Hi all... Last call please, for the forthcoming Strandpower/Avalon vids 'A Rhapsody Divine' and 'Penthouse Perfection'. Orders in by May 28th at the latest please, if you require them, and haven't ordered as yet. The tapes go in on May 30, so we do need a definite figure of numbers required by then. Sorry to say, there will now NOT be a 'second run' of the Vids in September, sorry, it has proved very very expensive to produce them in small numbers, so basically this is it ! Due to the 'closing date' being extended, it does of course mean the finished product will be mailed out slightly later, as we will not now get them back until June 5th, just a day before many of us set out for Dublin, for the start of the Roxy tour. However, we'll get as many Tapes mailed out as poss, in that 24 hour period - so the earliest orders we received will go out then. The next batches will be mailed out on our return from the Dublin/Glasgow/Newcastle soirees, around June 14th. The ever efficient Chris T. now has them listed at his Roxyrama Site www.roxyrama.com, for anyone wishing to remind themselves of the content of the Vids - under 'Miscellany' then 'Video Tapes'. For most of you, it'll also be a first glance at the front covers for the Videos... No doubt, many of us will meet (again !) on the forthcoming tour, and I look forward to seeing many of you at TOTP on Wednesday...

In the late 70's I bought a lot of pictures from the Viva! / Let's stick together / 801-live & more - photographer Richard Wallis. ( His Roxy pics can also be found on the boot: Why do you think I'm a funky chick?) I remember I bought several wonderful R.A.H.- pictures from Bryan's 1974 performance + loads of Roxy Wembley 75 and 801/Manzo-stuff. Unfortunately I can only find some of the Roxy 1975-pics & alternate LST-pics (not used on the cover). Does anyone know the whereabouts of mr Wallis these days? He used to live in London. I would like to buy some more of his excellent stuff.
