Fair play AnnOminous! Commiserations. But no apologies
í wondered who could be on the other end of that Bid Now button.
So, did you manage to get 453 & 454? Now that í see the winning prices on those, í think why didn't í go for them? But perhaps there was less competition on those, to up the price. As í mentioned, the lots í got were the 3 í wanted the most; 453/454 had less treasure, or stuff replicated elsewhere.
Very interesting guesswork on your list...
451:
- Still can't imagine what a January 1993
Morrissey Package could be, or even a
Tour Demo from the previous Summer?
- The Morrissey John Maybury interview has me stumped. í too had thought it might be that MTV piece but, from the clip that í saw on YT, Moz never actually mentions Maybury by name; the uploader mentions him in their description in ref to the Jarman QiD films discussed. As far as í am aware, Moz was unaware of Maybury until Fachtna Ó Ceallaigh, his months-long manager at the time, brought him in as director on "
Our Frank". FÓC had previously had hooked him up with Sinéad O'Connor
quite successfully. {He also put him together with Juergen Teller, who had shot record covers & promo shots for Sinéad, for the wonderful Battersea promo shots in 1990}. Incidentally, regarding the QiD short film, to be frank, í doubt whether Moz even knew who Jarman was until one of the patchouli posse at Rough Trade had the brainwave; he pretty much confirms as much in that MTV clip}. Plus 1986 doesn't really fit with the time period of all the other items in the lot. Did Maybury shoot an interview with M., for "
Kill Uncle" promo purposes? Did Moz interview Maybury for the directing gig, in Tim Broads mysterious absence? Has someone mislabelled a Miss Marple?
- í still have trouble believing that a full, or even extensive video recording of the debut solo concert could exist, without
anything leaking out in 30 years? But stranger things have happened. í know the Much Music footage exists, cos í saw it, although í can't locate it at the moment, but í remember listening intently to the gig clips and noting the songs, then working out where those appeared on the set list.
- And what could "
Our Frank" version ONE have been like, if all we have is #2 here?
452:
- Ditto from me, nowt to add.
Hoping that there may be further content details elsewhere on the Palace Tim Broad 3⁄4" Master Tape labelling, as it may be some time indeed before í am able to have this material transferred to viewable media.
í can't imagine that 'they' wouldn't have dubbed Tim's Master on to a VHS {as they have done with 'Dublin', in PAL and NTSC, and many of the other items in the lots}, so í am hoping that may be on one of the unidentified VHS tapes elsewhere in the haul
455:
- í had assumed the "
In Concert" VHS was the ABC Live broadcast "
In Concert" {introduced by Ringo Starr} of the Costa Mesa 1991 show? In part? Or in whole?
- Some pro-shot, or even Jo shot, MSG footage would be a treat. í know that Tim Broad was at least filming vérité footage of M., Linder & Alain departing in a vintage white Roller, but did he film the fun inside also? Never knew the Westwood was pro shot, no clue what the LA '92 could be, outside of misprint. All 3 items are on an E-120
- í had no idea that Finsbury Park was pro-shot, or that O'Brien shot Tokyo.
- í was hoping for an alternate "
Tomorrow" {who isn't?}, and the Sunset Marquis "Joe" VHS was the one from 454 í miss most ~ that was more likely to be it. But an extra long "
Tomorrow" might, in this instance only, be a treat?
- Madrid McNab has me stumped. Could be a pal of Jo Slee's holiday video...
My hoard should be here...'
Tomorrow '...and í will pass on whatever other possible details that í can from the labelling.
As for viewing of the material, í am not currently residing with my VCR {it was a conscious separation and a very amicable split} but í do have occasional access to it, thus it may be some time before í can safely view the contents, and the condition of the media.
Well Played Ann. Happier Bidding next time {unless it's against me...}
