Rare video from 70s

Post by krm »

I just started to convert VHS to "digital media" and this is the very first one! I might or might not be able to adjust the quality. Until then, this is something to enjoy!

Wow! Pre-Attractions EC. Looks like that might be Terry Williams on drums although I wouldn't bet on it. Don't recognize the bass player at all.

Thanks for sharing this, krm!

Mystery Days!

That's a great clip. Richard Carpenter made me laugh. Karen Carpenter more plausible!!

The bass player actually sounds quite Brucelike.

During the COstello/Nieve 1999 tour the swedish tv channel ZTV made an interview with EC and spiced the talking up with some nice music footage. The detectives part is to be transferred as well. It is not complete however.

The backing band were playing in the swedish band Scaffel Pike who had som regional success in sweden during the 70ies with a mixture of swedish and english folkmusic.

.....to be continued.....

As befits their name, more English names than Svenskas!
