Thanks for posting this incredibly rare 'lost' footage. Perhaps you should consider approaching the BFI National Archive or the BBC, as they may well be interested in acquiring this footage.
They may well be interested, and they will copyright control, prevent release without payment, and with this, as with many other old footage long since paid for by others, they will earn a living out of other peoples work while preventing you and I seeing this for nothing. No, I. do not buy the precious archive bullshit!
@@maxustaxus seems a tad cynical, but you're probably quite right. I suppose it's easy to forget that such organisations exist to make money out of this stuff. They're not benevolent conservators of our entertainment heritage. At least more overtly commercial companies are upfront about their motives, but none of them would get a look in. Overall, it's a legal minefield I suppose.
@@Tonyelfy Hi, yes, as you can tell I am more than a little jaded. It is from personal experience. The BFI took down (or rather their contracted copyright controllers took down) one of my films. Just a rare public information film from the late 1960s (no other copy on YT). A film funded by the government, shown widely to the public in the 1960s, for the benefit of the public. And now part of our shared culture and memories...but one which we are not free to show 60 years later. I guess I would be more sympathetic to this and other archives if I saw their staff looking for film at boot sales at 7.00am, or taking a risk with unseen film collections which turn out to be a big waste of money. I once found original demo tapes for band which included their single which got to number 2 in the 1970s in a pile of junk at a boot sale. The band wanted the tapes for free, for their archive. For nothing. And while I understand how important these tapes were too them, what about all the times I find nothing...or the tapes turn out to be a waste of money when you play them? Sorry for sounding so harsh, but as I say, I have become a bit jaded by the archive saviours: my channel is not monitised BTW).
@@maxustaxus Have you considered uploading the video footage to the Internet Archive? It's a completely nonprofit digital library website that relies solely on voluntary donations
@@GiuseppePascuale928 Hi, sadly that looks like all that has surfaced so far...but lets keep fingers crossed...I hope that a bit more will turn up at some point.
Wow.. although she performed this masterpiece many times, this performance is a gem for sure. Thank you!
Thanks for the kind comment...BTW...your eye looks like how I imagine Annie Lennox's eye would look if cropped to that extent!

I would love to see any other clips from this episode which is one of those whose masters were sadly wiped and no transmission copy has surfaced.
You can...check out THE POWER OF LOVE
@@mr.k1503 Yes! I saw that one. I wish more than the two performances survived.
