The Best Of Hootenanny - How to Watch Quality Movies Online
Wow! I really loved the movie The Best Of Hootenanny. The movie is absolutely stunning with top-notch graphics and visuals while The Serendipity Singers deliver some award winning performances in this movie.
I also think The Limeliters was big name! The visuals and graphics make for some very realistic on screen special-effects but that is the beauty of the movie.When the movie wants to be funny it is funny, the same is true for when the movie needs to deliver its scary aspects.
I think The Serendipity Singers and The Limeliters worked wonderful in The Best Of Hootenanny. The superstar supporting cast includes The Serendipity Singers, The Limeliters, The New Christy Minstrels, The Brothers Four.
You should see it, make no mistake this is a definite blockbuster!

Summary of The Best Of Hootenanny:
For the first-time on home video, a deluxe 3-DVD set of the hit ABC show that started the ’60s!
In the pre-Beatlemania days of April 1963, a weekly folk music concert called Hootenanny found its way onto the American television airwaves. Originating from various college campuses, the show featured artists that were thriving on the coffee house and college circuit, like Judy Collins, Trini Lopez, Jimmie Rodgers, the Chad Mitchell Trio, the Brothers Four and Bob Gibson.
Hosted by Jack Linkletter (the son of TV legend Art Linkletter), Hootenanny was also a showcase for young comedians, including Bill Cosby and Woody Allen. And Hootenanny, not limiting itself to folk artists, also featured gospel, jazz and country performers, including Clara Ward, the Carter Family, Marion Williams, Herbie Mann, Hoyt Axton, Eddy Arnold, Flatt & Scruggs and Johnny Cash–all usually performing in the folk idiom, or something close to it.
A few young future rock performers also made early appearances on Hootenanny. Look for John Phillips, who would later go on to form The Mamas and the Papas, as a member of the Journeymen. Carly Simon performs as one half of the Simon Sisters and Barry McGuire, who would soon have a number one hit with Eve Of Destruction, can be seen with the New Christy Minstrels.
By 1964 the Beatles had arrived in America, essentially ending the folk music craze that had started only a few years before. Hootenanny would soon be replaced by Shindig! All of the videotapes of Hootenanny are lost–most likely erased and recycled during a time when no one imagined folk music would matter again. But fortunately the shows were preserved on kinescopes, films made from a television monitor. These kinescopes of Hootenanny form a musical time capsule of the short-lived era in American popular music–in between Elvis Presley and The Beatles–when folk music was all the rage.
