About this listen

In the spirit of giving thanks, we wanted to say thank you to everyone with a VINTAGE re-release of The Early Years of SNL that celebrates an episode of Saturday Night Live that originally aired 50 years ago this week. This episode of SNL comes only six weeks into the show's existence and yet the Lily Tomlin-hosted affair is one of the very best of the show's first season.

The show is just beginning to see the reward for recurring bits as Chevy Chase's Gerald Ford and Landshark both make their return to the program, as does Garrett Morris' “News for the Hard of Hearing.” We also get original material in the form of John Belushi's Beethoven impression, a commercial parody for "Spud Beer," and the legendary "Hard Hats" sketch. Lily even makes The Muppets bearable!

This episode was originally released on May 2nd, 2023.
