Peter,

That's The Byrds' famous Ed Sullivan Show TV appearance, Sunday, December 12, 1965, when they performed "Mr. Tambourine Man" and "Turn! Turn! Turn!"

Video of this is available from a variety of sources.

I have this poster too!

Also, what Byrd videos do you recommend?

I know there is the one hour video anthology ('65-69) out there, and I think there is a two-hour documentary as well. What do y'all recommend for the utmost viewing pleasure?

Also, why didn't they include any footage of the Byrds on the Monterey Pop documentary? I mean, jeez, Momma Cass even shook her sass, yet lo, no Byrds!

There is footage from Monterey that I've seen as part of mtv/vh1 documentaries, I'm not sure but these clips may be included with the recent video release (Rhyno)-- I'm not sure if these are complete songs or just parts.
Still interesting since the "official" word was that the cameras were out of film!
But as the recent re-issue discoveries have shown--who knows "What's Happenening!?!?!?"
