Wink Celloid Heroes....

Thanks, slipkid. I didn't know that there was a site dedicated to this magnificent course, bless them....

I went and had a look at the page in question:

Just think that the BBC had the nerve to erase ANYTHING from this Golden Age of British Music! Who the hell would make a decision like that??? What a loss!!!

A few years back we (here on The Ledge) were discussing the film from Njårdhallen, Oslo taped by NKR-TV on the 3rd of october 1969 (screened the next year). Some clips of it are on Youtube or on The Early Years video. The full concert might still be in the vaults according to - I think - ledgie dansven. Maybe other European countries have film, like Holland, Germany, Denmark, Sweden....???

There is a website for Free Festivals in the UK, where they are looking for film of The Bath Festival 28th of June 1969. There was a film crew there that day. And the description here gives a good idea of the problems of finding footage from these events. It has still photoes of FM:
