JSngry Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 Sonny did one for Pioneer, iirc. Wanting to say that Miles did one for some motorcycle company? do we count the series of Ella for Memorex? The most memorable of them all, though, imo: Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rooster_Ties Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 That Oscar Peterson ad for Bud, OMG. I guess, if nothing else, it certainly was a product of the time (early-to-mid 80's). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hardbopjazz Posted July 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 I guess the Williamsburg Bridge didn't have the clout, so tell everyone Sonny played on the Brooklyn Bridge. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Gould Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 The OP in the OP was just terrible. But did anyone notice the "that guy" actor playing the bartender? Wonder if that was one of his earliest gigs, whoever he is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well, the 1970's were when Adrienne Barbeau, Suzanne Somers, Loni Anderson and Farrah Fawcett-Majors became TV stars because of their "talents" . . .

AllenLowe Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 no one remembers but Harold Vick was in a Chemical Bank commercial - and I think calendar - in the middle '70s. I remember he drove up to one gig in a Mercedes and told everybody it was thanks to the commercial. Harold was a good looking guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
jazztrain Posted July 24, 2019 Report Share Posted July 24, 2019 (edited) A 2-fer. The first one is a hoot. The second one is the Schaeffer beer commercial.
