It was around the time when this song was a hit that the Sisters had a concert on PBS that impressed the heck out of me.
Here it is. "Yes We Can Can" starts at around 8:28.

I think my first two PBS concerts simulcast on FM stereo radio were Cat Stevens followed by Leon Russell and Friends or vice versa

...WSDM and later WCKG (I think) ran those FM simulcast.
We didn't have a stero in our living room with the 25" color console.
But, I would watch on my 12" B&W in my bedroom with the stereo on.
I clearly remember the Harry Chapin episode because I thought it was so cool he added a cellist to his little ensemble. (As I recall, Harry, another guitar & cello.)
There were others, but I vividly remember the Chapin show.
