Regarding the Neil Young clip -- there was no such thing as BBC4 in 1971. BBC4 has existed since around 2002 and often has repeats of archival programming. I'm pretty sure the Neil Young clip originated on BBC2.

I’d be curious to know how many genesis fans there are in relation to the total fan base. Let me clarify please. This was NOT a criticism of Genesis or their fan base. I too am a fan. It was simply an observation that - out of the population that voted - 1 in 8 total votes was for Genesis.

Easy Money is the easy choice for me! This is probably the best footage we’ll ever get of KC before their first breakup. Not to mention, this is one of their only live performances of Easy Money that DIDN’T include the quite raunchy & rapey second verse lyrics… “Well, I argued with the judge But the bastard wouldn't budge 'Cause they caught me licking fudge And they never told me once you were a minor” Yet another example of why 70’s prog music will never be replicated in this day & age, sorry not sorry😂

Ruth James

Yay, at last my selection has reached this stage🙂

Karl Stubsjoen

Jeezz. Too many of my favourites on this list. I’ve preferred to vote for Sir Paul, but I realise The Musical Box has a much bigger change to win this. So Genesis it is 👍🏻😉

Matthew Hackbert

Vote for Knife Edge since Doug has not heard it! It also outperformed Take a Pebble in the discord voting. Take a Pebble was already in a BTS episode...

Prince didn’t even make the cut 😭😭😭

Margaret Barnes

Please consider throwing some more love toward Elvis Costello - that “F U” moment on LIVE TV (with Lorne Michaels just off camera, flipping him off the whole time!) was such an iconic moment! It took guts, that early in his career. It got him banned from SNL for the next 12 years, too.😁 So Rock & Roll!! 🤘🤘

A bit of background to the Jimi Hendrix performance : - this was a live broadcast - Cream had announced they were splitting up earlier the same day - Hey Joe was the closing number for the show - the next BBC program was their flagship 6pm News that always had to start on time - the Cream tribute meant the show ran over leading to: outrage (at the BBC) that the News should be delayed by a bunch of hippies & Jimi was banned from the BBC At the time live programs on the BBC were taped to allow a single repeat showing and then the tape reused; this recording survived at the end of such a tape long enough for a BBC librarian to recognise the contents and archive it separately.

I HOPE Knife Edge edges out Take a Pebble, not because I like one song over another but because the video to Take a Pebble is ruined by annoying 70's video effects and you can't see Keith playing piano. Knife Edge video is clean with no video effects.

Bob Lessard

What! No bands that performed on Don Kirshner's "Rock Concert"!?! Possibly the best live rock concert show of that time. Kirshner was the first to put Kansas on the map with that show.

Salvador Montoro Goethe

A chance to see very early Genesis live...no doubt! Comfortably Numb is also one of my favorites

Guitar Channel

Good to see some Beat Club videos on the list, a show with excellent sound (not lip sync). Old Grey Whistle Test would be another show to explore for future videos.
