Searchers on video?

Picture: Yes, early seventies. From a period I remember reading one reporter comparing Adamson's hairstyle to that of Diana Ross!

Anyone working on the great Searchers VHS compilation?

Yes I have the video Story Of Merseybeat and a good portion of it is given to The Searchers.

One interesting video I have and indeed have wrote about in a article called The Final Frontier which Tim Viney may publish in a edition of his magazine relates to a performance by The Searchers in 82, loads of Sire stuff performed,this was done just as Video was becoming available to the masses.

Roy,
Was LP#9 among the songs, & did it feature close-up shots of the fretboards during the solo sections?

I'm joining in quite late in this discussion but I also saw the Searchers on Solid Gold. They lip synced to the original version of Love Potion #9.

This was of course during the Spencer James era. I've got the tape somewhere.

Hi Roy,
That's cool, it can wait 'till you get back from vacation (holiday).
