I STILL remember-or THINK I do-of a special from the '70s that had an early, early, early color telecast of Marlene Dietrich singing "Lili Marlene", backed by an orchestra. There was very little color- She was in a dk blue/black dress, the orchestra wore black tuxes, about the only colors were the fleshtones & the gilt of the instruments. It LOOKED like a kinescope-and the camera overloaded badly when catching the glare of the lights on the instruments. They said it was from 1949, IIRC, but that would be WAY too early for any known color broadcasts. Anybody else remember this ?
