ReplyDeleteMuch obliged
ReplyDeleteIt was sad to hear of the death of Lena Martell only a few days after a repeat of her appearance on the Totp edition of 4/10/79. I've always liked her mega hit and whilst I don't recall it from the time, '79 is the year of my earliest distinct pop memories so any release fron that year is special. Great voice and a marvellous kind presence when she appeared on the show.
ReplyDeleteIt's good to see that BBC4 are resuming their repeats of 1976 editions in a couple of weeks, presumably picking up from where they left off several months ago. I assumed that's what would happen and hopefully that's the case.
ReplyDeleteGood to hear. Be nice if they would start showing the DLT editions again too.
DeleteIron Maiden perform to an audience of bored, motionless teenagers! Not even a hint of head banging. Possibly the first studio performance with Bruce on vocals. Not quite the original line up Mr Theakston, you're wrong there. They first appeared on TOTP in 1980 with Paul Di'anno behind the mic.
