Saw these guys open up fer Purp in Waterbury, CT; the guitarist did flips constantly. When Blackmore hit the stage he played like he had something to prove; one of the most exciting shows I ever saw.
Point?comment cut me off.is interesting as this looks like a video recording taken backstage,levels are a tad off as can barely make out Dio,drummer,and keyboard for that matter. Is still great to see though. From a rock historian and researcher I salute you!
Thank you so very much for sharing this true rock gem!have been looking for Elf footage for years, would of thought some fan 8mm film may of been shot at some p
Wonderful band. Would they have made it if Rainbow hadn't happened? We'll never know.

Listen to "Sit Down Honey," in the middle you hear Gary Driscoll play, right after Mickey Lee Soule.

Yes it is. It is because it was videotaped by the side of the stage, near the guitar amps. (Not to mention, it is almost 40 years old!)

this can't be the audio for the footage. Drummers drumming and no drum sound?
