No complete recording of this episode exists, although one Beatles fan captured a few minutes of the Lennon/McCartney segment off-screen with an 8mm movie camera. Another made a crude cassette recording of the segment. Each were later bootlegged. A transcript of the interview is available online.
John Lennon and Paul McCartney appeared on this episode, to promote the Beatles' newly-founded Apple Corps. Reportedly their interview with guest-host Joe Garagiola didn't go well; Lennon and McCartney were disappointed that Johnny Carson wasn't hosting that night, while Garagiola found little to talk about with the pair.
