Just a bit of information about Sounds. It was the very first Rock Video show in the world. Before SOUNDS first show in 1974; no other music program dedicated three hours of air time to only rock video clips. Most music programs focused on live footage or in-studio performances. Donnie Sutherland, was pretty much the world's first VJ.

'SOUNDS' also launched the career of many aspring film-makers including Russell Mulcahy - who became a well-known film director ('Rambo', just to name one).

It's cool... I'll be seeing Donnie tonight on his boat cruise across the Sydney habour. Fingers crossed I can get more episodes from him.

Just to note: Russell Mulcahy ('SOUNDS' original film-maker/director) also directed The Buggles 'Video Killed The Radio Star' video. He also directed numberous videos for the following artists: Duran Duran, Rod Stewart, Bonnie Tyler, Elton John, Spandau Ballet, Kim Carnes, Icehouse, The Tubes, Ultravox, Billy Joel... his wikipedia page lists more...
