This debut DVD from Simple Minds collects material from both their critical and commercial prime and includes an astonishing 26
promo videos. Featuring long unseen footage from their acclaimed 1982 Newcastle City Hall gig and
15 tracks from the 1989 Verona Concert, filmed at a time when the band ruled the planet, it is easy to see
why Simple Minds provide to be one of the most successful bands the British Isles has ever produced, selling millions of albums worldwide.
The musicianship and stage craft at times combined to stunning effect, and in Jim Kerr, Simple Minds
had a front man that only the true greats could compare with.
In their studio performances too, the Simple Minds magic is apparent. They were favourites of The Old Grey Whistle Test
and included here are five long unseen Whistle Test performances including the classic early tracks like Life In A Day
and Chelsea Girl.
The band were also at the fore front of the music video explosion and especially in their early days, they produced some stunningly challenging videos
most notably Glittering Prize and All The Things She Said.
Another highlight is the performance video of Mandela Day, filmed at
the Mandela Day concert from April 1990.
All audio and visual material in this double DVD has been digitally re-mastered and the Verona footage has been mastered in 5.1 surround sound,
up-mixed from the original stereo recording.
