Friends of mine and I, who simply looove music and especially music history, have been finding that YouTube is a veritable treasure trove of archive footage. On it you can find old and rare clips featuring the greatest musicians ever to have graced the planet. So let's share the best findings with each other here on CFC!
----------------
Some guidance and rules to help the thread work well, if you don't mind.
~ You can use the search function in the top right to find the clips.
~ Please only post footage that features the artist in person and / or their original music video. (There are loads of self shot clips of random idiots bugging out to some music in their bedroom. There are also many amateurish clips from people who have made their own music videos. Those are boring and crappy and don't show/teach us anything about the artists in question.)
To help users of the thread and to avoid random, mysterious links being posted, please mention the:
~ Genre
~ Artist
And if possible:
~ Length of the clip
~ Some background info for our further education and appreciation.

Let's do this!
