    Great post. I missed seeing the show because I was working graveyards back in those days. It was great seeing Bobby Darin. He was a fun entertainer to watch and listen to. As I was watching him perform, I was going to comment on how he compared to Billy Joel as a multi talented entertainer. While singing Splish Splash, he paid homage to Mr.Joel in the song, when he mentioned his name That impressed me at what a classy and cool thing he did...and Billy Joel ain't chopped liver either(smile). Maybe things such as that endeared many of us as fans of Mr Darin. He was just 'plain folks' who was a 110 mile an hour entertainer. Listening to how "rich"lol , his early life was may have parlayed into how he enriched ours lives with his gifts Rest in peace, Bobby Darin. I missed you then and still miss you now.

Trump, the Adulterer in Chief, has been married three times and made hush payments to a PORNSTAR and a PLAYBOY model. As to being a misogynist, trump is convicted by his own words, let alone actions. Remember his "grab em by the pussy" audio. The multiple bankruptcies, lawsuits, fines and penalties is quite indicative of his true criminal nature. The trump university scam was a criminal enterprise that was shut down. Trump's mentor early on was the famous, unscrupulous MOB lawyer Roy Cohn, a Fact most reasonable people would find disconcerting if they were aware of it. True trump derangement syndrome is what his supporters suffer from. It's main symptom is the inability to recognize what a conman trump is.

    • @MrJoeybabe25
      @MrJoeybabe25 Před 3 lety +5

      Yes. In fact those who had the very early satellite dishes (which were huge) could pick up the L.A. to NYC feed live.
      The feed would also include the unaired portions when they would go to commercial (which were added in New York).
      This became something of a scandal as Carson and company were unaware for sometime that the raw feed, with gossip, crude language and whatever else happened during the breaks, was being seen by these satellite viewers on their very expensive dishes.
      This lasted for a while until NBC got wise and encoded the feed.
      I'll bet some of these antics were recorded on early home vtr's and may be out there.
      It would be cool to see them.

    Seals and Crofts, like a more charismatic Simon and Garfunkel, they are a musical artifact I remember well. The 70’s were full of people like them and Cat Stevens that sort of serenaded us all blissfully. Great era for acoustic pop music.

      Made some bad choices but absolutely NO REGRETS.
      Now 75 with a rich storehouse of wonderful memories. From Johnny I learned how to have an interesting conversation with someone and how to be a good listener. Sad he had to leave. To quote Johnny himself, "Those DAMN CIGARETTES!"

      I don't know if it's still here but there was the audio books here on CZcams of the biography of Johnny Carson by the man who was his best friend and lawyer .
      What an extraordinary life he lived and they could easily make a wonderful miniseries from that book .
      Regrettably in the end he was lonely and didn't really have many friends left they say he was a recluse at the end of life and died a horrible cancer death .
      It was very sad and painful just listening to some of it towards the end .

      It’s hard to argue with Johnny’s appeal. Steve Allen was certainly an amazing talent who was quickly upgraded to prime time. Jack Paar was a fascinating personality and like Johnny and Steve, a smart and conversational host. Of the three since Johnny’s retirement, Conan is probably the most closest to the versatility of Carson. NBC did him wrong!

    Orson Bean, to me, was one of the great guests; always interesting, with funny asides and stories. Occasionally a very funny joke, too. Thanks for posting this hour and a half version. I know when Johnny renegotiated his contract (I think once Fred Silvlerman took over NBC), Johnny said he'd keep doing the Show, as "long as it was only 1 hour." Johnny always said the last 30 minutes "dragged," a bit.....but, that's on the schedulers, not the extra half hour. Anyway, these 70's Hour and a half versions are GOLD! Thank you for uploading it! By the way, as a HUGE everynight watcher of the Tonight Show, the funniest Show I remember is the day after Thanksgiving, 1981, with guests James Garner and Regis Philbin. Very few laughs, which created a ripe environment for Johnny and Ed, to go off script, and when Ed razzed Johnny due to lack of jokes, I think Johnny was at his funniest, in few laughs. IF ANYONE HAS THIS GEM, please post. I was out of town, and couldn't videotape it. Thanks!
