TOTP clip on Ebay 18/6/70

[mattchurchett]

Hello all

I've lurked on this forum for a few years, but haven only just decided to make an account!

I've just discovered this clip for sale on ebay. The Kinks performing Lola from 1970.

cgi.ebay.co.uk/KINKS-Lola-Top-Pops-18th-June-1970-/130523754244?pt=UK_Music_Other_Music_Formats_ET&hash=item1e63d26f04

The seller states theres no logos, so it cant be from einsfestival, totp2 or UK Gold. I presumed this must be from the original showing.

The episode is listed as missing from lostshows, so I thought this might be worth chasing up

Ive also got some N1500 with unknown recordings, so I'll be looking at getting those to the right people

I wouldn't waste your money. This and many other clips of TOTP and other shows are available on an official Dutch DVD release, which is where I'm sure this was taken from. It's not that rare, and certainly not worth £12. It's in general circulation and not at all hard to find at DVD quality. I hope you haven't parted with any cash.

[mattchurchett]

Nah I havent bought it.

I just checked to see if it was from a missing episode, which it was. I thought it might be worth chasing up to see if the seller had the full episode.

I didnt realise this was already in circulation

No worries. It's always worth checking. Welcome to the forum

Where can i get a copy of the Dutch dvd ?, never seen that anywhere before?

[Danny Payne]

Actually just seen the Dutch dvd on ebay, but theres no Kinks - Lola listed on it ?

The BBC have this clip from the 18th June 1970 and it's also on the Dutch DVD entitled 1969-1970.
Not rare at all.

This is part of a series. Does anyone know if there are other interesting TOTP clips on other parts of the series?

[nicadare]

There are many TOTP performances on the Dutch BR DVDs.

Re Dutch dvd's, are the performances broadcast quality ? and do they have a 50 secs of useless information floating across the screen mid performance ? by the way the dvd on Ebay was a Dutch version of the TOTP 40 Anniversary, some slight diff track listing to the English version
