When I was a fifth grader in school, I came across a band from the UK, called "Bay City Rollers". I don't remember exactly which TV show featured them. Probably, one possibility is
a variety program called "Ginza Now" which was popular at that time.
I was really into their songs like "Bye Bye Baby" or "Saturday Night".
I clearly remember the moment that I had stood in front of an electronics store and had gazed at the screen with my heart beating fast. There was the live show recorded by the shop owner. Back then, video decks weren't common around typical Japanese households.
Through the glass of the storefront, I saw them on the screen wearing those lovely rea tartan check costumes.
I have loved the pattern of tartan check ever since. And that was also the moment when the UK became a dream country for me.

The past perfect tense isn't necessary here. It is used when talking about a past event that occurred before another past event. However, you're only talking about one past event here.
There was thea live show being recorded by the shop owner.

You don't seem to be referring to a specific live show, so the non-specific "a" would sound more natural.

I think "Rea" refers to the name of a clan...? If that's the case, then it should probably be capitalised. I'm not too familiar with textile terminology though.

Including 'in school' isn't wrong but it does sound more natural to omit it since people will assume that part.

I really liked how you described the moment you saw the band on TV. Also, this is the first time I've heard of this band but they definitely have quite the look! I wonder if this sort of look will become trendy again.
