Ben Vereen Heaven On Their Minds clip?

I've long heard, in past forgotten circles of the much simpler online Broadway community, that a reel or news clip or press clip of Ben Verreen singing Heaven On Their Minds during the original run of Jesus Christ Superstar on Broadway exists. One of my long standing holy grails is to find any live footage/live audio of the original Jesus Christ Superstar production. Does anyone know if such footage of Ben really exists? Has anyone on here seen it and can confirm that it's even real?

The only break I've ever been able to find:

This site has a concert of Ben Vereen's from 1979 where he sings Heaven On Their Minds, I Don't Know How To Love Him, and Superstar but it cost $100 for a "pro membership" to download it. It looks like he sings less than a minute of Heaven On Their Minds before he transitions to IDKHTLH.
While I don't think it's important enough to spend $100, there's always something new to be uncovered and I haven't given up hope of finding a video or audio clip from the first Broadway production!
