Great live version of "When the Radio is On" from Shaffer's first album - much more energy than the studio version - all star lineup with Dion Dimucci, Will Smith, Ellie Greenwich, Carole Kane, Johnny Maestro, Daddy O... - from 1989 David Letterman Show

  • That's Carol Kane from "Taxi"!!! She was Latka's girlfriend. She also knocked out one of Bill Murray's teeth with a toaster in "Scrooged"

  • Yes it is. Carol King was on the studio track and the official video, but could not make is show. So Paul got another "Carol K." to fill in. I recall they were in a movie together, so that could be how they met.

  • Pretty innovative when it comes down to it.

  • R.I.P. Johnny Maestro (1939-2010) ~ Ellie Greenwich (1940-2009)

  • @geoff101001 umm... really? If he wasn't famous then, why would PS introduce him? And why would he be what was really the main act? That was the pinnacle of his musical career.

  • Notice how just at the end Paul says "Hello Eileen Brennan by the way hope..." I think this was his shout out to "Private Benjamin" star Eileen Brennan because she had been in a car accident and had her hip smashed in... She is close friends with Carol Kane so she had probably told him!

  • WOW! where has this been hiding

  • that guy in the begining got cut off, and hes not happy

  • They should have kept the camera on Carol Kane the whole time. Man, she was (is) gorgeous.

  • *happy sigh* I watched this the night it aired.  Love, love, love.

  • Matisyahu who?

  • The difference between being Will Smith or being MC Hammer is a thin line indeed.
