Have you noticed that they've missed off half of MSC on the back. Only mention 3 of them. And they haven't given the lark medley it's proper title.

Hmmmm, that's pretty shabby isn't it...It's really not hard to get stuff like this right is it?  Is it?

Until I looked at the new cover, I'd completely forgotten that Gerry was in MSC.....


Was he? He is on the album Matthews Southern Comfort, made before there was a band of the same name
I doubt it is Gerry behind the drums at this concert, though.
Not that I know exactly how he looked in his younger days, but I think it's not him here
Look for yourself:

If it is not him, the coverinfo is even worse than we thought

THere are plenty of reviews of the video - or there were, when it came out - has anything changed? I know there are additions, I think, but the whole video is on the DVD, no?

I'm still trying to find someone who has it in stock...at a cheap price

The sites that I nosed around from the find-cd.co.uk site did mention that this was an NTSC coded disc.

You might want to check them out yourself. But I couldn't find anyone stocking it (and had stock) at less than full price.

More interestingly the film also features two songs from Matthews Southern Comfort the band led by former Fairport Convention member Ian Matthews.


Why is that more interesting?


Finally got round to watching the interview with Mr. Palmer on this DVD today and I realise why their appearance
is mildly interesting as he tells us we have Michael Winner to thank for MSC's appearance and in fact Stanley Baker's
tax affairs for FC's own appearance plus many other comings together of course but these things don't happen
without the finance.

Blimey - who'd have thought that we'd have to thank Michael Winner for anything?!?!
