Better known as #captainkangaroo Keeshan was a true #pioneer of #chilldren’s #television. Keeshan also played #clarabelle the #clown on #howdydoody. I wasn’t a fan of Captain Kangaroo (except its #earworm of a #themesong ) but I respect his work. He passed away in 2004 and is interred on his native Long Island. #history #popculture https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bob_Keeshan

I think it's great that this lost cut from the end of #VelvetGoldmine has surfaced. #music https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=nzm2uHZAirA
