Notes

Preceded by a 90-minute pilot special that aired in the summer of 1972. Later episodes dropped Burt Sugarman's name from the title.

The series usually featured musicians and actors as guest hosts, though for one season it experimented with having a regular host (singer Helen Reddy).

 The studio in Los Angeles where this was taped, had multiple stages to allow preparation of another vocalist or group's instruments, since most performances were "live" in concert.

The large red neon letters that one can see in band photos sometimes, were a clear hint where the photo was taken, as this was a signature backdrop used for the program for performers who used one of the side stages, for their appearance.

The 1972 pilot was hosted by the late John Denver with an appearance by Mama Cass Elliot.
