We watched this episode of Barnaby Jones last night and I'm still thinking about how truly weird it was.
Several other reviews covered my impression of it but what the heck, I'll review it anyway. Another reviewer had me laughing out loud when they said that Marjoe Gortner looked like the son of the dentist on Newhart! Great comparison. I've never liked Gortner and he stayed true to form with his overacting. He's a really bad singer as well.
The most bizarre aspect of this episode was the use of Jethro Tull's best song, Wind Up. We had to mute Gortner's butchering of it. Buddy Ebsen actually sang a better acoustic version.
All in all a poor show which could have been better with a different actor playing the murdering musician.
