There will be 2 Videos - available in either VHS Pal or NTSC format, entitled 'A Rhapsody Divine' and 'Penthouse Perfection'. They feature rare TV clips, 'live' appearances, and Video promos rarely seen in the great Roxy/Ferry scheme of things. Most of the clips are excellent quality, and the very few that aren't quite as superb, have been included for their particular rarity value. So, you thought the 'Twiggy Show' appearances were destroyed, then ? Want to see Roxy performing 'Jealous Guy' for the first time ever, 'live' in Dortmund ? Never seen the rare promo Video for 'Dance With Life' or the extended 12" video version of 'Slave To Love' ? Want to see Roxy Music performing 'Grey Lagoons' on the BBC way back in 1972, when the song itself was still entitled 'The Bogus Man Part 2' ? Fancy seeing Mr. Ferry 'live' in Poland, performing 'Sonnet' ? How about another peak at the blistering violin solo of OOTB a-la Lucy W. from the ATGB Tour ? Fancy a little touch of 'live' Pyjamarama from 1973 ? Hey people, you're in the right place... Some of you will already have seen a sneak preview of some of the material, at our infamous 'A Mad Affair' party back in February. Both Videos , for your pleasure, will also have full colour glossy covers, with inserts. Each Video is approx 2 hours duration, and each one will be taken directly from the 'Master tapes' - to ensure the highest possible quality for all. Now, we do have to pay upfront for the Vids to be transferred to whichever format you go for - so all orders and payments MUST reach us by MAY 14th at the latest, for your order to be included. (Otherwise it's a wait till October at least - as we'll all be busy going to various tour dates, and will not be around to post them out during this time, so order now, or weep !) So, you have 31 days and counting - get your order in ! Videos will be sent out in the last week of May. Prices first of all, for the double Video set : (includes all postage and packing costs, by the way...) UK : 20 pounds Europe : 22 pounds USA, Japan, Rest of World : 24 pounds How to pay : 1) If you wish to pay by C/Card - then call me at work, and I'll put the payment straight through (and will give you your order ref. no, and take your name and address at the same time, obviously !) - I am there on the following days and times : 12 Noon to 6pm, UK time, on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Fridays only. (As an 'extra', I am there this coming Monday only - Easter Monday April 16th - in case any of you wish to call then). Number to call is (020) 8342 9633. If you are calling from abroad, it's 44 208 342 9633. 2) If you wish to pay by Cheque - it MUST be in English Pounds - ask your Bank, they will do this for you - (sorry, we've been asked to accept a range of other currencies which we really can't do - very time consuming and expensive for us, obviously). Cheques should be made payable to STRANDPOWER, and sent to : Strandpower, Listen, 144 Crouch Hill, London N8 9DX, U.K. As ever, with everything we produce, this is a non-profit exercise, and is a Strandpower production for Avalon. See you on the tour, and Happy Easter to all !
