Bonzo Dog Band - Live - 1967 to 1969

Here are some Bonzo TV appearances from 1967 through 1969. Only a few of them are lip-synched. The quality of the recordings is very good. The TV shows of interest are; Do Not Adjust Your Set, The Big Show, Colour Me Pop, Footlight Parade, and some others. These live tunes often closely resemble what is on vinyl. The lads were professionals.
