‘Midnight Special’ YouTube Channel

[silverfish]

The Midnight Special, the once hugely popular music program that featured such now legendary
performers of the 1970s and early ’80s as David Bowie, Tina Turner, Elton John and too many
others to list, is now available to watch on YouTube.

Producer Burt Sugarman announced today’s launch of the Midnight Special YouTube channel,
noting that the channel will make available performances that have not been seen in nearly 50
years (at least officially – bootleg copies have circulated for years; some performances from the
show were previously available on DVD).

Rod Stewart, Tina Turner and Stand Up Comedy.

Really shows that there wasn't a great reason that we had to endure miming on the majority of music TV shows like this throughout the 70s and 80s, this sounds absolutely good.

I remember when this one was on. I didn't actually see it live, because it was really late on a school night or whatever. Just remember my dad complaining about "those goddamn filthy hairy hippies".....
