Slade's 'Last Hurrah' from the 1970s. Looks like another salvaged performance from a German TV channel, as evidenced by the TV monitors in the background and the typically catatonic audience. After that it looked as if the band was destined to disappear for all time, but they enjoyed a bit of an unexpected revival in the early 1980s with 'My Oh My', which reached number 2 in the UK charts in 1982.

Lol, I've opted for a 'static' version of this song, because all the other stuff is just too idiotic for one reason or another, at least to my fastidious taste....

Didn't Quiet Riot's cover of Cum On Feel the Noize trigger that, or did it not come until after that revival was under way?
