Song and Dance Man

Peter Graves looking absolutely gorgeous appearing on the Dean Martin show in 1969 and 1970. You wouldn't think from looking at the top photos that their dresses were bright orange! But there's a snippet of this number, 'A Well Known Fact', in the memorial video on youtube, and there they are in orange nightdresses. (You can also see another few snippets of these shows, including a short bit of clarinet playing.)

Why, why, why aren't these Dean Martin episodes available online? I want to see more of Peter singing and dancing and playing the clarinet! And doesn't he look happy in the top one, surrounded with ladies?
