Supersonic began in September 1975 as part of 'Saturday Scene' hosted by Sally James.
Produced by Mike Mansfield, who was shown directing affairs in the control room between the live performances.
It was launched in it's own right on September, 6th.
Supersonic was a studio full of explosions, dry ice and bubbles. Debut performers included Suzi Quatro, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Linda Lewis and David Essex, then at No1 in the charts.
The show tapped into a new style of pop broadcasting, against a tired looking Top of the Pops, but after little more than a year, ratings and distribution had dwindled. The final edition went out at 11.00am on April, 2nd 1977.
Original broadcast LWT (ITV) ; Granada Plus repeat 1999.
A very short running TV pop program, so that's why the live performances are quiet rare and unique! I found a bunch of these episodes back in a stack of DVD's i received in a trade, years ago.
The quality of this VHS to DVD transfer is very good!
I only used Nero to put the episodes in chronological order, what gives each show a chapter.
