... When I was only 10!
What is CW McCall adjusting on the machine to his left?
I wonder IF this song MIGHT have been where the idea of that Smoky and The Bandit movie came from.
I have always wondered that
Probably. Also, let's not forget that the Kris Kristofferson movie "Convoy" was based on this song.
sounds like the statler brothers singing the theme song
It was.
What’s with the oscilloscope? LOL
I love CW even though he lip synced this song here.
(Pay no attention to the guitar there)
CW always had his ears on 10-4
Kearns bread!!!
C.W. McCall with a lot of police equipment.
good deal.
That's because it was The Statler Brothers.
Fucking incredible
Video is gone.
That sure was a hot young Barbara Mandrell in the beginning 💕😛
this is better then that watch me whip bull sh*t and i want to remake the movie and get it Right.
Play convoy
1976 ?? Remember this ,. When BS didn't exist. Now ?? 😴😴😴😴😴
RIP CW
#ugottalisten2b4udie #CWMcCall #CONVOY
so keep the bugs off your glass & the bears off your...
tail. We'll catch you on the flip-flop.
We gonna roll this truckin' convoy
'Cross the USA
Thats not a CB thats a bunch of test gear!!!!!
i don't think these are the original lyrics hehe, great though
Since the whole thing was lip-synched, I would suppose they actually are the original lyrics.
PensalemStudios exactly as released... Still have my 45 from 1976.
Country rap ? ...Nashville style. ....I thought rap came from the south Bronx ? ...this was 76...go figure....
My Uncle Steve was gay and he said that one time in a men's restroom in Tulsa, Uncle Steve said that CW paid him 158 dollars to urinate on his behind, it was kind of gross but damn, that's a lot of money!
Fuck off with your fake story. Cw is not a creep or a pervert I bet you just made the story up because you are mad at a successful musican.
@Kz104 Stunts
Haw haw!! You wet your panties over such a minor thing, damn go take your medicine, thanks for the laugh, haw haw!!
日本でも、コンボイの映画は良かった、その後日曜洋画劇場で放送してました、またまた感動、コンボイ、ラバーダック、主題歌、永久不滅です、コンボイ最高
