    Harry Dean Stanton / The Replacements




    Pretty shitty quality, but Instant Gratification



    At least you get OG lineup drunk-ass Replacements, not the tryin-to-be-professional All-Star lineup of a few years later...

    Deborah Harry / Funky 4 +1 More (!!!)[/b]

    is there some sort of trade circut for tapes of shit like this? or does this stuff pop up on soulseek? I specifically want to see that Deborah Harry / Funky 4 episode.

    good luck with that. i searched for months for audio or video or image of the Funky 4 + 1 More performances for a paper on Sha Rock. this is all i found:

    The Malcolm Jamal Warner/Run DMC episode was just re-run on the E! network last week. The oldest episodes they run are all post-Eddie Murphy, so you won't get much of what you have on that list, but there's some good stuff on once in a while.

    I did have just the Funky 4 part... So it's around... The quality ain't the best tho... I lost it in a HD crash. Let me see if I can find it from the same dude again.

    Buck Henry / Sun Ra

    Zappa (guest and host)

    I caught both of these a few years ago on cable (I tuned in during the music strangely enough). I can't describe what they were like other than:



    All I remeber is Sun Ra had the Arkestra there and was in his own world, and Zappa's band was playing some mind blowing shit while changing time signatures.

    They should have a DVD of all the musical acts from the 70's through mid-eightys.
