The flip side of Industrial Musicals were Ad campaigns like this, sometimes with dozens of bands doing their thing with the Product's theme song. Coca Coloa, Pan Am, and bunch others.

Nice that they could be nostalgic about the 60s in 1970

Back then, car companies always had new model roll out presentations that were often similar to broadway shows! Some of them even had celebrities and broadway stars in them! I have been them with Florence Henderson for Oldsmobile!
Avatar Swag For Life Member 3:13pm

@Webhamster Henry - This bunch interests me in particular because of a strong Sunshine Pop pedigree. The Bahler brothers, who show up everywhere on that scene were involved

@ Larry > 1976 rr 1977 Winnipeg Folk Festival....which was like a time machine at the time...multiple tiny stages of at-that-time forgotten artists, and fading folk stars....Odetta, Elizabeth Cotten, Tom Paxton, Eric Andersen, U.
