Sounds Good

Sounds Good is a Canadian music television miniseries which aired on CBC Television in 1976.

Premise

This four-part series featured particular genres of modern music and various performers. Jim McKenna hosted Sounds Good except the country music episode.

Folk: featured Ellen McIlwaine, Don McLean, Myles and Lenny and David Wiffen
Country : featured Carroll Baker, Tim Daniels, Mary Lou Del Gatto, Prairie Oyster
Disco: featured Crack of Dawn, Soul Express, Sweet Blindness and Rick Wamil
Jazz: featured Moe Koffman Sextet, Peter Appleyard, Aura and Clark Terry

Sounds Good was hastily produced on a low budget when CBC's Studio 7 became unexpectedly available for three days. A previously-planned television feature on Nellie McClung was scheduled to film there but production was cancelled when ACTRA objected to the choice of an American actor portraying McClung.

Scheduling

The hour-long episodes were broadcast on 4 August 10 September, 18 and 28 September 1976.
