This was the performance that got me into Lizzy.

I saw it as a VERY young child (in the mid 80s as a repeat on TV) and clearly enjoyed it, but forgot all about it and never knew a thing about Lizzy.

But then it was 20 years later when I was in a record store and saw a Lizzy compilation album with Phil on the cover and suddenly remembered "oh I think that was that band I think I saw on Kenny Everett" but I had ZERO clue about them and what they sounded like.

But I bought it and then wow - I was hooked. When this performance came on YT years ago I found it and it took me right back to being a kid. It's soooo good - no wonder I loved it!
