The team goes to see Eve's friend perform at a local bar where she is performing in a trio. After a delay in starting time, the two male trio members who are brothers announce to the audience that the friend will not be able to perform that night. When she can't get in touch with her friend and the body of a young murder victim that may be related to the band is discovered, Eve becomes involved with one of the brothers. Written by MissLu
Barbara Anderson shows a serious lapse in professional judgment as the charisma of David Carradine damn near overwhelms her. Carradine and his brother Michael Blodgett and a female friend of Anderson's are part of a trio. A kind of cross between the folk singing 60s crossing over in the disco 70s. Anyway when Anderson goes to a performance it turns out that her friend is missing. Efforts to locate her come up short.
At the same time the Ironside crew is investigating the murder of an as yet unidentified female. Now you know these cases are going to cross over themselves.
I found Blodgett and Carradine's characters way to off the wall for this to be any kind of coherent episode.
Not one of the best from Ironside.
