I remember watching a great John Sebastian one-man concert on BBC TV in the early 70s. I'm pretty sure that it was a BBC production. As the program was shown around the same time as BBC concerts by Neil Young and Joni Mitchell ( which are still in existance ), I wonder if John's concert is laying in the vaults somewhere i.e. not erased - or whatever. And, what else may the BBC have hidden away in those dusty - and disgracefully mismanaged - vaults.

Nudge BBC4 they might transmit it. A lot depends on the original contract, repeat fees, and whether the artist has a new album out - but the Joni Mitchel concert was on about a month or so back. In Black and White!

Have you checked your tv aerial recently MR? The gig became known as the 'Pink Dress' concert because for the obvious reason Joni wore a pink dress which was very much in evidence in the colour transmission.
