In addition to a cupboard full of vinyl, I’ve got shelves of old VHS videotapes with some fairly fantastic clips from the likes of ‘The Tube’, ‘Whistle Test’ and ‘TOTP’ as well as promos dating as far back as 1982 when the cost of a blank tape was about one month’s worth of student grant.
I’ve never got round to converting any of these into something compatible with ‘You Tube’, so I’m having to rely on others to post essential clips things that I’d like to bring to the attention of a wider audience.
I need to say the biggest thank you imaginable to adz1962 who has just posted up my favourite ever TV clip of New Order. Regular readers will know that New Order are a band I’m slightly fond of….
It’s a live performance of Age Of Consent from away back in April 1983.
Once again, thank you adz1962 whoever you are. Santa has arrived 48 hours early.
