As a dyed in the wool, rock and metal head I feel proud that the great Pat Boone is an integral part of the heavy metal family. He has an awesome voice.

One of the best metal/jazz albums ever made. Love it!

What I love is how he pissed off...EVERYBODY! lmao

Alice Cooper, Ozzy Osbourne and Lemmy said that Pat Boone is the coolest guy they know and know him personally. I read an article about his time in the studio doing this record and they said that so many of the Metal Hierarchy of the best Metal Bands were dropping by the studio and were so honored that Pat Boone was doing one of their songs. They said he has nothing but respect for them and they of him. That's fine with me. I still listen to the CD every now and then.

I read about him doing this in some magazine - and it was one of the most unbelievable articles ever, I just stared at the print...then I saw a news ad or something for him in that awards show he talks about here. THEN I saw THIS when it aired. I'm glad someone uploaded this. Funny moment in Television history for real.

Pat looks like he's planning on heading over to the blue oyster after the show.

This is a great album if you haven't heard it.

What a class act...

So good to see Pat explain this music. He HAS done all the rest over & over. His heavy metal CD has a big band sound to it too. Way to go Pat !

Haha. Mr Pat is actually a funny guy.🤘😁

I disc jockey events and always end with Pats version of "Enter Sandman" people are always amazed..

Pat Boone rocks and he has fun doing it.

In a metal mood is a great listen

Him dressed like that is the physical representation of when people cause trends to go out cause they wanna be in on what the kids are saying 😂

His smoke on the Waaaater is the best

I wish he would have also make a sedate punk rock inspired album....can you imagine him doing a slow finger snapping version of bodies,by the sex pistols?

So good to see this video. I missed seeing it at the time. Pat is the greatest entertainer !

everybody remembers that jazzy rendition of crazy train from the mtv Osbornes show. And his version of wind cries mary is legit

Revisionist History sent me here

I love this album!!! If you're in a bad mood, it will definitely lighten you up. Enter Sandman is probably my favorite of all the songs on the album. Paradise City had me in stitches. Great interview. If anyone is interested, the album is called "In A Metal Mood."

metal pat has nice guns there!

Legend

but I was a child I love this man for something that always stops with me by him was April love his voice was like Bing Crosby soothing wonderful singing voice and he was good looking with it(the wife)

You gotta LOVE this man!!!!!!!

American icon.....

Now we know what record Tool was going for.

Dude is a badass for this

Pat Boone: "How do you do, fellow kids?"

from 1997

FUCKIN' AWESOME! I love Pat..... MoodyRiver!

Those 60 year old tatted guns are honestly lookin’ lit af 💪 🔥

I must admit that I love the album - it's odd, interesting, got some great songs on it - and last not least it's well performed!

Basically he's Tobias Funke.

Actually, His Metal cover album is quite good stuff. Those were very soulful metal music and interesting experiment.In today, Hank Ⅲ sometime plays Heavy Metal. Maybe , Pat's experiment was too early.

rocking at the manhole in Jacksonville

Boone's daughter Debby was soooo hot! He shoulda did a version of LedZep's "The Lemon Song" on that album.

Oh bernadine

So after a 35-year break he says "Nobody can say I don't think my next move out carefully". He should have waited 40 years and really thought it out!

*Simply Amazing !*

I have noo shame and say that he looks hot in his leather. Vintage leather daddy

The haircut still screams "American businessman".....It's like when you go on a Jamaican holiday and you see these middle age men on the beach trying to be "island"...the haircut always gives them alway

Why not. Opera singers are performing "Popera".

He looks great!

Method actor

I fought with Pat in the war. The war on cash

Nice leather vest Pat. \m/

Yeah .hey Pat if you rock then the referees were wrong and Bobby riggs actually beat Billie Jean king in the king of kings tournament. He went back to usual position a doorstop at Macys Corp offices.

"TBN" = J-O-K-E

He should cover a Cannibal Corpse song.

is this where the term mid-life crisis came from?

???

I have the album and it's great. Though it's not really just heavy metal.

Holy shit! Hahahahaha! Im cryin over here. Did pat boone ever do "Iron man"? Hahaha! Is that patent leather? Hahaha!

Of course : "it's absurd" .... but at least good or nice to know or hear that he did not take himself too seriously !! A record or album Ok ... but touring with it ! Who draws which lines where ?

Don`t even now what to say.

What are record stores?

Didn't know opioids were popular back then.

when he turned to the dark side

He looks more religious

Well he should of done a grindcore cover album

This is just silly! I'm sure it's just a joke.

Wwjd

is this a joke

Some celebrities will do anything to stay relevant. ?????

It wasn't a heavy metal album. Doesn't even have guitar on it!

He just looked so ridiculous. Very cringy 😂

Are the tattoos real? I like him here but otherwise he is alittle to self righteous. He was a very strict and closed minded father. I remember hearing how he continued spanking his daughters , well into their teens. He was quick to condem this music before and those who performed it. He would be the first to tell you how he is saved but your going to hell. I always thought he was a very closeted gay man hiding behind his good boy and holy act.

just steal some more songs

He looks utterly preposterous and I'm sure that his imaginary sky-buddy Jesus would *_NOT_* approve 😆
