I hope you like these songs...and if I was part of RCA during the 70's...I'd sign carter for a record deal...she could've done a duet with Elvis or Nilsson! No wonder Nell wanted to sing more on the series and sang to Dolph Sweet before he passed-on! What a Voice!

I had no idea that she almost did an album. That is very interesting.

Well she sure is talented enough, a great singer!!:) If she didn't get into/ wasn't known for acting , I could totally see her as a 70's era popstar/ soul singer! ;):)

I love to hear this lady sing. I always wished she did a gospel album.

Nell Carter was a great singer, but a horrid actress.

Nell Carter was a great singer, but a horrid actress.

I think she was okay...I wanna make a sketch called Match Game Purgatory with host Gene Rayborn and there's a random actor and actress...post #1 would have someone like Robin Williams or Rodney Dangerfield. Post #2-5 will be Bret Somers, Charles Nelson Reilley, Nell Carter, Richard Dawson, and post #6 would have someone like Bea Arthur or Mary Tyler Moore.

One segment is...Dolph Sweet, Bret Somers, Charles Nelson Reilley, Nell Carter, Richard Dawson, and Rue McClanahan. Rayburn says "Donald Duck was banned in Finland at one point, but the US Ambassador asked Donald Duck to come to Finland. So Donald Duck decided to wear _____".

One guy says "A Snowsuit"!

But here's the answers...

Dolph says "pants'!
Bret says "tuxedo".
Charles says "towel".
Nell says "nothing but a scowl! Something like this...

Richard says "trousers".
Rue gets excited and says "a sailor uniform".
