Comic-musician Pete Barbutti plays the broom and does other bits. The magnificent Marvin Gaye shows up but appears to be only lip syncing. Classic comedy ensemble The Committee perform, but Howard Hesseman is nowhere in sight. The most recognizable member is Barbara Bosson who would star in Hill Street Blues a decade later. The highlight of the show is the Byrds. This is the lineup with Clarence White on lead guitar. The numbers include two Dylan songs, You Ain't Goin' Nowhere and Wheels On Fire. Clarence lays down some spectacular licks and Roger McGuinn is in fine voice. Barbi Benton sits in front of the band during their performance. It's early in the show and she's not yet Hef's co-host.
