Bob Pittman & Lee Masters (Jarl Mohn) from WNBC Radio New York host 'Album Tracks', late night on NBC4 New York- an early pilot for MTV. This clip features music news bites and a spotlight on STYX, and the second single "Fooling Yourself" from 1977's landmark LP, The Grand Illusion. Very Rare clip. November 1977.
What a same that Bob Pittman's vision of MTV does not focus on music and any more and too much reality based trashed but then this is some guy that helped Morton Downey to be a success too. I hope MTV that people what MUSIC News and videos again.
This reminds me of the what MTV used to be. Has that classic vibe. to it
