TOTP performances 25 December 1979. IMHO the cutest babe ever to grace the TOTP studios. Original transmission recording with no silly logos or stupid voiceovers a la TOTP2. Can this really be over 28 years ago?
Phil Spector: Wall Of Sound
The Crystals - Da Doo Ron Ron
The Ronettes - Be My Baby
Two great performances with reminiscences from Larry Levine and Stan Ross, Jeff Barry who co-wrote both songs, and also from Nino Tempo.
Bert Kaempfert - Medley (1967) for Rick and Erica Staton
Smooth as Silk performance - live on German TV - 26th August 1967. This was the second day of colour tramsmissions in Germany. "Gala-Abend der Schallplatte" was a live show from the 25th Funkausstellung IFA in Berlin intended to showcase international artistes and the new technology of colour TV. Yes folks - over 40 years ago!!
Theme from Rocky - James Last Orchestra [feat. Derek Watkins]
Theme from the film Rocky 1 "Gonna Fly Now" played by James Last, a live recording from German TV series. Featuring Derek Watkins on lead trumpet, complete with neat guitar and percussion breaks. Here Derek gives Maynard Ferguson a run for his money!
