Carson-era Tonight Show Info
I had reason to visit the official Johnny Carson website today, prompted by an ad for a new best-of-Carson DVD set. He's still the best late-night host ever, in my opinion.
Now what does this have to do with Tracey? Well, the site has a Guest Search function, where you can search by name, date and date range. If you search for Tracey, you'll come up with a list of every time she appeared on the Carson-era show. Click on the show date, and you'll see a summary of that show -- not nearly as detailed as the summaries I do. I did find some big bloopers in the writeup for February 17, 1984: they got her song titles completely wrong ("Move Over Darling" was listed as "Make Love To Me", while "They Don't Know" was listed as "Three Of A Kind"). Here's how I wrote up her appearance that day, by the way.
