Hi All,

Just been watching "Treat me Nice" video clip on you tube. Made for French TV I think.

Hav'nt heard it for a while, a good rockin' catchy number.

Love the video, just a bit curious who the bass player and drummer is when they "change".
It's Alan Jones and Brian Bennet, but is it still them when the bass player changes and sings the low bit and the drummer is standing up and drumming?

Not quite sure why I need to know, but just curious!

Thanks

Tim

This is an extract from the French TV fim "Radio Flamant Rose" for the "Macdam" FR3 program (1984). It was filmed in the Camargue region.

Hi All,

Yes, that's the clip.
When they do there costume change, is it still Alan and Brian playing?
I assume they are, but they don't half look and "move" different!

Thanks for link, but is it Alan and Brian all the way through that clip.

Yes, I have no doubt that this is Hank, Bruce, Brian and Alan with Cliff arriving too late.

One soundtrack recording
Several video recordings mimed to it, one for each costume/instrument change
A cut-together of the video to make one complete video track

Thanks for clarification, Brian does look much different though!

Treat Me Nice was on the 1982 "Life in the Jungle" album, I expect they were miming to that track but I don't have the album to confirm!
The Shadows team was stable in the early 80s, Marvin, Welch & Bennett plus Jones & Hall. Shame the video quality is so poor but I can't see any reason to use a stand-in for Brian unless he was unavailable for that part of the film shoot?
