    Again, I must profusely thank you for your tireless effort to track these down, painstakingly compile and then share them with all of us. You will have a special place in weird culture collector/compiler heaven.
    These segments are perhaps single handedly responsible for my own thrift store crate digging obsession when I was a teenager.

    Thanks so much for posting these! What a trip down memory lane. I was class of '87 in high school, and watched Letterman religiously. This show has shaped my sense of humor every bit as much Monty Python, SNL, and SCTV.

    +Don Giller - There was one of these segments I will never forget. I was about 18 and had just come back home from hanging with my buddies... and getting rather stoned. I turned on the TV to Dave (A record collection segment! Sweet!) and went to the fridge for a cold drink. I poured a glass of the iced tea my Mom had made earlier and sat down on the couch, happy, high, and ready to enjoy some Dave.
    Just as I was thinking how awesome and delicious my glass of iced tea was, Dave started playing a vintage record from the "American Iced Tea Council" or something like that. It was a silly little 1950's "Let's All Go To The Lobby" type of jingle with lyrics along the line of "Why don't you have iced tea more often... doesn't it sound just right?"
    I froze mid-swallow and realized: *"Holy shit. Dave can read my thoughts."*
    Thanks for posting these. Brings back a lot of memories. And paranoid thoughts!

      They only own Dave’s 1980 morning show and 1993-2015’s Late Show. They don’t own 1982-93’s Late Night.
      And streaming would have to eliminate all - and I mean _all_ of the music, as securing the rights would be prohibitively expensive.

      spuzzlightyeartoo Hmm -- not sure what the problem is. I checked, and it's playing ok on my iPad.

      yeah, so from everything else is playing except for this video. I'm watching it in the pooter though, so all is not lost 😀

    On the June 21 show, he mentions someone who has a movie review show on Manhattan Cable channel D... who is it? The guests listed (Al Braverman, Albert Hague, Cynthia Heimel) don't fit Dave's description of "a young man."

      That was 14-year-old Gregg Goldstein.
      The other guests on that show were Albert Hague, which you listed, and Franken & Davis. Cynthia Heimel never appeared on Late Night.

      Wait, are you saying an online guest database has mistakes in it? I am shocked ;) Thank you for answering and keep up the great posts, TheDonz

    I guess people actually bought those Leonard Nimoy albums (why ?) because he kept making more of them...

    They actually made a video of that song. It is rediculously embarrasing

      Which song? There are many in this collection.

    So much of '60s music like that was just straight garbage. It all sounded like the singer was singing over an entirely different song.
