Rare colour footage from 1981 on Musikladen(formerly Beat Club) channel on You Tube
They perform Apache and Flingel Bunt as a four piece with Alan Jones on bass.
Scroll further down the channel and their is a mid 1970S set from Duane Eddy too!!!

Nice footage. A pity it's mimed.

[Iain Purdon]

Yes, miming to the records and not that accurately either. Very odd. Why bother?

Worth seeing... but not their finest TV performance! I love the on-screen credits at the beginning, which look like they were done in camera on an old camcorder!

Looks like Brian might have a Synare 3 on a stand next to his hi-hat and snare... which makes me think that there may be more...

Probably the single versions of "Riders In The Sky" and/or "Equinoxe (Part V)".

If this was January '81, then it must be one of the first times that Hank was seen in public 'playing' his red and white Fender Strat. Maybe even the first time?
