I remember that show. “And you can get them in boxes of Breeze!”
Breeze! You made my day by saving me from hours of pondering the name of that detergent, lol. I didn’t recall Dolly and Porter doing the ads, but sure remember the product.
Like lots of others, I didn’t realize he was still alive until this article. Probably because of Dolly’s rendition of “Hillbilly Heaven,” where she’s going down the list of all the stars she’s seeing “up there” in her dreams of going to the Gand Ole Opry in the Sky.
She says a bunch of names of country singers who are already there, then gets to “future” possibilities, such as George Jones and the like, then herself. Then she stops and says “oops” “where’s Porter?” “oh, there he is.”
Maybe that was a double-entendre on her part, alluding to his semi-vanishing act from the business.
