From Wally's bio: "Jay was practically panting at his coup of having Joni on his show for what he said was her first TV appearance in 25 years. This was not technically true, but it WAS her first U.S. network program since "The Johnny Cash Show" in 1970. She sang "Sex Kills" and talked a bit to Jay for a grand total of about 7 minutes."
