The footage they showed a couple of times of Calvert singing Urban Guerilla
in the hat on stage I have seen a couple of times before, surely that isn't
a different gig than the Dunstable '72 where the TOTP Silver Machine wasa
taken from as Urban Guerilla was 73 surely?
Spotted a small clip from the Isle of Wight Festival but nothing from the
Hawklords that Top Ten showed?
Eddie.
