It's Dolly and the sparkling Mandrell Sisters on their variety show! Country music superstar Barbara Mandrell hosted this country music-themed variety series with her younger sisters, Louise and Irelene. While most of the show consisted of comedy sketches but the heart of it remained firmly rooted in country music.

They would also feature a promising new up-and-coming act of the era.

Claudia Cardinale took Europe by a storm, and soon the United States… and the rest of the world. The Italian film actress appeared in some of the most acclaimed European films of the 1960s and 1970s. She was blessed with more than just beauty, she had real talent as can be seen in her performances in films such as Girl with a Suitcase (1961), The Leopard (1963), and Federico Fellini's 8½ (1963).

Then she began appearing in Hollywood films like Blindfold (1965) with Rock Hudson, The Professionals (1966), and the epic Western Once Upon a Time in the West (1968). She feared becoming a cliché and grew tired of Hollywood so she returned to Italian and French cinema. 

Here’s a blast from 1983 past, a stunning, fresh-faced Sharon Stone.

Pictured here are two sides of the same coin, Bill Bixby as David Banner and Lou Ferrigno as his alter ego 'Hulk'! Ferrigno wasn’t always an actor, he was once a fitness trainer and a bodybuilder which made him ideal for the role of the big, green, angry Hulk. The Incredible Hulk television series was based on the Marvel Comics character and aired on the CBS from 1977 to 1982. Ferrigno also reprised the role of Hulk (verbally) in the animated and computer-generated incarnations.

Several Bewitched characters appeared as guests on Tabitha, including Bernard Fox who reprises his role as Dr. Bombay. George Tobias and Sandra Gould also appear as Abner and Gladys Kravitz. Unfortunately, Tabitha wasn’t able to captivate audiences like Bewitched had for eight seasons, so it was canceled after one season.

Fotomat was a retail chain of drive-through kiosks for photo development founded back in the 1960s. They were located in shopping center parking lots. At its peak, there were over 4,000 Fotomats throughout the United States in the 1980s, primarily in suburban areas. You’d spot that distinctive pyramid-shaped gold roof in the middle of a parking lot at a strip mall, and just drive up to drop off your film or pick up your photos. Easy peasy. They offered one-day finishing and sold Kodak-brand film and other photography-related products.

Creedence Clearwater Revival often referred to as Creedence or simply CCR, consisted of frontman John Fogerty, his brother rhythm guitarist Tom Fogerty, bassist Stu Cook and drummer Doug Clifford. Their style was primarily rock, their sound encompassed an interesting mix of the swamp and blues rock genres. The very peak of their success would have to be between 1969 and 1970, the band performed at 1969's famed Woodstock Festival and released numerous hit songs, and In April 1970 they embarked on their first European tour. Then, after four years of consistent chart-topping success, the group disbanded acrimoniously in late 1972. 

Poor Susan Dey, she was just too cute for her own good. She had an intense romantic interest in her onscreen brother David Cassidy while they worked on The Partridge Family together but Cassidy had no interest in her. Apparently, Dey’s crush and Cassidy's disinterest went deep enough for him to feel the need to publicly explain why he repeatedly rejected her advances. He said it was because she “lacked the [promiscuous] aspect of a female” that he desired. Even worse he described her as the “sister he never had”. Ouch!  Then he had the nerve to wonder why she stopped speaking to him... 

formed in 1969,but didn’t start playing under the name Alabama until 1977 and after two of their singles chart success of two singles, they were approached with a record deal from RCA Records. Alabama’s greatest success was in the 1980s, they had over 27 number one hits, seven multi-platinum albums and received numerous awards.

Pictured here is Elvis Presley with his father, Vernon, at home in Memphis on July 4, 1956.

It was around the end of June of 1934 that Gladys knew she was pregnant and by her fifth month, she knew she was having twins!

Gladys was earning $2 a day at the Tupelo Garment Company and her husband Vernon worked odd jobs. So with what money they had and a borrowed $180, Vernon constructed a family home that he and Gladys moved into that December.

Then, on January 8, 1935, Elvis Aaron Presley was born. Sadly, his identical twin named Jesse Garon was stillborn. Elvis grew up an only child in a financial turbulent home, but his family was very close-knit and large. Family members living nearby he and his parents in Tupelo included, grandparents, aunts, uncles, and cousins. 

Pictured here is Tim Curry as Frank N’ Furter and Richard O'Brien as Riff Raff in the iconic horror classic The Rocky Horror Picture Show.

The Rocky Horror Picture Show. Rocky Horror is best described as a musical horror comedy. Initially, it didn’t do so well, but as a midnight picture, it grew its own cult following and soon became a cultural phenomenon in both the U.S. and U.K.

Pictured here is a young, dapper looking avant-gardists by the name of Frank Zappa, just 22-years old and playing the bicycle on the Steve Allen Show, back in 1963. Zappa’s appearance on the Steve Allen Show was essentially the launching point for what would become a wildly successful career. During the interview the multi-instrumentalist told audiences he could guitar, vibes, bass, and drums. He did, however, choose to charm everyone by playing the bicycle of all things.

“How long have you been playing bike, Frank?” Allen asks. “About two weeks,” says Zappa, getting his first big laugh.

In The Rockford Files, James Garner took an ordinary The Pontiac Firebird and turned into into a piece of automotive and television infamy. Rockford’s Firebird wasn’t just a car, it was also a character in the show.

In Garner’s autobiography he stated, “Car chases and car action were a big part of the series, and I did most of the driving myself. That was my fun. I’d driven race cars a little in Grand Prix and gotten the bug. One maneuver became kind of signature of the show. People thought I invented it and began calling it a ‘Rockford,’ but it was really just a reverse 180, also know as a ‘moonshiner’s turn’ or ‘J-turn.’ When you’re going straight in reverse at about 35 miles per hour, you come off the gas pedal, go hard left, and pull the emergency brake. That locks the wheels and throws the front e

Here's a classy photo of Lenny and Squiggy, one of the best TV duos ever and they had the pleasure of playing alongside one of the other greatest duos in television history Laverne and Shirley. David Lander and Michael McKean’s characters were the obnoxious neighbors of Penny Marshall’s tough-talking Laverne and Cindy Williams’ perpetually perky Shirley. 

Leonard Kosnowksi and Andrew Squiggman graced the show from 1976 to 1982. with their trademark "Hello!" entrance, standard greaser fashion sense, and who could ever forget their never-ending idiocy which often stole the show.

American Graffiti, the quintessential coming of age comedy, directed and co-written by George Lucas. In it ‘A couple of high school grads spend one final night cruising the strip with their buddies before they go off to college.’

The film stars favorites such as Richard Dreyfuss, Ron Howard, Paul Le Mat, Harrison Ford, Charles Martin Smith, Cindy Williams, Candy Clark, Mackenzie Phillips, Bo Hopkins, and Wolfman Jack.

Pete Dixon (Lloyd Haynes) teaches the class, Liz McIntyre (Denise Nicholas) school's guidance counselor (and Pete’s girlfriend). Seymour Kaufman (Michael Constantine) is the principal and Alice Johnson (Karen Valentine) plays Pete’s student teacher.

While many of the show’s themes were timeless and could relate to most teenagers, many were also reflective of the contemporary political climate of the late 1960s and early to mid-1970s: Vietnam War, women's rights, race relations, and Watergate. 

Pictured here is an intense version of the chipper Elizabeth Montgomery audiences became accustomed to on Bewitched. Here she is, starring in The Legend of Lizzie Borden.

She won a People's Choice Award and was the first female country artist to win the American Music Award (1974).

These two were all drama from the start. When pop diva Cher and rocker Gregg Allman first met in January 1975, Cher was in the midst of a divorce and custody battle with Sonny Bono, and Allman was battling addiction. Not a great recipe for stable relationship, but hey, they were smitten with each other and gave it a shot.

According to Allman’s memoir, their first date was the worst… it ended with him shooting up and passing out.But their second date was a bit better, according to Allman they drank and danced the night away at a disco club and "When we got back to her place, she took me out to her rose garden, and all the roses were just starting to bloom…We made some serious love!" As soon as her divorce from Bono was final, she jumped right into a marriage with Allman. Of course, his addiction led to constant fighting and eventual divorce. 

It’s after neurotic neat-freak Felix Unger and sloppy, cigar-chomping, sportswriter Oscar Madison have both been given the boot by their wives that the two share a Park Avenue bachelor pad. Obviously two grown men used to having spouses are going to have quite a few adjustments to make when moving in with each other–that’s where the hilarity ensues.

Here we have a dashing, young James Garner as the charming gambler Bret Maverick of the Western television series Maverick (1957 to 1962).
