As with the substitution of the audio on 'Rattlesnake Shake', the mash-up of clips they used was most likely one that Castle put together to pad out the running time, as much of the "performance" footage is recycled from the NRK television broadcast which they obviously had the rights to
Ah yes, but on June 17th 1970, they surprisingly reunited to "lip-synch The Green Manalishi for tomorrow's Top of the Pops (BBC-1 TV) at Television Centre, White City, west London."

I take it this performance has never been released?
