Hunt and Tony Sales have been music mainstays for many years. Bob Welch (used to be in Fleetwood Mac, did "Hypnotized", had a great solo record in the late 70s, now is a bit off the beaten path) used the Sales Brothers in his post Mac band called "Paris." It was quite good!
And they also were half of the band Tin Machine (Bowie was 1/4 of the band, copying Todd Rundgren's idea of Utopia being an egalitarian unit that happened to include a music superstar just by chance but he's not the star, really)

R.I.P. Soupy and White Fang, Black Tooth and Pookie. You all were a bigger part of my childhood than Howdy and the Captain. So much fun, thanks for the memories.

Yessir!

I was a cutting edge kindergartner and preferred Soupy to the corny Captian.
I think he was a "shaper" of my life. {#Mrgreen}

I didn't realize he was all over the U.S. television scene.
I thought he was just shown in Anaheim, California for me. {#Lol}
