I have that Solid Gold performance of Sundown on VHS tape. Must have taped it in about 1983 or 84. Tape still works. Yes, Sundown was lip-synced.

At the end of the program, Gord does a duet with Marilyn McCoo of "If You Could Read My Mind." That definitely was not lip synced.

I should find a way to get it onto DVD... but now that technology is old hat.

The tape then immediately cuts off and an old Star Trek episode, "The Doomsday Machine" starts. I don't know what I was thinking at the time. During those years, taping from TV was high-tech and VHS recorders cost real money.
