This is from ITVs "Revolver" with Peter Cook as the reluctant MC/Club Owner who introduced bands in the style of "Ive never heard of 'em but you might like it..." It was a class show and all bands performed totally live

Took me years to realise how much Weller was influenced by Village Green Preservation Society: the escalating riff during Steam Powered Train is in A Bomb In Wardour Street, and Johnny Thunders surely influenced part of In The Crowd. Totally inspired influence.
