And now, a little look back ...
1/18/2017 - I spoke with Scott Creighton the other day and he told me about how his father was always filming people and things with his 8mm camera. One day when the North Campus Chorale was on The Larry Ferrari Show his dad pointed the camera at the TV set and captured a little bit of it. This was before home movie cameras had sound so none of the audio was captured. Still, it's fun to see Larry on the organ, the kids in the group, and Bucky Clark conducting.
This is a large file, about 21 Mb, so hopefully you have a fast internet connection. Creighton Choir Clip

The first photo is of Miss Walter's 1st grade class. Dave said: "The very homely looking one in the middle is yours truly." He's in the top row with (I think) Kevin Corcoran in front of him.
