Like the title says, I'm looking for the best quality video of 'Space Oddity' as performed on 'Dick Clarke's Salute to the Seventies' in 1979.
It's on 'Watch That Man' DVD vol 11 but the picture quality is pretty ropey. There is a better version on YouTube here:

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VPE1SqwqyDY

Is there a higher quality version than the Youtube one? Perhaps on a compilation video somewhere?
The reason I want it, is because (inspired by Nachos' recent work), I want to 'remaster' it and post a version of it with the 1979 vocal of Space Oddity. It never looked right to me that he was miming to a version recorded 10 years previously when his voice was quite different. So I want to match it up with the vocal recorded in the same year.

Any help finding the best picture quality for this project would be much appreciated.

Looks wonderful! And honestly, the copy you've used here looks much better than what I already had on hand

excellent, the image is better.
I haven't seen this video in a long time.
the new audio fits wonderful to Bowie restrained acting perfomance, minimalist I dare to say, as well the grey and simple scenography.
I watched first yours and then the original...yours moved me in a deep emotional way.

thanks!!!
