G'day all.
Just made an excellent find on YouTube while doing my search for old videotaped programs from the 50s. Some of you might have heard about the earliest surviving B&W videotape recording being "The Edsel Show" on CBS which was recorded on quad tape on 13th October 1957

He has also uploaded "An Evening With Fred Astaire" as well, whilst there are plenty of uploads and the bootleg recordings off the Disney Channel being widley available, this one is complete with the original glorious 1959 Chrysler Corporation live car commercials which the common bootleg version didn't have and seeing them it's totally wow, especially the closeup shots!!!
Anyhow also here it is in 5 parts:
