Anyone else noticed how Jimmy Saville has been edited out of all these shows?  As one of the most regular hosts of TOTP that must be quite a task.


Yes, and the re-runs of It's A Knockout have most likely been shelved indefinitely too.


 
Tonight on BBC1, Top Of The Pedos followed at 7:30 by It's a Pedo and at 8:00 we have Rolf's Amazing World Of Pedos.

Hi Karyn, thank you so much for posting that link!  I never saw that video?  We did that in Amerstam.  I love that you found it.  I am the drummer.  
 
Wow!  I am very grateful!

In 1979, Planet Records released my group's first album "Sue Saad & The Next".  Before that, we were signed to Warner Brother's Music (publishing deal) and the are the ones that helped us get signed.  
 
We had a hit in Amsterdam so we flew over and did a concert with Crocus and also a video.  Later, Sheena Easton covered one of the songs we wrote called "Prisoner" that went gold.  Uriah Heep also covered it.  
We lost our deal when Planet lost their distribution rights with Electra.  
 
To promote our album, we toured and did one night shows with The Baby's, The Boomtown Rats, UFO and Tom Petty.  The group broke up after we could not get picked up and I started my recording studio in Los Angeles.

Sorry,  I just had to...
 
 
 
BTW, which one's you?



Both of those things are very cool!  The video is very well done and it looks like you got plenty of decent face time (NOT usual for a drummer!).
 
Your overall look reminds me a lot of Scandal.




Thanks for that Craig.

Thank you sharke.  That song was recorded at Planet Records Studio 55 in L.A. with our first album.  It was mixed by Bill Schnee, Richard Perry, and myself.
