Ian Molly Meldrum on Up Tight

Again we love our goofs here at Jukebox Saturday Night and live television brings out the best of them. Here we have Ian “Molly” Meldrum (before he was even known as Molly) on the program Up Tight doing a commercial for the then top teen magazine Go Set.

We go waaaaay back with Molly who got a gig on the Hit TV Show Kommotion which was hosted by our very own Ken Sparkes!

What we like about this clip is that the floor manager and onset audience were more aware that Ian was on air than he was! At least Molly could smile about his impeccable timing!
