H R Pufnstuf
Boy do I miss this guy on TV!
We all, I hope, were exposed to this delightful kids show in the late 60′s & 70′s. I made sure that I got up in time to watch this show. The theme song reminds me of 59th St. Bridge Song (Feeling Groovy), but until today, I haven’t heard the tune. When playing this song, Feeling Groovy, I’ve tried to include some of the words from the theme song and people just jump in and sing along.
I’ve tried to look for it on the cartoon channels with no success.
My brother just called a minute ago and he remembers this show growing up and we chatted for a while on this subject. When we finished up with this topic he muttered, “you’ve got way too much time on your hands”.
Jimmy, played by Jack Wild, is the guy on this adventure that I always wanted to be. He was always having a blast with this Pufnstuf fellow. His best pal was a living flute called Freddie and Witchiepoo, which some of my buddies called a very old girlfriend of mine at the time, was just hilarious with all of her antics and her buddies. H R Pufnstuf, was the Mayor of this living Island that Jack washed up upon.
I hope that you enjoyed this blast from the past!
Keep on Jammin’
