    There's quite a good dvd box set out of all the great OGWT performances. I still can't be doing with Bob Harris, not after he call the New York Dolls "mock rock", the fcking hippy. :(

    To be honest, so far theres about 1 decent track followed by about 4 I don't like.

    I thought it would be better than this - the 1979 TOTP was better!

    Bob......'that was Roxy Music'...'now we have some real music from Supertramp'

    I've made that up but it does illustrate the point.

    Like Mr C I'm an old punk, so whispering Bob don't mean much.

    The Clash were 11000000000000 times better than ELO…. fact…

    ...that said there is some good footage

    I always enjoy it. Seems more like social history than music. Watched this over Christmas as I missed it when it was out.
