Peter, Paul, & Mary took a decided turn toward pop music in 1968 with "I Dig Rock & Roll Music", which was getting a good chunk of airplay on oldies channels.
The performance footage comes from Jonathan Winters' short-lived variety show, plus footage of The Mamas & The Papas, who were referenced in the lyrics, plus Creedence Clearwater Revival, The Animals, Three Dog Night, and other contemporary acts of the era.
In memory of Peter Yarrow, who has passed away at 86. Rest in peace.
