Manchester - Nov 15

Elizabethan Ballroom, Belle Vue

Often circulated as Elizabthan Suite, it is in fact a full gig which was filmed by and for Granada TV and included Souisie and the Banshees as support.

Snippets were screened twice on the So It Goes TV show (Dec 77 and Nov 78) (and repeated again in 1990) and circulate on video and audio.

Other than the So It Goes source, no other source exists.

It is thought Granada don't know where it is either and that the Dec 78 footage may have come from Tony Wilsons own collection?


So It Goes was a British TV music show presented by Tony Wilson on Granada Television between 1976 and 1977. It is most famous for showcasing the then burgeoning punk rock movement. The show's first series gave the Sex Pistols their first ever TV appearance performing Anarchy in the UK.
