Does anyone know of a site where I can view/download old Top of the Pops performances?

Or, if not, is there a DVD of some sort that compiles all of the great/historic performances?

I think there is a TOTP2 DVD. You can download TOTP clips on the BBC's TOTP2 website. Go dere.

I take it back. Those clips look cool...

Although I'm sure Sparks' "Tryouts for the human race" wasn't 1970.

On the Jarvis Cocker programme about Pop TV he interviewed a BBC tape op who had rescued some episodes of TOTP from the 60's. Seemingly there are only 7 complete shows in the archive as like a lot of pop culture it was considered too ephemeral and lowbrow to merit saving on expensive (at the time) videotape.
