I can remember seeing that as a kid.  Dang he's good.  That whole band is just TIGHT.  No lip-synching going on there.

I love the kid up on the fire escape steps just totally rockin' out.

Jesus Christ. That is possibly the most wonderful thing ever.

That is perfect. That is tight. Damn. Why did I never get to wake up to this?

Hot damn! 

The only thing that could have made that better is if the cameraman hadn't been furiously intent on ignoring the bassist.

He just wasn't great enough to compete with that crazy kid and the saxophonist wearing the Coolest Shirt Ever.

I forgot how much I love that song, until this very moment.

Thank you Carlos Ben Hur, truly you are king of kings.

I've watched it several times over the course of the day today and all I can say is wow, that beats Barney and the Teletubbies all to hell.

No wonder my generation is so fuck*ng cool.

A few months ago I saw Patti LaBelle deliver the absolute best Alphabet Song ever.  Wonder if that's on YouTube.
