The Sandie Shaw Supplement
Encyclopedia
The Sandie Shaw Supplement was a television show hosted by 1960s British singer Sandie Shaw
in 1968 and also the name of her fourth original album
released in November of that year by Pye Records
and re-issued shortly afterwards on the Marble Arch label. The TV show included Shaw singing the songs from the album.
Most of the shows have since been erased by the BBC, after Shaw asked for them to put the film on videotape. Only two episodes have survived and home-made copies are occasionally found on sale. The audio tracks to some episodes can sometimes be found on the internet but are generally hard to find.
