More information: This is a re-packaged version of the Hammersmith DVD recording from March 2nd 1979, with new artwork.
In the week before this concert took place, PYE Records decided to have the show videoed. The video was shot by Trillion using five cameras. Audio was recorded by Virgin Mobile, and the soundtrack has survived and is remarkably good. The original individual camera tapes were wiped by Trillion after PYE decided not to pursue a video release. All that remained of the video was a rough mix of the show done on the night by the video company who had no idea of what to expect. Video footage used on this DVD is a recently discovered VHS copy of that rough and the visual quality is what you would expect to be given the circumstances. This DVD contains the whole show with the exception of Francis Lickerish's intro to Fand and Albion Fair which for technical reasons on the night was not recorded.
