Rod McKuen appeared as an actor on an episode of The George Burns Show, in 1959. He played the minor role of a musician named Cottonseed Carter, in the episode "George Invests in a Record Company."
This video simply contains the parts of the episode where Rod appears. I have also uploaded the full episode separately.
As far as I know, Rod McKuen didn't actually play guitar. His playing appears to be overdubbed here.
