High resolution colour jpg of countdown backdrop and audience (with or without artist)

Hi there,

I am desperately trying to find a colour high resolution picture of the countdown studios with or without an artist performing. It must feature the countdown logo lights. My plan is to enlarge it to a wall size poster for the 80s room I am creating. Can anyone out there please assist? I found a good one on the countdown memories site on page 84 of the 1979 annual but it is too small. The annuals and magazines are so rare that I need an original high resolution scan.

Cheers

Shannon

Hi Shannon
I have about 360 photos taken in the studio of performances and artists being interviewed, some may suit your project although many don't have the Countdown in the background. Here are some of the better ones featuring:

Thanks Guru Bob your photos look incredible. Sadly, I have run into some copyright issues ith the printer so will have to postpone my project for a little while. Maybe I could do a countdown collage. Will be in tuch and thankyou for your reply.

Cheers Shannon

I was given a disc once about 10 years ago with 360 images on it. I believe the images are all from the ABC archives so I wouldn't be surprised if they had featured on one of their sites.

Not all the photos are that good and there are numerous ones of the same artists taken within a few seconds of each other such as Angry Anderson and Joe Cocker hosting has about 15 different photos that are all very similar but overall it is an interesting collection.
