The first clip is a three-minute, mid-70s clip of Bob Hope, Bing Crosby, and John Wayne on the Tonight Show, with the sensational Don Rickles substituting for Johnny Carson. Note the Don Rickles comment to Crosby: "Bing, this is television." It's three minutes of sheer joy from four class acts. The thing I like most is the one-and-a-half minute standing ovation from the audience. When you see the audience you'll note that it is made up of mostly young kids, all dressed 70s-style, and they honor these classic and talented entertainers with vigorous applause.
Karen De Coster has posted some links to some entertaining YouTube clips from the '70's for some holiday diversion.
