This has been on my mind since I saw this pic. Several of those same SCTV cast members were also part of the short lived National Lampoon Radio Hour (later shortened to the radio 1/2 hour) which began airing in '73. Came on here in Big D on saturdee nights on KZEW (The Zoo) radio.

Revolving cast members were : John Belushi, Chevy Chase, Richard Belzer, Christopher Guest, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, Brian Doyle-Murray (Bill Murrays brother), Ed Subitzky, Douglas Kenney, Harold Ramis and Joe Flaherty.

Well ahead of their time they even did an early whole show version of a take off about Dr. Thompson S. Hunters adventures that eventually wound up being made into the film "Fear and Loathing in Las Vegas" many years later.

Had a cassette copy of that particular radio show for many years but no idea where it is now
