On Monday 11-23-20 Kitty and I were traveling listening to Sirius Radio "60s on 6". The morning DJ played a Hoyt Axton song. After the song he mentioned what a fan of TAGS he was and that the evening before he had watched the episode where Hoyt Axton appeared. I can not recall Hoyt Axton in any TAGS episode. Does anyone know?

IMDB (they're real, real good about this kind of thing) says Hoyt was never on TAGS. Could be something misheard by Shorty or a mistake by the DJ. Hoyt was on WKRP though, great episode.
I believe he probably confused Hoyt with Jack ?Prince? (Rafe Hollister).
Keevy's right, assuming he read my mind. "He" being the DJ, NOT Shorty. Shorty is too good've "noticer" to make that mistake.
That makes sense.
I always liked Hoyt, but if he was in TAGS, it must've been a color episode. Seems like most of his appearances started mid to late 60's.
To quote my grand-niece, "Fun fact": Do you know his connection to Three Dog Night?
"I've never been to Spain, but, I've been to Oklahoma"
"They tell me I was born there, but, I really don't remember"
Also, Steppenwolf's "Snowblind Friend"
He also had a connection to Elvis. Do you know the connection?
Jeremiah was a ...
Pusher!
Those are the first TDN & Steppenwolf songs I think of. But I liked the songs he sang.
Elvis = Mom
Another little fact about Hoyt, his dad John was a very sucessful high school football coach. Once went 8 years without losing a game. Broken Bow, Ok
Yes, his Mom wrote "Heartbreak Hotel"
Thought he was going to be on The Beverly Hillbillies yesterday as I was typing my response. The episode was about a boy from home coming to BH and he was a singer. Hoyt had a similar arc on BH.
Turns out, it was "Keevy". Jesse Pearson as Johnny Poke!
