The original beats it by a mile; it had culture and style, the latter has bling and biceps. Yuck!

Miss Goddess:

i was talking about the music, not the photography that goes with it. There is a very slight difference about half way through the new one, but they are extremely similar, but I do like the attention given to the statue of King Kamehameha in the new version but was overlooked in the original.

Going way down in the pile for some of those shows which is very good. The only show I didn't recognize was "Felony Squad."

I just recently watched him in a made-for-TV movie from the 70s. I only had seen him previously in bit parts on TV shows. Did he have his own series?

He was the lead in "Rat Patrol" if that is what you are asking.
