I wonder if Greenaway sang lead on TOTP's because Burrows was in 3 of the bands on that night...?
By the way, the BBC have that edition of TOTP's in the archive. Quite why iit doesn't seem to have seen the light of day is allegedly because one of the other acts on that show might be preventing it.
A full 'time-coded' recording of that TOTP's appearance is 'out there'.

What's going on on the right side of the screen at 35"? Funny how you never noticed these "blemishes" when originally watching TOTP!

The video clip in question is a song called "Beachcomber". Originaly it was titled "New Begingings". Found on album and single.

Original lead singer in the B-W clip at the beginning is Roger Greenaway who also wrote the song. He wrote hits for The Fortunes and many other artists. On the left is Tony Burrows who as a session singer sang lead on a lot of hits. White Plains evolved from The Flower Pot Men after Greenaway had taken over production and songwriting duties for that band from John Carter and Ken Lewis.

One of the last Flowerpot Men songs was a Roger Greenaway and Roger Cook production "In a Moment of Madness" The same song (also same cut) turned up on the White Plains album. The origin of this song came to be when the Rogers made acquaintance with Sophie Loren on a wet rainy day at London Airport.
