All About Eve - Martha's Harbour - Infamous TOTP Appearance! HQ

For the first time in full, the infamous appearance on Top Of The Pops where Julianne Regan and Tim Bricheno can't hear the backing track for the first half of the song, so are just sitting there with the track playing to TV viewers. Shame that this is one of the main reasons they are remembered but it probably contributed to their success at the time - this single rose up the charts for the next two weeks!

The following week, TOTP invited them back to play the song live, to apologise for this. They appeared, played live, and were spine-tinglingly awesome. The following week the song sailed up the charts... :)

I like the way the audience start clapping at 1:20 when the sound starts being played in the studio!

Another good reason why good music,such as this,should _always_ be allowed to be live...

a little peek behind the veil of illusion so predominantly shoved down our throats day in, day out...

Why bother time on this when you can actually watch and listen to this extraordinarily beautiful song being performed by All About Eve elsewhere on you tube?

Type Wayne Hussey Julianne Regan Curios into the YouTube search and you can find a sampler of the forthcoming album. Thanks.
