Here’s a rare treat. This video has not been seen since it was shot on October 6, 1978. In an opening skit, the cast of SNL and The Rolling Stones are seen blocking shots. Featured in this behind-the-scenes look at what happens during an SNL rehearsal are John Belushi, Dan Ackroyd, Bill Murray, Gilda Radner, Jane Curtin, Larraine Newman, Al Franken, Tom Davis, Garrett Morris, Also seen are Lorne Michaels, Director Dave Wilson, and a very funny performance by Paul Shaeffer doing his Don Kirschner impression. Of course, all the Stones are included as well.
It’s a very interesting look at how the SNL cast and crew worked to put the show together in this rehearsal with The Rolling Stones for their Season 4 premiere.
