Recently I watched the 3 hour special of the Old grey whistle test celebrating 30 years.It featured a snippet of Bob Harris interviewing Keef,cira 76/77.
As a 15 year old ,during that time I remember the Whistle test special they did from Paris.It featured some of the concert and interviews with the band.I just wonder if there are any copies of this programme circulating?Anybody have any links to this ?Thanks in advance.

This is the 1977 interview which they showed before playing some of the Paris 76 show.

The Keith interview was from 74, by the way. Probably the most out of it interview ever given by Keith (or anyone else for that matter).

I remember that Whistle test special they did on the Paris 1976 show.

That was the first time I had seen any concert footage from the Stones and still remember what a thrill it was seeing a Stones concert on the TV.

I couldn't imagine back then that 40 plus years later I would own a whole library of videos and DVD's of concerts and documentary films of the band.

Nor could I have imagined the internet and sites like youtube.

The circumstances around Keith's interview are well covered by Nick Kent in his book The Dark Stuff, which I unhesitatingly recommend

«That's not fair to the people in Cleveland», «You get guest artists, trying to play piano»

Classic stuff! grinning smiley
