    Dahhhhhhhh!

    Having a hell of a time trying to find a trio of old music vids or DVDs. The usual suspects don't have 'em and I'm not even sure they made it out on DVD (if they didn't, that's a damned shame)

    Anyway if anyone knows anywhere I can get hold of the following, I'd be muchly appreciative..

    Talk Talk - Natural History (Best of Talk Talk compilation vid)
    Crowded House - Best of (Again, compilation vid)
    The The - Infected

    These three, particularly the last one, were all muchly prized when I had 'em on VHS but the originals either got borrowed or lost in the annals of time. And trying to find replacements is like trying to push leopard's fanny batter uphill...!

    Playse haylp!

    I've got 'Crowded House - The Videos' on DVD
    Most (if not all) the singles, plus some interview footage.
    Much as I like the band, I'm unlikely to watch it again (whereas the Sydney Opera house concert I'll never tire of).

    Yours if you want it mate. Drop me a mail to limited_immortal at yahoo.co.uk

    Got your mail Peej.
    Want to send another one with your address?

    Don't worry about money - it'll only be about 50p postage and it'll help with the ongoing New Year clearout.

    That's damned decent of you matey...! If there's any 80s stuff you're after tracking down (audio wise) give me a shout and I'll repay in kind as I've found about 550+ 80s albums kicking around in a huge cardboard box at my nan's place whilst having a new year clearout...!

    Am pretty much 100% sure that AND "Here's to Future Days" are in there...

    If I get time I'll try and knock together a list. I found Albums in the boxes that I'm pretty sure I've only listened to one track of...f'r instance these classics...

    "Animal Logic" - Animal Logic
    "The Honey Tangle" - Adult Net
    "Homelands" - Ellis Beggs and Howard
    "Checkmate" - Roger Christian.

    I used to just buy 10 at a time from ye olde HMV / Virgin sales...most of 'em are on tape but there's a fair smacker of Vinyl and CD there too...

    PLAY have it in stock too. Might just go ahead and order it as my original copy's on tape..

    The The were bloody good back in the day before Matt Johnson turned into some sort of gay cowpoke..the "Infected" video particularly - that's a serious headfuck.

    Back in 1990 I saw them at the Leadmill Sheffield prior to the Reading Festival and they were brilliant. One of the best live shows I've been to. I lost touch with the band after Dogs of Lust which was a good album but a bit over produced.

    Don't suppose you can remember what you've got on vinyl?
