Notes: "Blankit`s First Show" is a film directed by Barry Chattingham & produced by Linda & Paul McCartney with a soundtrack
mostly performed by Paul including one unreleased song (at the time) called "All You Horse Riders" from 1979.This film is about
one of Linda`s appaloosa horses called "Blankit" who is taking part in its first competition. The short film was broadcast
by the BBC in July 1986.A sequel was made in the 90`s called "Appaloosa" containing more unreleased music.

Interesting bit of trivia. It seems that a VHS video was being put together featuring "Blankit`s First Show" and the sequel
"Appaloosa" beacause in the Autumn 1992 issue of Paul`s fan mag "Club Sandwich", along with a review of the "Appaloosa" film,
there was a pic of what looked like cover art for a Video release (see pic in this entry).However it was never released. It is
worth noting that neither Linda or Paul are seen in this film. Linda does however narrate for a couple of minutes towards the end.
