Thanks Dave. It looks and sounds like the regular Xmas '73 performance/links to me, but I may be wrong. I`m quite sure you`re right Neil. All the pictures and the audio clip without doubt is Xmas Day 1973.

I wish you luck in finding this elusive audio.
Some obscure stuff turns up on the file sharing networks, but so far I've not found anything that's "missing". Even some of the totp stuff that shows up in the german "disco" program. Isn't it all documented somewhere?

More info: I dug out my 1988 "Glam Rock" vhs, and that happens to have Blockbuster also. I played it back, and the first thing you notice is that the costumes and set are identical to the mpg I have. Secondly, they are not the same performance, now that I've had a chance to compare. If anybody in interested in looking at the mpg I'll post it somewhere. It's 50MB as is, but I can recompress to make it smaller. Cheers, Dave

The Sweet performed 'Blockbuster' on Xmas 1973 TOTP and Steve Priest was wearing a swastika armband. A second take was made making sure not to show the offending swastika.

The studio recording of the Xmas 73 TOTP has two takes of the song. Both almost identical. The only difference I could see is that one member of the band is wearing a swastika armband. This is shown in one take and cropped out of frame in the other.
The unused "swastika" take is on the Glam Rock Vol 2 video. The other take is used elsewhere (e.g. TOTP2).

Gary
You're a star for posting that Sweet link that has "Teenage Rampage" from TOTP on it.
I bought the single when I was 9 years old and remember watching TOTP in the hope that it would be shown but every time I tuned in it wasn't on.
Fast forward 31 years and hey presto!!
