Quite a show in the 60's. The Brothers mixed music and satire to a delight.

The Smothers Brothers were icons. Loved them on Rowan and Marin Laugh in.

My father had a claim from them for some kind of damage to their winery. Had mentioned that Tom Smothers was the harder brother to deal with of the two.

But the was quite enjoyable when it was on TV.

My Dad seemed good with the celebrities as he handled a lot of theirs.

Part of a great comedic team, and a great comic in his own right.
