Compilation of performances from singer-songwriters including Bob Dylan, Gilbert O'Sullivan, Graham Nash and David Crosby, Labi Siffre, Gil Scott-Heron, Roy Harper and Janis Ian.

The celebration of the singing songwriting troubadours of the 1960s and 70s concludes with a further trawl through the 成人论坛 archives for timeless and classic performances.

Starting things off, a 23-year-old Bob Dylan performing on the 成人论坛's Tonight programme in 1964. On It's Lulu from 1971, 'Bisto Kid' lookalike singer-songwriter Gilbert O'Sullivan, while from a concert in 1970 buddies Graham Nash and David Crosby perform Nash's Marrakesh Express. Londoner Labi Siffre makes an appearance from the archives, as does fellow English songwriter Michael Chapman.

From the Old Grey Whistle Test in 1976, Gil Scott-Heron performs alongside his band and life-long collaborator Brian Jackson, and the musician's musician Roy Harper performs One of Those Days in England with a full band on The Old Grey Whistle Test. Grammy award winner Janis Ian performs Tea and Sympathy and, to round things off, a rare sighting of Kate Bush performing on The Leo Sayer Show in 1978.
