Saturday Morning's Greatest Hits: I Never Knew (1969)

From The Cattanooga Cats:

A recurring theme in some of the Cats' songs seems to be the unrequited love between Country & Kitty Jo, who otherwise were not presented as a romantic couple on the show.

Peggy Clinger of the Clinger Sisters is the vocalist on "I Never Knew".



Now, I have to see if 1) The Clinger Sisters ever appeared on American Bandstand or 2) ABC & Hanna-Barbera managed a crossover that got the Cats on Bandstand. If you guys know something, share it here.

The love wasn;t unrequited. According to the videos they were a couple. And they could be seen holding hands and stuff in the cartoon segments.

Since there were more music video segments than actual Cats shorts, I wouldn't have known, since I didn't watch the show regularly.

Yes, the Clinger Sisters were on American Bandstand, with Mike Curb, in 1969. See https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=q9c6MY5tpj4
