does anyone remember...
« on: June 17, 2008, 06:46:27 pm »
a few years back someone posted a small old black and white ABC sports vintage MX video put to the music Black Sabbath (I think). Would anyone know where this little vid lurks online or would anyone have it saved somewhere. I've searched all over cyberspace and I just can't find it. I want to watch it again as it was one of my favs, whoever the rider was held nothing back  :o  8)

I'd like to find the video that was used as a filler on ABC back in the mid 70s. It featured bikes racing around some MX track, all in colour, and set to a nice little sound track. The song I can't remember, I thought it was something like Your Love Keeps Lifting Me Higher and Higher but now I'm not so sure. Anyone remember that one?

As for the one you mention Doc, I have no idea. I do have a pile of videos I taped off ABC back then and some have short pieces at the end, for example I saw one recently which was a short instructional clip about cornering on a dirtbike and I think the rider was one of the Floods. I may even have the one you are talking about somewhere. Not likely to find it anytime soon though.

hmmm..I remember the soundtrack so well..definately Black Sabbath and the song Paranoid. The guy is really giving it to the bike which appears about '70/'72ish. I'll keep looking  ;) love to find the old Pepsi Mr MX advertisment from '78 but that's also an elusive little critter  :P

Don't throw rocks at me if I'm wrong :'(If i remember right, this was in the forum.
The conversation changed to old bands and music from the days when we where growing up,cause someone chucked a funny about lifting me higher.(being over weight)
It was turned onto the topic of Angels,Skyhooks,tvshows=Goodies etc maybe try there,or even in the old forum,does this ring a bell :o good luck
