Old German music program '''Beat Club''' was a superb program back when it was on (before my time though). There's now a website My Beat Club which has tons of live footage from the show, interestingly much of it shot abroad in the UK like The Ohio Players - Fire . I highly recommend MC5 - Kick Out The Jams , one of the many Ramones tracks, Eric Burdon & War - Spill The Wine , the Equals - Baby...
