Re: rage are airing their very first top 20 chart from April 1987 this weekend!

I asked earlier on the Facebook page about 'Boom Boom'. Apparently they can't air the 'video' (the Discoring performance that was aired here) due to copyright reasons, so it will be the Countdown dancers clip again... though they said this time that they've edited out the bit of 'Male Stripper' that comes before it.

It will be interesting to see if they air the 'Male Stripper' video rather than Countdown dancers; I hope so.

Likewise I hope the other rarer videos are not Countdown rips.

As for 'keeping copies' of their guest programming, if you meant the playlist (and not necessarily all of the old videos per se), I remember someone (Jason?) asked on the rage guestbook (or maybe it was the web forum) whether they still had all those pre-1998 playlists that aren't on the website, and the moderator at the time said that yes they do, but they're all on paper only. The moderator also said something about how they don't have time to type them all up and add them to the website, but that the person asking the question was welcome to come to their studios and offer to do it for them . I would be actually happy to oblige to do some of it, but if they meant at the Sydney studios, which they probably did, that wouldn't be easy.


Hi Nathan, which videos do you consider the rarer ones?

I meant the ones rage would never normally air/haven't aired in aeons (other than perhaps on a Countdown episode), like Stacey Q's 'We Connect', Gregory Abbott's 'Shake You Down', Boris Gardiner's 'I Want To Wake Up With You'.

Oh I see mate, would you like any of these videos as well or do you have them all? I also have Paul Lekakis's video of Boom Boom nice and clean and PAL if you would like this one also?

I would love a copy of that! I've got 2 different copies, but they both have watermarks and other stuff plastered all over them (one from Video Hits, one from channel V or whatever it is [I don't have pay TV]).

Hi Nathan, can you please post the Aria Top 50 of the week that rage showed this Top 20. I did see you posted this on facebook a couple of weeks ago, but would love easy access here. Cheers.
