From my faulty memory.... "Harry Chrimble to you, Garry Mimble to you, Bette Davis, dear Christmas, Happy Birthday,me too!" [Ahem] "They'd like to thank you for a wonderful year." ;D

Hope all who celebrate Christmas here had a great one and happy holidays to all.
My favorite secular Christmas song is by far Darlene Love's version of "Christmas(Baby Please Come Home)" produced, of course, by Phil Spector and appearing on his 1963 Christmas album, a true rock and roll classic.
My question is did Darlene Love ever do a 1963 or early 1964 television promo(video) to promote it or did she appear on any of the contemporary shows to plug it? If so, I'd love to see it.
I have searched YouTube and am finding only videos of the original record accompanied by photos some YouTuber put together or much later live recordings. I am looking for an old black and white video close in time to the record's release.
Darlene appears on David Letterman every Christmas season to sing this classic and I caught her again this past Wednesday, December 23rd. Her 1995 Letterman appearance is my favorite and it is easy to find on YouTube.
Thanks if anyone can post a video of this song near in time to its original release!
