Ray stevens - The skits tended to be very broad and often verged on the physical violence associated with Mack Sennett slapstick. Singer-composer-comedian-impressionist Ray Stevens starred in this summer replacement for The Andy Williams Show. Music vocal group was also much in evidence. British singer Lulu, American comedian Steve Martin and former Mamas and Papas singer Cass Elliot were among the regulars, along with the comedy talents of Canadians Billy Van and Carol Robinson. Stevens had had several hit novelty records Ahab the Arab, Gitarzan and Harry The Hairy Ape among them.
Andy Williams' production company had had a deal with NBC to provide Andy's summer 1970 replacement series, and Canadian producers Alan Blye and Chris Beard worked through their friend, CTV Network President Murray Chercover, to have the one-hour Ray Stevens Show produced in Canada. But the series is perhaps most interesting in hindsight, affording an early view of the movie comedy superstar-to-be Steve Martin.
