I like to work out arrangements of TV show themes some times, because they are "in my head" from the old days and I can usually do them from memory. I was surfing around on Youtube looking for something neat to try and found this one. Loook at the list of credits of who played on this. I was amazed. I remember the show and how disappointed I was when it wasn't renewed.

Good ol' Jerry Reed played the guitar parts on this album "Blue", along with James Burton. Henri Strzelecki and Buddy Emmons were also session players on the album.

I wonder what ever happened to Michael Parks. I was into motorcycles especially Harleys in those days and so enjoyed the show. Thanks for posting about it.

Henry Strzelecki was Chet's bass player at a concert I attended in Florida in 1977 and I asked him after the show about Tommy Jones, who I had met the year before. He told me that he was the one who produced Tommy's first album that
was released on the Ovation record label, which I believe he said was created because of the difficulty in finding a label to accept Tommy. That's also the night I met Paul Yandell.

Regarding Michael Parks, I distinctly remember him being a "bad guy" on an episode of "Walker" in the 90's.
