Members cooterbrown Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 I shared Elvis' dislike (well, actually Elvis freakin' HATED the guy...he once shot a television when Goulet came on) of him. I always thought he used his "big voice" at the expense of all emotion.There was no subtlety to go along wiht the bombast. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members blue2blue Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 I was a huge fan of his very brief TV show, Blue Light, a spy thriller kind of thing. I think it was one of those odd little half hour adventure shows like the original Peter Gunn and the first few seasons of Rat Patrol. He didn't sing in it -- that might have been really interesting. My mom was pretty disappointed about that. She was really wowed by him in Camelot. Funny... for some reason I still think of him as a young guy... I guess it was the boyish looks.

Members Lee Flier Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 I'm a fan. That sucks. Hard to believe really, I'll always think of him as this young handsome dude. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members gogo Posted October 31, 2007 Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 Firestone sold Christmas compilation albums in the 1960s. One year, Goulet sang a less-known hymn "Panis Angelicus." That song & recording is my favorite Christmas music. Still brings chills and memories. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Members Jeff da Weasel Posted October 31, 2007 Author Members Share Posted October 31, 2007 I will also say that his last well-known professional work, in the TV ad campaign for Emerald Nuts, was terrific. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Members Super 8 Posted November 1, 2007 Members Share Posted November 1, 2007 "Batmobile lost it's wheel and joker got awayyyyyyy hey!" I never really followed him. I knew a few songs from EZ listening radio when I was a kid though, "If Ever I would Leave You" etc. I do think he looked better without the mustache. Kinda like a tolerable Shatner. Ironic. Goulet started with Shatner on a Canadian version of the Howdy Doody show. Man, if they could have had Shatner, Goulet, and maybe Adam West all singing together on stage in Vegas, now that would have been something really special.
