Wow! How fantastic to hear that performance....and in great quality sound. "M O M" was performed on BBC's "Saturday Club" on November 5th 1960 and again (a different recording) on November 19th 1960 - so it must be one of those. Superb!! It was also played on "Parade Of The Pops" (another different recording) in early December - but that was a live broadcast & could have only been taped directly from the radio at the time (plus - that was mid - week show). So...I'd rule out December. Definitely November 5th or November 19th. Brilliant!!!

That gives us a few more tips on how it was played.
Slightly different solo.
Delayed final chord.
Intro ( always a mystery)
Great stuff !
