[Tech1] Bob Wright and the Rolling Stones.

[David Brunt]

That sounds like one of two choices:

The Christmas Day Top of the Pops where they did “Honky Tonk Women”.

The “Pop Goes the Sixties” special. New Year’s Eve 1969.
The Stones performed “Gimme Shelter”.

They were most likely both done in the same session a few days earlier.

Yes, I did a Rolling Stones shoot for TOTP the afternoon before the live TX in one of the TVC studios. I've just trawled Youtube to find it, as I came across it at least six or seven years ago, and thought - I did that! - but I can't find it at all. I have no recollection of which crew I was on, what song they were singing, or who lit it, were they singing live or miming, but it was in colour, so 2001s. I'm fairly sure it wasn't Brown Sugar, but other than that I can't be sure. Very annoying, although I do remember they were on a raised rostra and I was shooting from camera left fairly low down and at one point had an MCU of Jagger with a defocussed coloured 2k in the background possibly even with a star filter (in fact, almost probably with a star filter!).

  Is there anyone out there that can help me? I have vague memories of being with a camera crew in one of the bigger TVC studios recording a number by the Rolling Stones which was being lit by Bob Wright. My son is asking me questions about it which I cannot answer. I think it must have been pre-1969 because I believe Brian Jones was present and was enthusiastically agreeing with Mick Jagger that the Lighting was the best they’d come across, they were being lit independently from both sides and Bob and his team were cutting between the two conditions in time to the music.
