TOTP perfs on Official VHS & DVD

[Pete Seaton]

I know a lot of glam rock artists feature on TOTP on the Glam Rock 1,2, & 3 VHS and Blockbusters by the sweet, and a few T.Rex Video's

are there any more VHS & DVD appearances ??

There's a Yazoo CD/DVD box set which was released last year which has all Yazoo's BBC performances.

Radiohead CD/DVD box sets issued this year has a lot of TOTP performances.

Siouxsie & The Banshees issued an "At the BBC" CD/DVD this year which I think has all her TOTP appearances.

Paul Weller's Hit Parade DVD has a few Jam TOTP performances, mainly where a promo video wasn't made.

The Specials, Beat & Madness had the odd TOTP performance on their hits video/DVD.

There are a bunch of Judas Priest TOTP performances on one of their DVDs, I cant remember which one right now. Ditto Gillan.

[Jeff Lewis]

The John Lennon Collection features one of his TOTP performances of 'Instant Karma'

[Phil Chappell]

Mccartney DVD has 'Juniors Farm' TOTP performance, Bowie has 'Starman' on his hits DVD.

The "Remember '60s" series of DVDs has a few TOTP clips on there (Steve & Albert: Follow The Bouncing Ball from 1970 is one I can think of) along with the odd Colour Me Pop number (The Move). I seem to recall that a Roxy Music release from some years back used a TOTP clip or two of them (Virginia Plain, I seem to think). The T.Rex On TV DVD used five TOTP clips (as preserved on the ZDF Disco programme). I reckon there must be others.

The oft-repeated 'Maggie May' by Rod - football and mandolin-miming John Peel in tow - was released on a 'Rod Stewart and Faces comp a few years ago - spoiled by the superimposition of some 'newspaper clips'.

[Pete Seaton]

not forgetting the 2x TOTP 25 years VHS and a 1996 TOTP VHS, and 2 DVD TOTP 40th anniversary (both UK and NED)

I THINK - memory serves, there is a Ramones performance on one of their DVD sets - I'm guessing it's 'Weird Tales of the Ramones', and it's 'Baby I Love You', but I could be wrong. I'll strain my brain to think up anything by anybody pre-78 that's not 'glam' and not on a DVD you've got Pete. If I come up with anything, I'll mail it here! (still banned from Facebook!)

The DVD is 'It's Alive' - performance from 31.1.80. Apologies.

Don't Come Close from 28/9/78 is on there too. Hope this helps.

[Pete Seaton]

as is I Don't Wanna Grow Up/Cretin Family from 1995, meaning it's got all their TOTPs performances on it.
"Teenage Kicks" is included in full on the Undertones DVD, and "Legal man" is the easter egg on the Belle and Sebastian DVD.

[Paul Watkins]

The Gary Glitter Story (VHS) has some Totp apps on it aswell.

The Latest Ultravox CD/DVD has 'All Stood Still' on it

Yeah they banned me for too many friend requests Pete! Actually, they haven't told me why, and this ban might be permanent. Shame - I was getting some good contacts in a lot of fields of interest to me!
