I hope this may help, its the only one I know of from an old 'Wogan' show. Its mimed, but seems reasonably authentic

If you Google or search in YouTube "Moonlight Shadow," you will see many versions, including the original sung version (Hank plays it in a different key). There is also a version by a very attractive Spanish singer, who sings it a bit off key and in a somewhat ploddy manner, but, as my cousin the musician notes, "one look into her eyes and all is forgiven."
Hank's riff at the end is fantastic; I wonder if I'll ever be able to play it.
Yes, it is a catchy tune and hard to get rid off. I find myself humming it unexpectedly.

Hi Jeff
I found "Moonlight Shadow" on a tape from Shadowmania 2006. I don't know if you can use it. You can download it here:
It's difficult to see how Phil is playing. I didn't have the best view.
