This was after Pete Davenport left the band, and in my opinion this was the best thing we ever did on TV, the band was really tight after 3 months on the road, and the filming and sound of the French TV studio was great. They got us to set up with Ricky (drums) facing the rest of the band, so lots of creative camera shots. Filmed on Feb 11th 1983 in Paris. The show was called L'Echo Des Bananes. 3 songs played, True Love, Tossin'n'Turnin, and Perdido/Caravan medley.
It was filmed for a French TV show called "L'echo des Bananes", there was 2 other songs that day "True Love" and "tossin' and turnin'" if my memory is right.
This track and 21 more from the Epic Records era now available on a new compilation CD called Epic Rock'n'Roll . At "rhythmrock-it records"
