Re: Lost Countdown

The footage from all three of those performances were from a home recording (on a National Cartridge recorder) made by Sally Boyden's family back in 1975. They made recordings of much of Sally's career, mainly on Young Talent Time, but in this case Countdown. Sadly, not the entire show was recorded, as the family just wanted certain performances, mainly of Sally herself. The other songs/interviews are a bonus. It was digitally recorded and is now safely kept in the NFSA and made available to the ABC for rage.

Re: Lost Countdown

What was a national cartridge recorder? An early video recorder?

Yes, it would appear so: (back in those days, Panasonic products were branded as National in Australia)
