Apologies for not having masterered the art of posting links to You Tube, but there are a couple of clips I have not seen mentioned before which may be of interest. The first two date from the 60's and are redolent of the look/atmosphere of those days. They feature a now dead Finnish singer, Laila Kinnunen, wearing a shiny black pvc trenchcoat and singing, respectively, "Who's Sorry Now" and the theme from the original "Maigret" TV series. In the second clip, there is a pause in the song during which she is offered a cigarette, which she lights and proceeds to smoke as she continues.
The other clip is yet another version of "Singing in the Rain", this time performed in colour and with suitably attired accompanying dancers by Swedish jazz singer Asa Fang. OK maybe nothing special in itself but it's an attractive Scandinavian woman in a mac-what's not to like?
One terrific sighting on 60's TV which I recall vividly but which will not, I think, make it to You Tube was of a young Cilla Black singing one of her early hits while wearing a knee length, tight, shiny black skirt, which she later described as being made of "black patent". Although she told newspapers at the time that she loved black pvc macs, she referred in very disparaging terms to this particular performance and I guess that any recording was subsequently destroyed.
