Dead On Time montage

Has anyone ever tried to identify the clips used?

no

i havent been active, what montage is this?

A montage was put together for when they showed it on The Old Grey Whistle Test in October of 1978(during the New Orleans soundcheck to be specific). There's also an over-the-phone interview with Brian that isn't in this particular edit

This article is really fantastic and thanks for sharing the valuable post.
Swords And Souls

One of the clips early on looks like Charlie Chaplin getting hit by a car

Identify? How? I just have no clue, I mean is it even possible to do it? If yes what should one do? Wheel
