Remember The Midnight Special?

Kids, long before MTV there was a show everyone stayed up to watch on Saturday nights, and that show was called The Midnight Special. It ran from 1972-1981 and it featured all the cool groups of the day. I have many a fond memory of sitting on the couch, eagerly awaiting that night’s concert. Below you’ll find a few of my favorite acts featured on one of the greatest TV shows ever. Enjoy. Oh, and be sure and check out some of the fashion. Outstanding.

CHEAP TRICK: “SURRENDER”

AL GREEN: “LET’S STAY TOGETHER”
