The third season episode here (November 12, 1978) was the week that Ray Charles did double duty as host and musical guest. This sketch featured most of the cast dressed as “The Young Causcasians,” singing a tame whitebread version of what they call ” What Did I Say.”
Garrett Morris was playing the role of Ray Charles’ manager; he and Ray appear elsewhere in the skit and after the Caucasians sing, Ray sings the song himself. Garrett typically seems like he’s forgotten his lines. The clip is available in its’ entirety on archive.org. The Ray Charles version is quite good. Elsewhere online are outtake photos from a rehearsal and some in color.
