Great clip. I suspected it was not a new find.

Most certainly not. Sounds as if they've been going thru the tapes of Dave's old sets and editing out some of the vintage clips.  They're using his bumpers and year IDs quite a bit too.
Let's get right to it.

Yeah, I agree. The groove is kinda cool, but that dude's singing ruins it.

That seems like a fair amount of work (which could be put into original research, say).

Maybe it's a parlor trick -- "watch me sing this song while drinking this glass of water!". 

I wouldn't WOS it myself because it's a pretty cool groove otherwise.

The Box Tops "The Letter"
Funny, I've always connected the Boxtops with the Grass Roots. I think I had them confused a lot of the time. And here they are in the same set.

Dang that song is short. Must be 1:50.
