Hosted by standup comedian David Steinberg, ABC television's Music Scene was a unique, eclectic, and never-equaled program that the network nevertheless canceled after half a season. It aired prime time on Tuesday nights and ran an unusual slot-time of 45 minutes (paired with Aaron Spelling's 45-minute dramatic series The New People, about hip college kids stranded on an island). Music Scene regulars included Lily Tomlin and Larry Hankin. This sixth episode in the video release of the series features James Brown performing "Mother Popcorn," Dusty Springfield doing "A Brand New Me" and "The Look of Love," The Everly Brothers harmonizing a medley of their hits, Joe Cocker singing "Something," and Zager & Evans singing their hit sci-fi song about the "progress" of humanity, "In the Year 2525."

Steinberg went on to become a successful television director. Steve Blackburn, Rovi
