This is ONJ 's appearances on Granada/Yorkshire TV/London Weekend TV . Whether the master tapes have survived of these programmes is another matter?

be warned ! having bespoke tapes made from these type of organisations, will not be like buying from your local Kwiki Mart they may end up costing you hundreds of dollars ?..then again you may be lucky ?

hope that is of help?


your next best place to look is probably the BBC TOTP2
website, this has a database of all artists performances
on 'top of the pops'

failing that I recall she may have done performances for ' the cliff richard show ' also BBC, I have no info on that.

acutaly all of her shows from the its cliff series except for the 1974 guest shot are all gone ,but i have been lucky enough to get audio and her geteway show with cliff still exsists as does the case tvm.
most of her totp shows are gone forever all those early 70s shows with classics like if not for you and banks of the ohio and what is life and honestlylove you and follow me are gone forever.
same with her moods of love tv series from 1974
a lot of the 70s is gone for ever as has the 60s but there is still alot that survive.

good luck Peter with obtaining them. Post back here if you do get them, as it makes interesting reading
