TMS TV show's most outstanding 1977 performances are combined in one hi-def video. Wikipedia: The Midnight Special featured musical acts performing live, which was unusual since most television appearances during the era showed performers lip-synching to prerecorded music. The American late-night musical variety TV series was originally broadcast from NBC Studios in Burbank, CA on NBC during the 1970s and early 1980s, created and produced by Burt Sugarman.

The Midnight Special premiered as a special on August 19, 1972, then began its run as a regular series on February 2, 1973; its last episode was on May 1, 1981. The 90-minute television musical program followed the Friday night edition of The Tonight Show Starring Johnny Carson.
