I've got a feeling that the clip was uploaded by someone who was in the band. It's only been uploaded today and there's a link to sell a book at www.diaryofamusician.com on the page. I think that's one worth following up if anyone wants to do the honours? They might have some more shows or it could be just clips. It looks like it's been dubbed from another recording from the picture disturbance at the start of the clip and the overall quality, but you never know where things might lead. |

You mean to say the BBC were still wiping/losing TOTP performances as late as August 1976, what incompetence.
There's tons of Guys & Dolls footage on the continent.

Posted by David smothers on Today at 3:55am What a find. This is another Guys n Dolls clip from TOTP, but I've never seen it, either... and I'm note sure which edition it's from: www.youtube.com/watch?v=Qp3qHlhO2t0 David i think this particular clip comes from the 1/5/75 show which as far as i know is missing. |

I Remember this clip,This was posted years ago by another poster here on youtube.Same letter font seen on this clip as well.Is new news though that this clip yields from 75',very interesting indeed.I believe this was discussed here in some detail then,never heard the end there sadly.(look at the clip posting date of October 29th,2008!)
Is great to see this clip again,possibly further info may be learned from the re-posting.
Cheers,Lance.

Yeah, they were still wiping TOTP up to September 1977 sadly  As for Guy & Dolls their only significant & memorable hit was "There's a Whole Lot of Loving" from 1975 (in my opinion).  |

I've not heard Guys 'n' Dolls - Here I Go Again for ages. I'd virtually forgotten it, great song! The female lead vocal on that track is by Thereze Bazar,who along with David Van Day,were in Guys N Dolls until they were sacked in July 1977 Thereze and David became Dollar and went on to have quite a few top 40 hit singles-more than Guys N Dolls did.... |

So.......is this another Missing TOTP clip that has been located? This is the important thing. I think I shall ask my resident TOTP expert....

They keep turning up on youtube, but are any of them actually making their way back to the Beeb?
It's not my field, but is anyone collecting them all together to return? I assume since there has been no big announcement that the original owners of all these little finds that keep turning up, don't want to share the originals?

Even a low-res YouTube copy being sent to the Beeb WOULD BE A START. However, I'm guessing the reticence of owners of clips is down to the fact that the BBC have lost returned clips over the years (there's an earlier posting that mentions this happened with part of the PVL archive), and I strongly suggest that:-
1) Kaleidoscope contact the poster, and offer to copy it
2) As many private individuals as possible copy it - so at least some sort of copy exists.
and 3) the BFI are informed, similarly to point 1)
Just my opinion, you understand.
The BBC have good intentions now, they do, but they have (m)ucked up an awful lot, and for history's sake ALL missing clips should be copied and preserved by multiple parties.
