Greetings

Having been a collector of these such recordings both audio and visual for many years I thought it about time to finally get around to cataloging them into some sort of order, with the hope that any like minded fellows out there who dabble themselves, would not only find this of some interest but perhaps might want to set up a trade or few!

I do not however sell or buy any items, trades only!!

If anyone wants to set up a trade or has any additional information regarding the posts on this Blog, then please contact deadeye63@hotmail.co.uk

tOMORROWS WORLD END SEQUENCE 1979
1979 photo gallery


every now and then something a little special makes into the public domain and this is one such thing! The main footage was filmed at the empire theatre in paris and was broadcast on french tv. It may only contain 5 tracks but is a great little piece of footage all the same. picture quality is excellent, slight distortion on the sound but that can be easily over looked in this case!

The ‘outtakes’ are in fact footage filmed from the front row of the audience to the far side of hugh on what would seem to have been a little cine-camera. both picture and sound quality are very good considering its age.

the wembley footage is filmed from a long way away from the stage on what would seem to have been another cine-camera. only runs to 3 mins in total but to my knowledge this is the only footage in circulation from this gig.

the ‘tomorrows world’ footage is a good little oddity! seem to remember the actual segment of the program was about pyrotechnics and this clip of ‘toiler’ was used as the end credits rolloed up!

the photo gallery is a collection of photos from the period.
