Chuck starts the show with an "long"--that is, 2-minute version--of Johnny B. Goode, then gets to trade (not share, but trade) songs with Gerry and the Pacemakers. Chuck plays 50-60 seconds of one of his hits, then Gerry plays a full 2-minute-plus version of one of his hits, then Chuck plays another 45 seconds of "Sweet Little 16" (complete with a nubile blonde Go-Go Girl dancing behind him) and Gerry plays a full version of one of his songs, and so on.

Mr. Berry laughs through the whole thing, probably thinking about his check at the end of the show for playing 4 snippets of his songs, but almost 50 years later I'm freaked over why they didn't just give him a whole set (or DVD) to hisself.

The funniest part of that film is when the Stones come on, after James Brown's tour-de-force of dancing, acrobatics, singing, and soul godfathering, Mick tries to dance in a similar manner. Shoulda stuck to the singing!
