I never saw that show but I think that that type of music was mandatory on old documentaries. They used to regularly run “educational” films like that in school.

Just a storage deck. The peak is too low and the truss spaces too small to use it beyond that. I'll just run 3/4 plywood down the middle span, 8 wide and 36 long. Can hide a great many bass cases up there.
FUNk 'n Friday to ya...been out of sorts the last week. Gettin' back on track. Have fun with this one from 1988:
Saturday Reprise
It was a Saturday evening, February 7 1959, kids warmed up the TV and gathered around to watch the Town Hall Party TV Show.

The forrest fires are overwhelming some northern California areas. I pray that @SoulReflection manages to stay clear of the firestorm.
A Soulful Sunday contribution. See James Jamerson using his hook technique at 6:11.

This is burning hot
Spellbindingly good. Slow blues that keeps you on the edge of your seat.
Lotta dressed-up white folk looking kinda confused.
Looks like maybe the mid 60’s. Everyone was dressed up, even the band.
It didn’t go like this. [Background: In 1957, Buddy Holly was the first ever white group to play the Apollo theatre in Harlem. The guy that booked them thought that they were a black act. The audience apparently almost booed him off the stage during the first number.]

I have a John Lee Hooker story. I went to an afternoon show in an old theater in the early 70’s. We had center stage seats near the front. The place was almost empty. The band played some warmup songs then out comes the chair and John Lee. He played a long show for a small but enthusiastic group of fans. One of those days that you never forget.
.attended John Lee Hooker's funeral here in Oakland, CA... sad day...
