Rick & Rudy were an hilarious comedy duo out of San Francisco. Ruby played a drunk stupid singer and Rick was an excellent guitarist who played the straight man.

I was lucky to see them live many times. Recently I found this episode of Mork & Mindy called "Mork & Mindy meet Rick & Ruby".

This episode gives just a glimpse of Rick & Ruby's talent but it will still make you laugh.

Here's Rick & Ruby on Comedy Tonight. It gives you a better idea of their comedy routine. They perform at the 9 minute and 30 seconds mark.

I remember seeing that episode as a kid.

The band starts playing and all they sing is the wee oooh background part because Ruby sings the lead. Then it leads into Mork singing This Heart Is Closed For Alterations.
