Jean
Helfer: "This
video is from France. It is Ring Parade, a weekly show by Guy
Lux on Antenne 2. I was there with Billy and Bobby. Bobby had
huge trouble with the color of his jacket. The blue screen on
the back ground used in the seventies for the incrustations
made Bobby appear without his body. We spent a lot of time in
the accessories room to find a perfect jacket. The show was in
1975."
