Does anyone have any info on when "The Power of Rock" was first broadcast on TV and what UK channel it was. "The Power of Rock" is a TV edit of the "Rocking All Over The Years" / Birmingham N.E.C. 1989 home-video release. it featured an edited tracklisting: Caroline, Roll Over Lay Down, Little Lady, Mystery Medley, Hold You Back, The Power Of Rock, Dirty Water, Whatever You Want, In The Army Now, Rockin' All Over The World, Don't Waste My Time. Here's a low-res copy I currently have of it - streamable.com/1kx4l9 |

Sorry to be really vague but in my mind it was on late night ITV in the early nineties.
There used to be a late night Friday or Saturday music programme called Cue The Music…..it was possibly shown as part of that series.
It was presented by Mike Mansfield , the guy behind the Supersonic series which Andy Bown appeared on and performed the theme tune for.

Completely forgot I also started a topic on this back in January 2022, when it was originally uploaded to YouTube. Apparently, it was broadcast on Cue The Music at some point in 1993 - but no other information than that. Edit - I think I've found a date for the Cue The Music broadcast. 13th July 1992. |

All I know is that the first time it was broadcast was on BSkyB, no idea of a date but it was the edit and was broadcast before the VHS came out, I had to get a neighbour to record it as I didn't have satellite TV back then.

Cheers! The "Rocking All Over The Years" material was released 8th October 1990. The Power of Rock master exists, not that anyone is desperate for a further edited down version of the NEC 89 show  I know the "Anniversary Waltz—Butlins" release was broadcast on Bedrock (ITV) on April 18th, 1991. |

Was it free from the edits etc or was it the video version? The edits on Anniversary Waltz were annoying, as was the inexplicable decision to chop most of Whatever You Want and Dirty Water !!! |

Was it free from the edits etc or was it the video version? The edits on Anniversary Waltz were annoying, as was the inexplicable decision to chop most of Whatever You Want and Dirty Water !!! Just the video version but edited down. Caroline (incomplete), Roll Over Lay Down (incomplete / cut early), Little Lady (incomplete), Mystery Medley (incomplete / Wild Side Of Life, Rollin' Home cut), Hold You Back (incomplete), Down Down (incomplete), Dirty Water / Whatever You Want, In The Army Now (incomplete), Rockin' All Over The World, Don't Waste My Time, Roadhouse Medley (early solo cut, The Wanderer, Living On An Island), Burning Bridges, The Anniversary Waltz. Really pisses me off how they edited this show to begin with. Made a massive deal out of it being their return to Butlins celebrating 25 (Rockin') years, but we'll edit fuck out of it and just use footage from promos and NEC '82. Just before Burning Bridges you can see Rossi about to talk at the mic. This is where he invited Chris Tarrant on-stage to celebrate his birthday. |
