The Holy Grail!! Stina performing Live!!!! Amazing! Grab it while you can!
Actual footage of the Opening of the Swedish Parliament in 1990(?) The guy at the beginning is...the King of Sweden.Really! :D
That's Anders Persson on piano,rest of the Flippermen sitting around-so they must have played more at some point.
Stina's perky version of 'One more for the road' is in huge contrast to the ur-version recorded by Sinatra in the Capitol years.

Good find Dave. :)
The performance took place on October 1st 1991,a few weeks before the release in Sweden of 'Memories Of A Color'

Interesting that the only facial close up on Stina is in profile with the full-on shots reserved for long distance band shots.
Almost as if even then Stina was saying 'keep your distance'. :mrgreen:

Anyway,I've succesfully downloaded it.......and I don't have to software to play it. [b)]

Do you Windows people not have access to VLC? (software is free to DL,at least to Macs). VLC will play any type of video; and there are presumably loads of software apps to DL from YouTube.Once you have it as an .flv file,such as Alex has posted,VLC will play it,no problem.

In answer to Barrett's question,it seems weird to me that the rest of the band should have turned up at the Swedish Parliament and set their instruments up if they weren't going to play anything...so there must be some more.If only the Swedish National anthem... :mrgreen:

This afternoon I've been in touch with ex-Flipperman Christian Spering who informs me that the band on the stage are NOT the Flippermen but another group who were waiting to play.Christian recognises bassist George Riedel and trumpet player Jan Allan.

For this appearence,it was just Stina and Anders Persson but unfortunately Christian can't remember how many songs they performed.

It may have been just this one song.

As far as Christian remembers,no video documentation exists of Stina & the Flippermen although he does remember the radio broadcasts.
