Few shows embraced the chaos of mid-'70s TV like Hey Hey It’s Saturday, and adding a full spectrum of saturation only made it more unhinged. This clip from the NFSA collection features what is believed to be the earliest surviving colour footage of the show, recorded in the opening weeks of C-Day in March 1975.
Melbourne band Stylus perform ‘Summer Breeze’ in peak '70s fashion, and the footage captures the show’s signature mix of live music, over-the-top sets and plenty of visual spectacle. If Hey Hey had been colourful in spirit before, now it had the visuals to match.
