New YouTube Page Offers Rarely Seen "Midnight Special" Performances

The producer of the concert show, which ran on NBC in the 1970s, offers up long unseen vintage performances from the likes of David Bowie, Led Zeppelin, The Beach Boys, Aretha Franklin and Fleetwood Mac - just to name a few. There are also comedy performances from George Carlin and Richard Pryor among others.

According to producer Burt Sugarman, these clips are the real deal. 

“I insisted on live performances in front of an audience, there was no lip syncing. I’m thrilled that it will be available for all fans, as well as a new generation of viewers who may not be familiar with the show. Audiences can enjoy hours of classic performances and interviews from the biggest stars of that era.” 

You can find the page - and all its videos - here.
