I was there too. It was for the short-lived Showtime series "Goin'
Platinum," and each episode spotlighted a different artist. I remember the
taping being done a month or two before the KEEPIN' THE SUMMER ALIVE LP was
released, so this would've been Jan-Feb 1980. The taping was done at KTLA
Studios on Sunset in Hollywood, and five songs were lipsynched. IIRC they
were "Keepin' The Summer Alive," "Oh Darling," "Some Of Your Love," "Goin'
On," and "Sunshine" (the last one is the only one on which I'm not quite
sure). The program aired on Showtime in May 1980.
Anyone have a copy of the show? I'd love to find a copy.
