Best of luck Ray, i hope you manage to get some sort of reply. The problem with youtube is that 'most' posters tend not to reply at all. Some i assume are afraid of some sort of legal action against them the others just don't have the information we seek. Regarding this clip of 'If Only For The Good Times', it appears that the record button is pressed at the start of the introduction. Perhaps this is an 'orphan' clip recorded by a member of the group/management. If they turn out to be from a complete editions that would be a great find and possibly lead to more Here's what might be: .....12th August 1976: Tony Blackburn THE EQUALS – Funky Like A Train DOCTOR HOOK – A Little Bit More (promo) STARLAND VOCAL BAND – Afternoon Delight (Ruby Flipper) STATUS QUO – Mystery Song (promo) GUYS ‘N’ DOLLS – If Only For The Good TimesTHE CHI-LITES – You Don’t Have To Go (promo) JIMMY JAMES & THE VAGABONDS – Now Is The Time TAVARES – Heaven Must Be Missing An Angel (promo) THE BEE GEES – You Should Be Dancing (Ruby Flipper) JAMES & BOBBY PURIFY – Morning Glory (promo) CLIFF RICHARD – I Can’t Ask For Anything More Than You ELTON JOHN & KIKI DEE – Don’t Go Breaking My Heart (promo) and 'Here I Go Again' .....1st May 1975 Dave Lee Travis GLITTER BAND – The Tears I Cried SILVER CONVENTION – Save Me GLADYS KNIGHT & THE PIPS – The Way We Were – Try To Remember (promo) THE WOMBLES – Wombling White Tie And Tails WINDSOR DAVIES & DON ESTELLE – Whispering Grass TAMMY JONES – Let Me Try Again GUYS ‘N’ DOLLS – Here I Go AgainTEACH-IN – Ding-A-Dong MINNIE RIPERTON – Loving You (promo) FRANKIE VALLI & THE FOUR SEASONS – The Night (Pan’s People) TAMMY WYNETTE – Stand By Your Man (promo) MUD – Oh Boy........

Ray I can confirm that this is a missing clip from the 12/08/1976 edition which has been wiped.

Thanks Laurence I've just seen the 'Music Music Music' clip and that clears that one up for me.

The white suits performance is from "Music Music Music", as mentioned above. On TOTP they wore black. I'm a little confused with this thread The clip of Lily the pink found last year was i thought from the christmas 69 totp. The above link to the youtube still is from that performance (white suits). I'm sure that this is totp because the background and floor are identical to the Clodaugh Rogers performance of Goodnight Midnight. Or did 'Music Music Music' have the same set?

Very difficult to pinpoint from that still.
Looks American, possibly hullabaloo? or Shindig?
Is there a youtube link?

Regarding the existance of footage of 'Pretty Flamingo'. The Manfreds appeared on at least 7 occasions promoting the track.
21st April - Top of the Pops 22nd April - Ready Steady Go 28th April - Top of the Pops 7th May - Thank Your Lucky Stars 12th May - Top of the Pops 19th May - Top of the Pops 17th June - Ready Steady Go 26th December - Top of the Pops (possible repeat?)
Since there are a few TYLS editions that survive is this one still around?

Very interesting developments indeed If this persons claims are real then it would be fairly easy to prove if he could supply more clips (to youtube maybe) to back up this story, or a list of what he has? As to another company using the BBC studios back in 66, wasn't the Beatles clip in Doctor Who, a specially filmed performance on film used as the insert in that episode? Was that done by the BBC or another company? I would tend to agree that this is an insert of sorts, but as to it being filmed by BoMar Scope?

I've noticed that the guy who posted it is from the USA (where the edition in question was supposed to have been sold to) and he is a retired film editor. So it's probable that he has the print?.
The only thing i noticed is the 'fade to black' and damage to the end of the clip, suggesting that it may be an orphan clip or the end of a reel?

Not just 'obscure' ones How about some very big hits with no 'original' footage
Love Affair - Everlasting Love Blue Mink - Randy Frank Sinatra - Strangers in the Night Manfred Mann - Pretty Flamingo
to name but a few
as for the artists, how about The Idle Race Hollywood Argyles The Cascades

At least they are finishing the 1976 run Perhaps they might show some of the ones they missed the first time round???
