Al Stewart and Tori Amos, Royal Festival Hall, 1991.
The story behind this clip is that the person scheduled to play piano had to cancel at the last minute, so Stewart called Amos in to do it (They knew each other as she sang back-up on one of his albums a few years earlier). Problematically, Amos had been having Visa/Passport issues (She had just been given an advance for her next album, and was staying in London to write songs, but didn't have clearance to perform). So Stewart decided that the best way around this was to make up a new identity for her - one that, judging from the clip, she really wasn't expecting.
