3.0 out of 5 stars Caveat Emptor: this isn't all Sonny and Cher, July 10, 1999

This review is from: Flashbacks: Pop Parade [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Being the avid Sonny and Cher collector that I am, I was more than disappointed when I purchased this tape as I was expecting a video exclusively about this fab duo (as the picture of the couple on the cover and the fact that Sonny and Cher are listed in the video information provided by our beloved Amazon.com would lead one to think); however, the video only shows a brief S&C performance of "The Beat Goes On" (an exact cut from "The Nitty Gritty Hour). The rest of the video shows performances by Jim Croce, The 5th Dimension, The Poppy Family, Kenny Rogers and the First Edition, Raquel Welch and Tom Jones, Lou Rawls, and Dionne Warwick. So Caveat emptor; unfortunately, this isn't all Sonny and Cher. (There's a clip of Kenny Rogers w/brown hair though..if that's worth something.)
