Stumbled upon these last night, but they have been up 6 months. Amazing how these are showing up 40 years after the event! Enjoy.

:) Great to see Mike had already his own gestual !... on his face and with his hands when he was playing his instrument !

Heyy ! Kevin speaks a perfect French ! ohh God the lyrics in French were really in the Seventies mood ! Listening to Mike when he sings is a pure happiness !

yeah what great quality footage.   I like some of KA's later albums but find the music from the era shown here to be mostly awful, but I guess they were having alot of fun up there.  What an amazing experience for the young MO.

GREAT MATERIAL! Thank you so much!!!

You can see David Bedford without beard, but with his Vox organ which Mike later used for his demo and Tubular Bells / Hergest Ridge recordings. :)

What surprises me is that Mike was already leaning towards that sustained sound on guitar, with very limited means of achieving it, back in those days. You can also hear his style coming thru. Awful music but a great recording. Thanks for putting that up. :)

The guy on the flute, not being dressed in anything stereotypical of the era it was recorded in, completely looks like he could have been filmed last week.

That's Lol Coxhill.
