Mr. Buckley floods the stage with musical emotion so intense reminds me of Son House but nobody could match him. Great video. No words can describe how great it was growing up with this music. Thank you.
Love these old performances---back when guys actually played their instruments----we don't need no stinking computer music. But I am happy to be able to view it on my computer---if I had a time machine I'd go back and be in it "live". thanks for posting.
Icing on the cake: Could you make it easier to access by time stamping the individual artists and the name of the tunes. Cherry on top: Names of the accompanying musicians.
It's quite crazy to think that the last time i saw these videos of Zephyr and John Mayall's Blues Breakers was the very night 50 some years ago sitting in front of a black and white TV in Munroe Falls, Ohio when these were first aired on Channel 25 (what we called educational TV) from Cleveland, and they were brand new. One of those nights was the night i fell in love with Candy Givens' kick-ass voice.
All great performances - thanks for uploading. Never knew Dion had a folk side. He was the biggest surprise for me. Never heard of Jam Factory until yesterday when I watched Parts 1 and 3, but they were amazing.
@@andydixon2980 You have probably heard "I Just Want To Celebrate"... correct? RARE EARTH IN CONCERT (1971) is great. They also played the California Jam in 1974. There are TH-cam videos of that, as well. They were on Motown's "Rock" label...also called Rare Earth.
@@jazzpunk I knew of them but never really paid all that much attention to them. They are unreal... What talent and the Drummer still sounds and plays the same its unreal.... I bought the records and the book this week LOL ...
I think that even the most jaded music critic is in ecstasy watching THE SHOW. @Clark Santee you have opened the door for a new generation to appreciate the wealth of creation that had sprung forth from America during those pivotal years. Be proud America, you beautiful, artistic people, and Keep The Faith
Zephyr - best damn little band no one ever heard of. (I wonder why Tommy Bolin's guitar was so low in volume. Maybe because of running it through that effects box? And if that keyboardist pulled out one more instrument I think I'd of shit.)
Wow, my old roommate did the equipment for them and I use to travel with Rare Earth for the Michigan shows. Great to see them young. I only knew the older version of them.
This channel is greatness. Such cool stuff to see/hear these artists actually play live, no lip sync, just raw performances. This almost never happens today. Even when it looks as if a band is playing live, odds are, that's not the case. Thanks for posting these videos.
Definitely worth dusting off. These are some classic, early performances. I knew about The Show because I'm a lifelong GFR fan, and knew they performed some of their early tunes there. Very cool to see--especially as a Pennsylvanian!
I would love to see more footage of Dion from this era. After the success of Abraham, Martin and John ca. 1968, he recorded several albums in the singer-songwriter vein that did not perform as well commercially, but are quite good. The solo acoustic LP Sit Down Old Friend is worth seeking out. Without overdubs or a backing band, Dion's voice and guitar playing really shine.
A real bummer as the Brooklyn Bridge perform a song that was only a B Side to a 45 called "He's Not A Happy Man" which can be heard at 51:37. This didn't appear on any of their 4 LPs and only the B Side of a 45 called: Free As The Wind which was from their first LP. This single was released 2 years later on Buddah cat#162.
Thank you so much for sharing these hidden gems of music history! Have always wondered how many local TV stations had performances of artist that ended up being stored away after the original airings and forgotten about, until a studio tech got a hold of them or made copies to keep and now released after all these years to share with the world... These videos look in such good condition and resolution, are they from the original 3/4 inch tapes?
Clark, Thank you for the uploads. Amazing footage on these four compilations, especially Tim Buckley, Phil Ochs, Dion, Mountain, Amboy Dukes and GFR. Any chance that the whole series will see the light of day?
OMG! I'm a 74 year old retired pro-drummer and I've been watching The Show I-IV. Bands I've heard of and bought their LPs but never seen on stage is a godsend. I just finished watching Country Joe & the Fish drummer do a great solo. Are any of these shows available for downloading? I looked through bit torrent but didn't find any. I spent my early days playing in the mid-west and the southern states so I missed out on this show. Too bad. Thank you for uploading this. Warms my heart. . . .Peace
Curtis, Thank you for your nice comment. I am thrilled with all the good responses that have come forth from releasing these performances on TH-cam. In just a few of weeks the compilations have received over 11,000 views from music fans from all over the world, and produced over 200 responses. The only complaint I've received is for misspelling folk singer Phil Ochs name. The comments very much support the belief that people our age grew up in a golden time of music. I am amazed by how much reverence there is for the music of the period and how familiar people are with the artists, even those who came-and-went so quickly like Zephyr, Melanie, Andy Robinson and McKendree Spring. An even bigger surprise is how many people are writing in who actually saw THE SHOW when it was on the air. (PBS was so young then. I was not sure if anyone saw our work.) But most of all I am impressed with how many people our age intimately remember these musicians and what they meant to the times. When I recorded these performances in the fall of 1969 I was still in my 20s and really had no idea what I was doing. In fact, this was my first time for directing a televised music show. But I felt we were doing something important and hopefully helping to end the Vietnam War. I am glad WITF-TV in Hershey, PA preserved the series, which is kind of a miracle unto itself. Clark Santee
I loved this old show, but personally, I would have rather seen less Ted Nugent and more Grand Funk Railroad, Iron Butterfly, Mountain, Youngbloods,Rare Earth, or Brooklyn Bridge. I was also shocked at Bill Haley and his Comets. Those guys are super talented and gave a master class on rock and roll. Dion also gave a glimpse into the incredible talent that he possessed.
That bunch of Yankees didn"t know what to make of Doug Kershaw. AAAAEEEEEE!😂 I remember in the 80s he performed at a music awards in LA and those people didn't know what to make of the Louisiana Wild Man then either.
Uncle Ted was funny looking. Incase any hard rock fans are watching and reading that band Zephyr, That guitarist is Tommy Bolin as a very young adult. I didn't even know who he was until he played with the James Gang on the Miami album. While watching this video he caught my eye. I'm like that is fkn Tommy Bolin. Such a talented musician and I'm perfectly hetrosexual but he was one beautiful man. Any way I looked up the band Zephyr and sure is Tommy Bolin. I say was because he died of a drug overdose awhile after playing with the 5th rendition of Deep Purple. You should read the story of his life with Deep Purple. Crazy shit that band went through on a tour overseas. Imay have heard this band in 1970 as I was born in 58 but I was not heavily into hard rock until the later 70's. I was only 12 then.
Ed, I did work at WITF from 1969 and into 1972. After that I went free-lance as a producer-director specializing in the production of music programs for television. It was the good receprion I received from the Grand Funk piece that enabled me to make that move. It turned into a 50 year career, so I do feel a great deal of fondness for that day. Clark Santee

Mr. Buckley floods the stage with musical emotion so intense reminds me of Son House but nobody could match him. Great video. No words can describe how great it was growing up with this music. Thank you.
Countless fans would love to know about this lost Buckley performance .
Thank you, yours may be the only video of most of these performers~
Holy shit. At 43min theres a young Tommy Bolin doing echoplex tricks! I never thought Id see footage of this!!!!!!
Dion: proving why he's one of America's greatest singers with his interpretation of Leonard Cohen's "Sisters of Mercy". Perfection.
WOW !!! amazing to finally see footage of Zephyr doing Cross the river !!!! made my Weekend , thank You .
Best find on TH-cam in years.... Wow what a show
Love these old performances---back when guys actually played their instruments----we don't need no stinking computer music. But I am happy to be able to view it on my computer---if I had a time machine I'd go back and be in it "live". thanks for posting.
Adding, seeing Zephyr just incredible. Never thought anything like this would ever surface. Thank you!
Seeing a young Tommy is incredible. I had heard some Zepher before but never live like that.
bolin puts ted to shame, the talent compared to him... a joke
You ain't lying!
Even before The Midnight Special there was greatness
Thanks for paying attention...been hoping to revisit this for 50 years. Now I can die.
Don't Die MATE.
U won't be able to enjoy this Treasure over and over. 🎧🎸🔊🤘🤘
thanks for managing to get one more comp together.
Wild stuff from Tim Buckley. Haven’t heard music like that since a weird weekend I spent out at this commune near LA on a weird ranch called Spahn’s
Spahn Ranch? Stop it, Teledan, just stop,it
Countless fans would like to find this LOST BUCKLEY performance
Hallelujah. Someone had the good sense to squirrel away these gemstones of hidden culture.

Just stumbled upon this channel sure glad I did. Rare Earth! Incredible stuff. Thank you for sharing Rock History.
Me too! Where has these classic performances been hiding!
All great performances - thanks for uploading. Never knew Dion had a folk side. He was the biggest surprise for me. Never heard of Jam Factory until yesterday when I watched Parts 1 and 3, but they were amazing.
I love McKendree Spring, but this was the first time I saw them in a live clip. Fantastic!
Dion could and did do it all. He showed just a glimpse of his musical history and talent on this show. He was definitely a highlight.
@@jamesferris4573 The album he made with Phil Spector has some great stuff on it
Long live Candy Givens!
да здравствует томми болин, спасший дип пурпле от позора и забвения
'Rare earth' were incredible. Super tight band, and what a grooving riff. Tim Buckley blew me away too.
Killing me that bassist John Persh is playing trombone.
Rod Richards still on guitar, here...he ended up with Noel Redding in Road, a Blues-Rock band.
...and Persh even sings lead! Geez!!!
@@jazzpunk Amazing band. Can't believe I've never heard of them before.

Wowee! I sure didn't know this existed, How cool! God bless you for uploading this!
I always wanted those pants Tommy Bolin is wearing. Too cool. Good stuff.
Clark, you have made a lot a people happy.....thanks.
This must be were the Jools Holland show was invented . Mr Santee thank you for these showcases of talents , waaaaaaay ahead of its time
thank you...!!!!! also for Cross the river of zephyr.......!!!!!!
Thank you for posting these vids. We Brazilians love music!
Wow - Never heard of the show the music is so amazing and yet so deep.
Wow!! What a great opportunity to see all of these acts in their prime. Thank you for uploading this.
Rare Earth a truly great group. One of the best ever vocalists as well as wonderful drummer. Whole group top musicians.
Thank you Clark.
Thank you for your work. Time well spent.
Clark, thank you for share this amazing musical history!!!
I think that even the most jaded music critic is in ecstasy watching THE SHOW. @Clark Santee you have opened the door for a new generation to appreciate the wealth of creation that had sprung forth from America during those pivotal years.

Wonderful to see a young Bolin playing those Wes Montgomery chords
Wow - Amboy Dukes - never thought I'd see this - special stuff
Zephyr - best damn little band no one ever heard of. (I wonder why Tommy Bolin's guitar was so low in volume. Maybe because of running it through that effects box? And if that keyboardist pulled out one more instrument I think I'd of shit.)
Thank you so much. Many of these groups I have never seen, yet I was a teenager when they were filmed. Wonderful music!
Thank you for posting such entertaining music!! 😎
Rare Earth were on fire. Gotta love the Fuzz and Overdrive on the solo.
Dion doing Sisters Of Mercy! Amazing.
Wow, my old roommate did the equipment for them and I use to travel with Rare Earth for the Michigan shows. Great to see them young. I only knew the older version of them.

real music is live , crap music is lip synced .
I hope the younger kids see these performances, live performances.
two thumbs up from an old rock'n'roller!
Definitely worth dusting off. These are some classic, early performances. I knew about The Show because I'm a lifelong GFR fan, and knew they performed some of their early tunes there. Very cool to see--especially as a Pennsylvanian!
Did i miss part 2? I've seen 1,3 and now 4... thankyou so much for posting these!!*

I just subscribed to your channel and sooo glad I found these videos. Awesome ❤
Johnny Meastro! What a voice!
This was the "Midnight Special"before there was "The Midnight Special"👍
Yep, absolutely. The midnight special before the midnight special ❤
this is better. Midnight special was too commercialized. this is basic music.
Fantastic
Blew my mind that Dion DiMucci is DION , of Runaround Sue/The Wanderer fame !! Did not know that history . A pretty decent folkie in this iteration !
I would love to see more footage of Dion from this era. After the success of Abraham, Martin and John ca. 1968, he recorded several albums in the singer-songwriter vein that did not perform as well commercially, but are quite good. The solo acoustic LP Sit Down Old Friend is worth seeking out. Without overdubs or a backing band, Dion's voice and guitar playing really shine.
He did a blues album or two that were very good
One thing is certain. Zephyr were waaaaay ahead of their time.
Tommy!!
Tommy Bolin!
Finding any Zephyr film footage is GOLD!
Wow! Tommy!
No one is “ahead of their time”… that’s such a fallacy. We are each a product of, and a contribution to the unique time we exist in.
"Mr. Slow", Jam Factory. Great song!
!!FANTASTIC TIME CAPSULE!! 🏵️☮️ 🌹✌️🇨🇱
Found a episode guide on line any chance of the New York Rock & Roll Ensemble footage they were fantastic. But a big thank you for these 4 vols.
A real bummer as the Brooklyn Bridge perform a song that was only a B Side to a 45 called "He's Not A Happy Man" which can be heard at 51:37.

hope there will be other programs of this ''show 1970'' with the Amboy dukes ....
Unbelievable thank you God
This Tim Buckley composition is new to my ears that hears Buddy Guy's Watch Out from the Chess comp Walking Through The Woods
Doug Kershaw! Nice. Charlie Pride had a hit with that song-Louisiana Man.
Rare Earth took it for me. Heavy stuff at a time of anti job, comb and toothbrush hippies.
bolin, like 21, just a baby
Great to see a very young Tommy Bolin
I loved this old show, but personally, I would have rather seen less Ted Nugent and more Grand Funk Railroad, Iron Butterfly, Mountain, Youngbloods,Rare Earth, or Brooklyn Bridge. I was also shocked at Bill Haley and his Comets. Those guys are super talented and gave a master class on rock and roll. Dion also gave a glimpse into the incredible talent that he possessed.
Seriously, these should be in the Smithsonian. ❤
Zephyr...Candie Givens vocals, Tommy Bolan on guitar
The Nuge was killing it in 1970 already. Dion could have been David Soul's brother lol
Was that Spinal Tap doing "Jazz Odyssey " at the beginning of this video?
That bunch of Yankees didn"t know what to make of Doug Kershaw. AAAAEEEEEE!😂 I remember in the 80s he performed at a music awards in LA and those people didn't know what to make of the Louisiana Wild Man then either.
Tim Buckley refusing to just do the depressed folkie routine .
This is the Starsailor period in which he experimented and progressed musically.
@@CaryOn11 His last strong album . Legendary statement from a legend .
There are countless fans that would like to be made aware of this...
I dont think it has been available for decades..
if ever.

Who is that bass player singing for rare earth he can sing never heard anyone else except drummer?
Dig that acoustic 360 bass rig. I have two of them
Looks like Ted and the boys were following Deep Purple
Tommy Bolin /Zephyr @ 41.50
A young killer Tommy Bolin, so awesome
Ah.... Ted... All that great Detroit stuff. Back then.
Back in the stone age of sound tech.
Y cuando acabó el vídeo volví a la actualidad. ¡Bienvenido al tiempo donde la música regresó a la edad de piedra!
Tommy Bolin and Zephry.
TOMMY 💯.. c'mon David Givens release the Gig from 1970!!!
Thanks for your efforts, they are all great memories. Can you confirm who the show host was? Did it change each episode?
Wow! great that you could make another vol. How Long Were the shows when broadcast 30 mins or a hour?
A hour
A young Tommy Bolin playing with Zephyr.
Hey Clarke. Thanks for these great performances from The Show. How many actual shows were there, and are you uploading any more? Please God say yes :)
IN 1970 THE SHOW was a 26 week series. THE SHOW I, II, Iii and IV used up most all the music that was there.
@santeevideo OK. Thanks. So I guess a lot of the shows included students/audience chatting etc which took up a lot of the air time?
Clark did you work at WITF? My sister Mary (Bacon) Rosenkrans worked there and we were in the audience for Grand Funk Railroad
Ed,
I did work at WITF from 1969 and into 1972. After that I went free-lance as a producer-director specializing in the production of music programs for television. It was the good receprion I received from the Grand Funk piece that enabled me to make that move. It turned into a 50 year career, so I do feel a great deal of fondness for that day.

Remember when ted played hippie music.
Is that Phil Ochs, on the left in the thumbnail?
Yes, sitting next to Country Joe McDonald with a hair cut
Nugent was such a fantastic musician, it’s a shame he became such a lunatic.
haha, Ted aint never changed, he's always been that way.
@@hammer44head yeah the whole shitting your pants to avoid the draft was a little much lol
Dont watch him then
What's a good guitarist without a mixture of lunatic???
I'd bet that you couldn't debate Nugent for 5 minutes, what a dumb thing to comment
What Rare Earth song is that?
