My friend Jim S. lent us some DVDs of performances from Burt Sugarman's "Midnight Special" television programs of the 1970s. Our two girls love watching the DVDs because the performances offer a rare view of the decade of their parents' youth.I just watched THE MAIN INGREDIENT perform "Everybody Plays The Fool."
I was shocked at how the mannerisms of the lead singer, CUBA GOODING, seemed to mirror the mannerisms of his Oscar-winning actor son, CUBA GOODING JR.
It was uncanny, but did I notice the similarity because I wanted to see if I could spot similarity?
I don't know.
The facial mannerisms and body language just seemed so eerily similar.
I have always loved that song, but I can't remember the last time I saw The Main Ingredient perform it on television or video. Seeing it tonight felt like a revelation.
