Yes it could conceivably be from Julie Felix - however TOTP2 has got it's facts wrong in the past. Fleetwood Mac did appear on the surviving 24/5/70 edition but that particular line-up may not have still been together at this point. I did think it could have been from the Colour Me Pop show. Just a possibility though.

Colour Scaffold & Fleetwood Mac 'Albatross' were both from the often repeated 'Pop Goes The Sixties' which was broadcast on 31/12/69 with Saville & a German bird from ZDF. Most of the show is performed in TOTP studios. I think Marmalade & Tom Jones are from prev. shows.

IIRC Scaffold and Fleetwood Mac aren't in the 'Pop Goes the Sixties' show....
Marmalade was recorded during the studio session for the 1969 Xmas show and may be the same performance or a different one (as with the Rolling Stones).

Most of the show is performed in TOTP studios. I think Marmalade & Tom Jones are from prev. shows. I don't think these two clips are from Pop Goes The Sixties - all the other clips I've seen from that show e.g. Kinks, Adam Faith - have a very obvious TOTP look, replete with visible audience. Anyway, just to make sure people are talking about the same clips, I've put up captures of the first 30 seconds or so of the Fleetwood Mac and Scaffold clips: www.drykid.plus.com/captures/scaffold.mpg www.drykid.plus.com/captures/fleetwood_mac.mpg Unfortunately the captures are only in black and white (couldn't work out how to capture the pseudo-PAL output from my LD player in colour.) |

The Blue Mink and Fleetwood Mac clips are definitely not from Pop Goes The Sixties. I have a copy of the full BBC documentation for this and these acts did not feature in it.
Just to clarify where some of the clips referred to here are actually from: the Marmalade clip (Ob-la-di) was originally recorded as part of TOTP '69 Pt.1 (25/12/69) - this was then re-used in Pop Goes The Sixties a week later. The Rolling Stones recorded two inserts: Honky Tonk Women (again, for TOTP '69 Pt.1) and Gimme Shelter (for Pop Goes The Sixties). The Tom Jones clip used in Pop Goes The Sixties was a t/r repeated from a regular 1968 TOTP (intersperced with occasional cutaways to the Pop Goes The Sixties studio audience dancing).
Therefore, i'm still left wondering where the Blue Mink and Fleetwood Mac clips emanate from. Curiouser and curiouser...

Answers:
Blue Mink - from The Young Generation 7-2-70
Fleetwood Mac - from Julie Felix 24-5-70.
The Peter Green line-up was still just about together at this point and went on to do their last TV appearance together on Disco 2 broadcast just 6 days later on 30-5-70.

Ah! Mystery solved! Thanks. I wondered if Peter Green was still around at this point or not. Good that you also solved the Blue Mink mystery - I can sleep tonight...

While we're on the subject can you confirm the origin of the black and white "Oh Well" clip which gets shown from time to time? I vaguely remember someone saying it was from something hosted by Alan Price, but I may be mixing things up here. |

The b/w Fleetwood Mac clip of Oh Well is from a short-lived BBC children's show called "Monster Music Mash" ( also with Alan Price). It lasted 6 episodes between October and November 1969. I'm not sure if the whole edition exists or just that clip. Another segment from the edition featuring Slade also survives, part of which has been used on TOTP2 previously.
Just checking the Kal guide and the 7/2/70 edition of The Young Generation doesn't mention Blue Mink appearing - is this just an oversight?

I think so - the guests on that edition apart from Blue Mink were Billy Preston, Francoise Hardy, Nino Tempo & April Stevens if that helps.

Yes. Thanks. The rest ties in so it must have been an oversight.

The Scaffold clip is probably from a show called "Score With The Scaffold" from 1969  |

According to the Kal guide, all episodes of Score With The Scaffold are missing, so I don't know where the clip comes from exactly .

Dear top of the pops on video fans. there is also a 1964 part2 ', as with 1967, but I don't know if the hollies are on that from memory. There are also those two top of the pops volumes, where the only chance all pickettywitch fans have of seeing "same Old Kinda feeling". Incidentally it is worth picking up(When you can) copies inthe red colour around the sleeve, rather than the blue; as the print of the pickettywitch clip is a bit better on those copies.
Best Regards Chartman.
