Curious... what kind of camera are they using?

Good idea. So far this is what I've found.

"Glass Harp is a rock band formed in Youngstown, Ohio in 1968 consisting of Phil Keaggy, drummer John Sferra and bassist Daniel Pecchio."

"In early 1972, Glass Harp was asked to play a live concert for a local PBS TV station to be simulcast in stereo on a local radio station."

"GLASS HARP - Circa 72 Excellent Cleveland PBS broadcast from the early 70s. Prior to television being broadcast in stereo, this was the first time that a concert was simulcast live on TV and FM radio. WMMS in Cleveland provided the stereo feed and the PBS station did the video."

Pretty much confirms what colortrakker says. Thanks for the info and effort.


I got to be in the audience at our local PBS station KERA for a program done similar to this, called "Jazz Here and Now" which I have on tape, but that was around 1979.
