Video from correct era but I would not know him from a man on the street so I can't say Ian is in the video.
I also did not listen long enough to see if there are any shots of the bass anyhow, as the era when guitarists and bassist strived to sound like keyboards hurts my ears.

An excellent bassist, seen here in a couple of recent videos: http://www.jhs.co.uk/jennifermaidman.html |

I kept looking at the video, one shot just about lets you see the headstock - Wal.
Thanks for the help guys.
