Yeah, I remember when Stu Jeffries replaced Terry David Mulligan on Good Rockin' Tonite. That show with TDM was requisite TV watching for my friends and I upon returning home from high school dances on Friday nights.
I didn't even know there was a Vancouver version of Switchback. To me it was always an East Coast/Halifax thing.
