Stumbled across this 8 mm silent movie footage . Probably from USA 1975? I can't remember to have seen it mentioned here before.
Any ideas? Where? When? Which songs?
9 minutes+. Starting at 28:10.

It'll be the American leg of the country life tour early 75, I have an interview in the nme from about this time which mentioned changing from his earlier costume to the dinner suit but unfortunately it's buried in the loft, which would give a clue as to the venue. I'm guessing due to Mr. Ferrys mannerisms that the song will be mother of pearl

I'd go for Mother of Pearl - Manzanera in full flow in the early section , and, yes ,Ferry's mannerisms ... " the boomerang misses, spin round and round " .
He was an articulate visual performer.

The track at the start has to be Prairie Rose as Manzo is playing a Rickenbacker 12 string guitar and I'm sure that he only ever used it on this song.
