"Yellow Balloon" #25 5/20/1967

Here's one that helped define sunshine pop. The drummer for the Yellow Balloon band (playing "Yellow Balloon") was ex-Mouseketeer Don Grady, who was in the middle of portraying Robbie on the long-running "My Three Sons." The video is from KTLA's "Shebang!" hosted by Casey Kasem and was taped on the field after a California Angels game in Anaheim where they hosted the Washington Senators. Check out Casey in an Angels uniform, and the band on the dugout roof. A very strange clip.
