I do like how the audience initially were like ' what is this guy doing' then the penny dropped and the effects impressions kicked off and they were just eating out of his hands thereafter, guy forever will be a legend :D
I remember Paul Rubens,a k.a. Pee Wee Herman on The Gong Show ,but I never knew Michael Winslow being on it.The first time I saw Winslow was in Cheech and Chong's Next Movie.
AS SILY AS IT SEEMS THIS WAS A GOOD SHOW BACK THEN I USED TO WATCH IT WITH MY GRANDMA MOSTLY. THE UNKNOWN COMIC. A GUY WITH A BROWN LUNCH BAG OVER HIS HEAD. HE STANK!!
@dizzle1174 yeah that show was a trip wasn't it??i remember jamie farr and jp mogran being the bests hosts on the show chuck was a hoser with his cheesy hat. its still was a great show though.
i was expecting a bit more with the purple haze bit, so i was a little disappointed. also, per previous comments, just b/c he got (3) 10s doesn't mean he won the show. there were several episodes where tie breakers were needed. thank you to RBArchives for posting this!

Before Police Academy ~ he was a winner on The Gong Show!! Amazing Talent!!
Would hate to have him as a roommate. lol He would probably have me answering doors and phones as a direct affect of his zany imitations lol
*****
That's true, but one things for certain, you'd never be bored ; )
Very underrated talent. He is the Rich Little of Sound Effects.
Before Cheech and Chong
@@satanslovechild6458 I know it's amazing that everybody forgets Cheech and Chong.
I Love this!!!! Thanks for posting!
I'm always amazed at all the careers that started here! Mike Winslow, Boxcar Willie, Bob Zany...This is far more interesting than Idol.
Thanks for the upload, I was looking specifically for this!
MICHAEL WINSLOW was winnin' even back then.
FURY ANDERSON
Thanx 2 Trump!
That gong show trophy must have a very special place in mike's home. Because that is classic.

I miss this great show!
Mike Winslow is very talented pretty much in his own league as far as sounding like anything he wants to.
He is way more talented now than back then.
Gong Show: Man of 100 Sounds
Police Academy: Man of 1,000 Sounds
Today: Man of 100,000 Sounds
How does he make the guitar sound? It's incredible to watch him.
ALOT OF PRACTICE
Michael Winslow later found stardom playing Larvelle "Motormouth" Jones in the "Police Academy" movie series and on "Spaceballs."
Yeah, I remember him now. Good for him. That was a good character.
A star is born! 😂😂😂😂
Must be the only guy to do both AGT and GS.
sadly no the walrus guy also did gs mike myers version and agt but MIKE did agt to see if he still has it and he does
Better give him a 10.
That was awesome!
Shortly after, Michael got a role in "Cheech & Chong's Next Movie"
Must have been 19yrs old. The show was in June '78 and Winslow's born in Sept '58.

He's making a come back 2017....
Chuck passed the torch.
Michael Winslow's always been 3 10-'s, F.T.W.!
Appeared in York at the Camelot years ago.....................
they're trying to revamp this show recently, maybe we need MW up there again

lol... 516.32 is almost $2000 dollars in 2015
!!!LMFAO!!! My stomach HURTS!!XDXDXD!!!!
hes a big hendrix fan hes been doing hendrix forever.
A 10? I'd give him a 1000000000000000000000000000.................
I would have GONGED him on account of him holding the guitar INCORRECTLY. Everyone KNOWS that Jimi was LEFT handed...
☝️🤨
Looks like Mike had a couple groupies near the end there...
Like his dysheka
but its still more than most people make in a week
He ended up being bigger than his judges and the host.
this one goes to 11!
Dolan? is that you? D:

This was the weirdest show ever...
This what sent him to the police academy
Epic win for Mike! What a grimey ass show 'host' that Pat is...
How old was he?
Michelle Lee - zowie!
19
Hey he hey, smoke weed evereday :D=
I was on the Gong Show around 1977 or 78. I came in 2nd and won a pair of sunglasses. No stardom for me.
