Cleveland hosted a rock n roll show each week for 7 years, competing with American Bandstand and Soul Train for a national audience. The first summary tape is enjoyable. The Fifth Dimension video is tightly scripted. The dancers for Edwin Starr and Stevie Wonder are iconic for this era. Otis Redding performed on the show just before his tragic plane crash.
