This is not one that I seen before. YT notes indicate it was filmed in Belgium... in 1972. Song is... The Return of the Giant Hogweed. Very prog rock - and the tapping mirrors what is being played on keyboard (go figure). the camera crew was more interested in the singer and keyboard player in the vid, but the tapping at the beginning is undeniable. From their 3rd studio album in fall of 1971, titled Nursery Cryme.

hint: stop the YT vid at the 10 second mark or you'll get some Peter Gabriel all over ya.
