5.0 out of 5 stars
It is what it is
The Midnight Special was known for live performances at a time when pretty much every other musical performance on television was lip-synched. BUT...this does not mean EVERY performance was live. Many were live, many were live vocals to a backing track (mostly for instruments) and some were out and out fake. If you know that going in, there's nothing to be disappointed...

That was the show. I'll settle for knowing that even the lip-synching was done to the artist's own recordings, and that means they actually COULD sing, unlike today's most capable talent, Auto Tune.
