Anytime. It's one of the performances I had no idea about until I started looking more into things for this project.

Found this DVD in Camden Town a couple of years ago... Nice. Is the quality as good as it says? I'm struggling to find things in as good quality as I'd like. I'm seeing if I can guess where in Camden you got that from; tiny little shop up some stairs at the lock, run by a bloke and his dog? I don't exactly remember where I found it but it was a tiny shop indeed (like most of those shops). The quality of the images is acceptable. We all know or have seen the appearances on TOTP but it's good to have them on this double Dvd. I was glad I found it.

It looks like a collection put together by someone who knew what they were doing. I'd be interested to see the quality of some of the recordings from '90-'00 that don't seem to be online in particularly good condition. I'm sure there's definitely better copies out there. Also She Don't Fool Me, since it's a DLT episode and skipped in repeats. Right now the only thing I have to hand in top quality is the TOTP2 special, I think. On a DVD somewhere.

Caroline 11.10.73 is same as 23.09.73 only with slightly different angles checked crowd on both clips and they are the same It appears to me to be the same crowd, but a different Quo performance. Watch Parfitt at the start, he is definatley leaning on the barrier in one of them, but not the other. I guess there must have been two takes on the same day!

I wonder how many takes they did overall.

It will be good to know how many appearances they actually did make in the TOTP studio.

It will be good to know how many appearances they actually did make in the TOTP studio. From what I've compiled so far, if you count alternate takes and different songs recorded on the same day as one appearance/session, it's probably somewhere around 40. POMM - 1 maybe 2 IITS - 1, maybe 2 but unlikely 3 AYGTOML - 1 DTD - 1 IMC - 1, maybe 2 PP - 1 Caroline - 1 session, at most 2 DD - 1 WYP - 1 session (most likely) SBYBIL - 1 RNR - 1 DJ - 1 SDFM - 1 ORB - 1 AMOB - 1 MT - 2 GDTT - 1 Wanderer - 1 RH - 1 RS - 1 ITAN - 1 Dreamin' - 1 BB - 2 RAOTW - 1 AW1 - 2 LWT - 1 IDMI - 1 JSD - 1 RAOTW - 1 TPAOY - 1 +2 TOTP2 sessions Unless I'm missing anything, that's a minimum of 35 actual appearances. Hardly the 100+ claimed..

I always wondered why they never appeared on TOTP when 'Break The Rules' was in the charts during May'74 as they were touring Britain at that time, unless they were in concert on the night that TOTP was recorded.

I'm more surprised Accident Prone didn't end up featured even as a promo. It did as well as She Don't Fool Me, which they got into the studio for, and they made a promo video for it. It followed up Again and Again, which of course did well after following RAOTW.
It's strange it didn't get a mention at all, unless everyone knew it was set to flop.
Also You'll Come Round arguably deserved to be featured.

Hardly the 100+ claimed.. Also the totp 25th anniversary special 1988/89? And a couple of Christmas day specials too??

Hardly the 100+ claimed.. 2 performances for Caroline. 1 - the numerous takes shared in this thread, 2 - the missing broadcast featuring Rick and Francis sharing the same mic. I've got another picture from that, but no broadcast date. Possibly the first half of October '73 perhaps? Will have to do more digging Edit, nevermind. Noticed you mentioned a wiped broadcast from 18th Oct performance of Caroline

Besides 89, which was Burning Bridges and 90, which is Anniversary Waltz, I think the Xmas/New Year are repeats? 75 and 88 are the two I've got listed.
