Randall Franks also did not hesitate to call on a TV buddy to bring a unique performance to a recitation - CBS TV star Sonny Shroyer, "Enos" from "The Dukes of Hazzard," joins musical forces with fellow network star Randall Franks, "Officer Randy Goode" from TV's "In the Heat of the Night," to perform the recitation portion of the original composition "Children in Need" penned by legendary classic country star Ramblin' "Doc" Tommy Scott and Franks.

"I grew up watching Sonny Shroyer as "Enos" from the Dukes of Hazzard," he said. "I wanted someone who would make the piece memorable like Walter Brennan did for 'Old Rivers: I knew Sonny had what it would take to bring 'Children In Need.'"

Bluegrass star David Davis of Rounder Records and bass player Marty Hays, both of the Warrior River Boys, support them.
