Smooth as Silk performance - live on German TV - 26th August 1967. This was the second day of colour tramsmissions in Germany. "Gala-Abend der Schallplatte" was a live show from the 25th Funkausstellung IFA in Berlin intended to showcase international artistes and the new technology of colour TV. Yes folks - over 40 years ago!!
The Crystals - Da Doo Ron Ron
The Ronettes - Be My Baby
Two great performances with reminiscences from Larry Levine and Stan Ross, Jeff Barry who co-wrote both songs, and also from Nino Tempo.
Irritatingly catchy dance track from 1986.
I recorded this off the German TV show Ronny's Pop Show way back in 1986 - an early music video show that was fronted by a chimpanzee.
And, yep VHS tapes do survive after 22 years.
BTW I'm touched by the other YouTuber that took the trouble of downloading this clip and re-uploading it to his precious video collection.
The perfect antidote for jaded Western ears in search of pure melody and emotion.
Some edited highlights from the medley "5 Decades of Heroines" sung live by Lata Mangeshkar from her "Lata An Era In An Evening" Concert in Mumbai on 9th March 1997.

A nice performance from the early 1980's. You might recognise the tune - Elizabethan Serenade. Don't know which TV programme this was - just found it on a tape I made way back then of music video clips.

Another favourite performance by Lata Mangeshkar from her "Lata An Era In An Evening" Concert in Mumbai on 9th March 1997.
I can watch these performances endlessly - they are simply wonderful!
