The Gentrys’ first national exposure came through Ted Mack’s Original Amateur Hour. After placing 3rd in the Mid-South Fair youth talent competition, they auditioned for the nationally televised show. Ted Mack introduced them as Memphis’ answer to the English invasion. #OneHitWondered #MusicSky

Some goodness from Memphis back in the day. Larry + wifey Missy Carol and band rock it out. 🎸🎶

More Memphis music from Larry Raspberry & the Highsteppers. Tight & top notch.
