This excellent video was used to promote Ashes To Ashes by David Bowie...............The ground breaking innovation here was yet gain a new image for Bowie and the mirror images to change scene.........IN addition the flash back /explanation of an earlier song Space Oddity...........

Nice to be able to go back to trust and friendship!!!!!!!!!
It's a mixed up sensation this being alive
Oh! it wears a man down into the ground
It's the strangest elation
I can't describe it
Oh it leaves a man weary
It makes a man frown..............................Chris Simpson ( "Mixed Up Sensations" 1975 Martin's Cafe )

The first appearance of The Beatles on TV................
Done for Granda TV ( Which was part of the independent TV network of the UK at the time ) Possibly only shown in the North East of England.
There is some debate about the sound track ............some people tell that the soundtrack is one substituted from the BBC radio broadcast The Beatles did but, there is a full soundtrack to the TV version and this is it...............you can tell because it has damage about 46 seconds in.:hand:
There was a second rack recorded at this session but as far as I know only the video survives . ( However I had come across several possible contenders for part but as yet no proof of the real one is available.
mile:
Look out for Our Ringo at the back there in nearly his first appearance with The Beatles
Listen at the end for the shouts of " We want Pete " as he has just been sacked
