Not to mention Hand in Glove by the Smiths. Not even This Charming Man which at least has a semblance of a riff.

Smoke on the water has the stupidest riff in history

Good to see proper AC/DC with Bon Scott.
Must admit I fast forwarded it when the Swinton veggie started gyrating around...

The clue might be in your title? you basically had TOTPs and Old Grey Whistle Test, I don't think Led Zep ever played either of those and how would you have shown 'the theme tune from TOTPs', which incidentally was CCS not Led Zep, I think the programme was about showing bands playing. I suppose CCS might have played OGWT, dunno.

its worth catching 'totally british: 70s rock n roll' on the i player if you can - part 2 in particular, lots of pub rock. also ogwt 70s gold on the same night.
