An evening pause: Performed live on the Lawrence Welk show, May 18, 1963. Note that was a successful rock band instrumental, a decade before art rock became a thing.

On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The print edition can be purchased at Amazon. from any other book seller, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News
i don’t see any instrument cables, were they actually playing, or was it lip-synch (for lack of a better word)?
i might have actually seen this, my grandma always watched Laurence Welk. i turned eleven the day before.
It’s odd to see just how horrible video recording was then.

“i don’t see any instrument cables, . . .”
Ooooh. Good call! I would venture that only the drummer was actually ‘playing’. I had read the comment prior to watching, and noticed that there are some percussive flourishes not in the presentation. Killer tune, but best enjoyed some place sandy and warm.
