The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson (12-17-1969) 

Very cool!! He must've been talented.

From Paterson NJ , my Dad just passed was a few years younger but knew Bucky. He was a became a captain in the Paterson police department. Saw John ( Buckys son ) on broadway a Frank Sinatra tribute show . You ?? Or your brother ?❤

I play the bass ..was in that show

Yea great show it was . Took my mom and dad to see it , you and your brother John . So your Martin , the ole timers from Paterson all knew each other . Thanks for the info .

Coincidentally, I recently bought I used copy of a book called The Big Bands by George Simon. Tucked inside was a program from a 1980 Jazz Festival in New Jersey signed by your father and brother John!

Usually you need Pepto afterwards

! 🐽!

Every wedding should have Mrs. Brady singing....

@@yankeechicken61 😂🤣👍

No one like Dic! So talented and great sense of humor and funky style!

Just the way it was done back then - NBC needed the videotape!

@@bobjohnson205 True, but when Johnny found out, he was livid. Starting keeping his own archives!

@@VideoAmericanStyle Yeah, he couldn't believe what NBC had been doing! Shocked him to heck. Thank goodness Johnny wasn't as cheap as NBC, otherwise we'd have no 'Tonight Show' episodes to view!

I think Johnny had more recordings like this.

Three Dog Night experienced the same with their recorded master tapes by ABC/Dunhill.

Yea I remember those ads. My late aunt used to smoke those.

Yea so do I

That one made me lol. I forgot cigarette commercials could be so goofy. The only ones I really remember are Marlboro. 😂

I watched it, at the time it aired! The year before my HS Graduation; still can’t believe this couple! Tiny Tim and Ms Vickie; icons of the time!

Same here. I've heard about this episode for many years but this is my first time watching it. I was in 1st grade during this time in 1969 ....and it was a school night and way past my bedtime :(

I'm sure that both Johnny & Ed are glad about that!! 😅!

Your parents let you stay up and watch the wedding? I was 5 years old too but was sound asleep in bed. I remember watching the moon landing though.

@@retroguy9494 I distinctly remember watching it, would usually wake up during the night and see what was on TV, most times it was those old horror movies!

I didn't watch this when it aired because I was only 5 years old and naturally was in bed. However, I DID watch the moon landing. I remember my mother making me watch it because she said not only was I a witness to one of the greatest moments in history, but I would remember it all my life and be able to tell my children and grandchildren about it. Well, I ended up an old bachelor. But I still remember watching it.

A copy (maybe a 16mm film copy made for Armed Forces Television) is out there. (Found in an underground archive. Had hoped that other episodes would have been found in the find)

This is clearly a master tape so obviously there’d be no affiliate breaks.

It's all explained in the description.

So do I. I remember the 'Alpo' commercials with Ed and the dog.

Its there. They seem to be releasing them in dribs and drabs , here and there. Consequentely the price for tge DVDs goes up as the shows get more complete & closer to the beginning (1962). I've been collecting the Carson shows for over 20 years, and its funny - in the late 90s, before Johnny died it was said that these shows did NOT exist. Then they'd bring out a box set....then another , and once Carson died another compilation. It sure seems to me that the shows ARE There. Carsons estate probably owns the majority - with NBC most likely the rest. Face it, these shows are worth more than double thier weight in gold, and when big money is involved - they can move mountains. You correctly named the only area where complete shows are scarce....62' to 70'. I'm totally convinced that they will magically materialize in the near future... .$$$

Let's NOT EVER mention -- the Song of Norway . A complete TURKEY and a Sound of Music knock-off !

Didn't The Brady Bunch premiere in September 1969?

Huh? Johnny literally says "she stars in The Brady Bunch."

It was still early in the series, and of course, it wasn't yet a cult classic, but the Bradys were definitely on tv by then.

I have to do the whole video processing again and with my old computer that is 15 years old would take time. The wedding part is on the official johnny carson channel in better quality.

Tiny Tim and Miss Vicky's marriage didn't last long.

I DESPISE COMMERCIALS

Tiny Tim's given name was Herbert Buckingham Khaury.

The Larry Sanders Show...

This is from an NBC master tape. Those black spots were where local stations would air their own commercials. Network commercials are still included.

"Salem gently air-softens every puff"

I bought mine today. $11 a pack now. I remember when they were 89 cents a pack.

@@ChadQuick270WGood thing you’re not in NYC-$17 per pack

@@user-tv8mg2vh5f good god! I remember when a carton was $9

was not too long after a lot of persons ‘forgot’ (cig ads on TV banned around the turn of 1970)

Probably a home-recording via one of the early VCRs, which mostly rich people could afford until the 1980s. It most likely made its way to the bootleg circuit and is now on RU-vid.

For a short time after Johnny retirement, you could buy vhs 📼 master copies of the full episodes. They had to shut it down because of copyrights, especially the music and NBC. They seemed to be more lient now.

@@Rlinks But this is during the first ten years. All the official master tapes of the first ten years were erased by NBC.

They wanted to keep it private for them. At least that was the reasoning.

what she was 8?

@davidblanc458 no, they were Married 8 years

@@davidblanc458 She was 17. He was 37.

I’d be very shocked if they actually consummated it.

I forgot already about the madhouse nightmare. Let me out I'm not like these peeps!

That is where the local tv 📺 stations would put their local commercials. This is a copy of the network feed. That is why you don't see any local commercials.

@@RlinksThanks. Makes sense now

You're going blind. 😅😅😅😅😅😅😅

You should have taken the time to read the video description.

@@bobjohnson205Ahh, I only saw the basic description. Never hit the “more” prompt so obviously that provides the answer.
