September 1, 1965 - James Brown and Booker T. & the MGs appeared on Shindig! One of the popular TV shows that came out in the mid 60s aimed at the youth audience. It came out as a replacement for the show, Hootenanny, that had capitalized on the folk revival which had fizzled. It was a variety show that featured popular bands and singers of the day, both British and American as well as dancers. Glen Campbell was a backing guitarist in the show band, and Leon Russell on piano. The show had a short life span, but was good while it lasted. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Shindig!
