Their mimed performance of ‘My Love’, alongside studio performances by Gary Glitter, Frank Hardcastle, Stuart Gilles and Pan’s People is transmitted the following night on BBC1 (between 6:45 and 7:15pm) and is introduced by Tony Blackburn. Also performing on tonight’s show, is Hurricane Smith, previously known as the EMI recording engineer Norman “Normal” Smith, with whom Paul previously worked at Abbey Road during The Beatles’ sessions in the sixties.
