When Dick Cavett joined the late-night talk show parade in 1969, his intelligent wit pumped a much-needed breath of fresh air into the format. The show offered guests a forum for controversial opinions and didn't shy away from an occasional debate about women's liberation or the war in Vietnam. The Dick Cavett Show also became the late-night home of rock 'n' roll, with a guest list that reads likes a who's who of the era's top performers. This release Includes Janis Joplin's final TV appearance, two months prior to her death and a 20-year-old Stevie Wonder performing the title track from his album 'Signed Sealed Delivered' just days before its release.
