Look and learn with Youtube

I've been a the 'tube-trawler for some years now, and far from the footage being over farmed - Youtube's online archives regularly turn up trivia, tit-bits and golden nuggets. Take just three from many I've discovered this week..
You'll know the tune - but did you know, it's Graham Bonnet (later, Lungbuster-in-Residence for Ritchie Blackmores's Rainbow) belting out a Gibb Brothers composition?
There's two more in the comments..

A wise choice, sir, if I may say so? And - yes, I knew all of those facts, because I'm a sad 60s music anorak...
Greg Kihn and Joe Satriani
I remember seeing a Greg Kihn live track on Whistle Test back in the ealry 80s with a fantastic guitarist on it....I recently discovered it was no other than uber picker Joe Satriani, pre-solo career, slumming with a bit of power pop. And of course they are on YouTube, though sadly not the track I recall....
Isn't there a Heppo connection here somewhere? Berzerkly Records etc?
I had a moment of revelation re PIL
Always loved their 'Album' album, particularly the nifty fingered guitar work. Decked when I found out a few years later the fret-melting was Steve Vai's (taught by Joe Satriani and in a band with Graham Bonnet from the first clip - this thread's fast becoming a Möbius strip)
