Remarks:
=======
The picture quality is really great considering the age of the video. The audio is less good.

Video and audio seem to get slightly out of sync (not throughout the video), but in places. However, this also might only be a personal impression and is not really disturbing.

At least this is the only real live Elf video footage I know, and I thought it might be something for collectors.

Looking at the video as a historic document I left it as it was (is) without doing any corrections to it.

These are only fragements and the sound varies much.
Not very good, but listenable. Some clicks, noises and detorsions... Not for soundmanias.

This has never been shared before on the net.
Wonderful vocals by Ronnie and great piano by Mickey Lee Soule.

Original note by bluebatrat:

"Elf at Lewisham 74 supporting Purple - this is copied from my friend's original - the original recording level ranged from very low to inaudible - so here the drop-outs sound like big clicks - I have split it into 5 tracks - I don't know their names
this is all that was taped - there was only one C120 tape (For Deep Purple and Elf)
