We sat for hours like mindless, hypnotized, drooling zombies watching videos. My kids would be vegetables if MTV was now like it was back then! We used to stay up on Friday nights to watch the Midnight Special, too. Looking back makes my heart ache a little. Ah yes, the days before MTV and cable. Don Kirshner's Rock Concert and Midnight Special. Remember when they used to simulcast on FM radio so you could hear it in stereo on quality speakers? Here's a partial list of performers that were on Rock Concert. Pretty impressive lineup: ABBA Argent Badfinger Bachman-Turner Overdrive Joan Baez Bee Gees Black Oak Arkansas Blood, Sweat & Tears David Bowie The Byrds Jim Croce Devo The Doobie Brothers Eagles Earth, Wind & Fire Edgar Winter Group Electric Light Orchestra Fleetwood Mac Foghat The Guess Who The Hollies James Gang Johnny Winter Kansas B.B. King Kiss Melissa Manchester Manfred Mann's Earth Band Don McLean Ted Nugent Billy Preston Prince & The Revolution The Ramones Lou Rawls Helen Reddy The Rolling Stones Linda Ronstadt Todd Rundgren Rush Seals and Crofts Sly & the Family Stone Steely Dan Steve Miller Band Uriah Heep War Weather Report Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
