Air Supply - All Out Of Love- The Ultimate Performance. CD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD100) Hankies at the ready. . .Russell Hitchcock and Graham Russell, aka Air Supply, are back, they're in your town and practically every song's a ballad. The band who make Journey, Toto, Les Holroyd's BJH and REO Speedwagon sound like Flipper, Bad Brains, Napalm Death and Anal Cunt by comparison, possibly the ultimate name in soft rock and the doyen of a million 80s arenas. Actually, in all seriousness, it's easy to poke fun but the truth is that Hitchcock and Russell are great songwriters and masters of the melodic craft, no more, no less. This DVD was filmed on their reunion tour in 2004, and shows they've lost none of their old magic as they treat an enraptured (or 'rapt' as they say Down Under) audience to 'Even The Nights Are Better' 'Lost In Love' 'Every Woman In The World' 'Here I Am' 'Sweet Dreams' 'Making Love Out Of Nothing At All' (a personal favourite of your scribe) and of course 'All Out Of Love', the song that ate everybody in the early 80s out of Kleenex!! The fact is, 25 years on, there's still no-one that does this kinda stuff better. Wanna learn to write a classic love song? Buy this, listen up, and watch very very carefully!!

Angelic Upstarts - Solidarity- Angelic Upstarts Live. DVD.

All captured for the first time on a glorious Region 0 PAL DVD!!! A cover of 'White Riot' is totally unneccessary- the band's own songs are strong enough- but buying this is very necessary indeed. About as punk and disorderly as it's possible to get.

Belle Stars - Sign Of The Times- The Belle Stars Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD108) The first ever Belle Stars Region 0 DVD commercially available.

Takes one back to those heady days of student sit- ins, faux-lesbian haircuts, Red Wedge, Hackney Council squats, and deelyboppers- or, if you were the age of certain Freak Emporium writers, sitting on the bus to school substituting the words 'Rubber johnny' for 'Rubber dolly'. And yes, we all did it, so don't even think about trying to deny it. . .

Burning Britain - Various. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD62) As the Seventies drew to a close and the media declared punk dead and buried, a whole new breed of band was emerging from the gutter.

Cud - When At Home, Film Me. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD84) First ever DVD release to feature live footage of this most quirky, eccentric and iconoclastic of late 80s/early 90s indie bands, fronted by the slightly loopy Carl Puttnam, an Essex boy lost in Leeds. Obviously much beloved of John Peel (and David Gedge, who signed them), they soon excelled on- where else- the Northern college circuit, where this footage was recorded. Taken from two incendiary gigs on their Winter 1989 tour (Leeds and Bradford, unsurprisingly) and featuring the type of skewed 'anarcho-romantic' pop they made their own on tracks such as 'Only A Prawn In Whitby' 'Van Van Van' 'Art' 'I've Had It With Blondes' and 'Robinson Crusoe'.

Upon the Lemon Kittens' 1982 split, Dax mounted a solo career. She debuted a year later with Pop-Eyes, a true solo effort for which she wrote and performed every song alone, even handling mixing and production duties and distributing the record through her own Awesome label. While her heavy makeup and colossal hair aligned her with the thriving "Batcave" Goth scene, she steadfastly avoided easy pigeonholing, even making the leap into film with appearance's in Neil Jordan's Brithorror hit The Company of Wolves. Dax returned to music in 1984 with the Jesus Egg That Wept EP, and went on to recruit a live band, emerging as a significant concert draw; a series of singles including 1985's "Yummer Yummer Man," 1986's "Where the Flies Are," 1988's "Cat-House" and 1989's "White Knuckle Ride" - each slightly more commercial than the last - also established her as a force on the independent charts, and after the success of 1987's 'Inky Bloaters' LP, she signed to Sire.

DOA - Positively DOA- DOA Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD125) The first ever DVD to feature one of the great Punk bands of all time - D.O.A. It wasn't long before punk rock expanded beyond just New York City, London, and Los Angeles during the mid-late '70s, as evidenced by the emergence of the long-running Vancouver, Canada based outfit, D.O.A. Originally formed in 1978, D.O.A. has been led from the beginning by singer/guitarist Joe Keithley, aka 'Joey Shithead,' who has been joined by a wide variety of other bandmates through the years. The same year as their formation, D.O.A. issued a debut EP, Disco Sucks, before following it up with a pair of full lengths that many longtime fans consider D.O.A.'s classic recordings, 1980's Something Better Change and 1981's Hardcore '81. Since the beginning Keithley has been unafraid to voice his political opinions (a renown D.O.A. slogan among their faithful is 'TALK-ACTION 0') which, at one point, landed him in jail. D.O.A. would go on to issue albums throughout the '80s and '90s (including such highlights as 1982's War on 45, 1985's The Dawning of a New Error, 1993's Loggerheads, etc.). Keithley also runs his own indie record company, Sudden Death Records, and issued an autobiography in late 2003, titled 'I, Shithead: A Life in Punk.' D.O.A. continues strong to this day, as evidenced by such releases as 2002's Win the Battles. As a result of Keithley's hard work, D.O.A. is often name checked as an important influence by otherhardcore/punk bands, including such notables as Green Day, the Offspring, Rancid, and Propagandhi, among others. "Positively D.O.A" features a full show from the band during their 1984 tour of the UK.

Einsturzende Neubaten - 1/2 Mensch (Halber Mensch). DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD80) ACHTUNG!!!! Der new buildings zey are kollapsink upon mein kopf!! Such a statement may sound like utter nonsense but accurately describes not only the translation of the name of these German industrial pioneers, but also the sound made by their uncompromising, groundbreaking music. A fascinating, sometimes unlistenable (in the best way, of course) combination of clanging rhythmic noise (produced by both drum machines and genuine industrial materials such as power drills), white noise guitar fuzz and the gurgling vocals of Blixa Bargeld, at last available for the first time on DVD!!

But their studio performance was only an inkling of their stage presence. Soon GBH earned a reputation for being amongst the most exciting and intense performers on the scene, their gigs a blaze of irreverent punk rock posturing and high-speed savagery.

Gun Club - Live At The Hacienda- Preaching The Blues. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD122) The first ever DVD one of the outstanding alternative bands of the 1980's - The Gun Club. Tribal, psychobilly blues is the best way to describe Gun Club's energetic death rock, the band's leader Jeffrey Lee Pierce' had a reputation as an unreliable, and well-publicized bouts of drunkenness dogged him throughout his career. Formed in Los Angeles in the early '80s, the band rested more comfortably around the New York downtown set and Pierce's mentors, Debbie Harry and Chris Stein. Their 1981 debut, Fire of Love, was a punk/blues hybrid - intense energy fueled Pierce's exorcism-in progress delivery and the band's frenetic style. 1982's Miami album was produced by Blondie's Chris Stein - Pierce had once been the president of Blondie's U.S. fan club which sparked the liaison. For Las Vegas Story in 1984, the Club won over guitarist Kid Congo Powers from the Cramps and Patricia Morrison (the Bags) on bass and it looked as if that was that when, save for some live recordings and posthumous releases, Pierce launched his solo career in 1985 with the EP Flamingo and the Wildweed album for the Statick label. But it wasn't quite over; in 1987 Pierce came back with a realigned Club and the album, Mother Juno (Fundamental) which earned them a wider following than ever. In 1996, after drying-out, but suffering from persistent health problems, Pierce passed away from a brain hemorrhage. Morrison went on to play with the Sisters of Mercy and eventually the Damned, Powers in his own lounge group and Dotson formed the Pontiac Brothers. The group were one of the most popular draws on the live circuit during their mid-1980's heyday - and "Live At The Hacienda" captures two visits the band made to Manchester's legendary venue. Yes, not everyone in Manc in the mid 80s was walking round in baggies, cardigans and paisley shirts!! Jeffrey Lee Pierce remains a legend to his many fans and a biopic of the frontman is currently in production.

Mama's Boys - Mama Weer All Crazee Now- Mama's Boys Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD118) The first ever DVD to feature one of the biggest names from the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal- Belfast's Mama's Boys. Comprised of a trio of brothers form the clan McManus- to whit Pat, John and Tommy, the band issued several albums during the early to mid 80s, such as the classics 'Turn It Up' and 'Power And Passion', and in their mixture of strutting hard rock and traditional Irish influences, recalled early Thin Lizzy- although with more of an AOR slant than their mentors had ever displayed. Despite heavy rotation on MTV with a cover of Slade's "Mama Weer All Crazee Now" and success in Germany (no surprise there) the Boys, like so many UK/Eire bands in the 80s, suffered at the hands of America and poodle metal (and in particular, Kerrang's obsession with it) and never broke through. Then in the mid 90s, powerhouse drummer Tommy passed on, ensuring the band would never attain the success many felt they had deserved. Eventually they evolved into Celtus- but that's a different story altogether!! This Region O PAL DVD should remind us all what a grea band they were.

Nico - All Tomorrow's Parties- Nico Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD123) A brand new, previously unseen DVD featuring one of the great all-time rock music icons - Nico. One of the most fascinating figures of rock's fringes, Nico hobnobbed, worked, and was romanticallylinked with an incredible assortment of the most legendary entertainers of the '60s. Nico first rose to fame as a European supermodel, also landing a bit part in Fellini's La Dolce Vita film. In the mid-1960's she moved to New York, where Andy Warhol installed her as a vestigial presence and occasional lead singer for the Velvet Underground. The band never really accepted her as a bona fide member and she departed in 1967, but not before contributing unforgettable deadpan vocals to three of the songs on theirclassic 1967 debut album. Nico embarked on a solo career, recording folk-rock-flavored songs for her debut Chelsea Girl albumwith assistance from Jackson Browne, Lou Reed, and John Cale. Her 1969 follow-up, The Marble Index, was a dramatic departure that unveiled her doom-laden, gothic persona, produced by Cale andprominently featuring her deep vocals, impenetrable lyrics, and ghostly harmonium. Her subsequent '70s albums explored much the same territory, with assistance from Cale and influential art rockers like Brian Eno. She fought a constant struggle with a massive drug habit and tangled personal life and eventually died of a cerebral hemorrhage (whilst riding her motorbike) in Ibiza in 1988.The original goth rocker, Nico's albums are demanding and bleak, but map a unique and starkly powerful vision that has become more influential with age. "All Tomorrow's Parties" features extremely rare material from two shows Nico played in the UK in the early 1980's..

Nothin' But Trash - Garage Punk 60s Sound. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD115) Believe it or not the Swingin' Sixties didn't just spawn mega-pop groups like the Beatles, Stones and Monkees. The decade of love also gave birth to something far darker and dirtier, and arguably much more fun. Yes, the sixties were also responsible for producing the seeds of what would eventually become Punk Rock. The legacy of such icons as The Sonics, The 13th Floor Elevators and The Monks lives on today, and over the past two decades has produced cult sensations such as Thee Milkshakes, The Prisoners and Kaisers. A filthy hybrid of Bad Taste, Rhythm n Blues, rockabilly, surf sounds and all that is unholy, Trash Punk is one of the most enduring forces in the rock n roll underground. This DVD compilation covers nearly twenty years of (the second wave of) Garage Punk and Sixties Style rock, AKA Trash and showcases some of the legendary characters that have emerged on the scene. Never anything less than inventive, 'Nothin But Trash' shows exactly why this debauched tradition survives to this very day - It's bloody good fun. From cult heroes The Gun Club and Link Wray to more recent contenders to the throne Saturn V and Empress of Fur, it's no frills and big thrills all they way as we visit the seediest venues in the UK and spend time at 2003's Wild Weekend in Benidorm, Spain. A mixture of live and promo footage showcases one of most thriving genres of underground music history and present.

Oi,Oi,Oi - Various. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD65) By the end of the 1970s, punk in Britain was splintering into several distinct strains, most of them quite "arty". Oi! music was an attempt to keep punk a populist, street-level phenomenon, and most of it came from the working class of South London and the cockney East End. Taking its name from the Cockney Rejects song Oi! Oi! Oi! (before which it was simply known as street-punk), Oi! was loud, brutal, and extremely simple. In essence, it was punk rock that was most at home in a rowdy pub. The Oi! movement was marked by strenuously collectivist politics and chanted, football-cheer choruses. it's a celebration of the Oi scene, featuring both live performance and interview footage from some of the main players in the genre including Peter And The Test Tube Babies, Sham 69, The Toy Dolls and The Exploited.Region 0 PAL disc

One Way System - No Return/All Systems Go. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD26) The first ever DVD to feature one of Punk’s most enduringly popular and uncompromising bands, One Way System. Not so much a compilation as a potted history of the career of North West England’s premier punk outfit from 1982 to 1997. One Way System first lit up the second wave punk revolution with their fresh faced, no nonsense sound in the early eighties, when Oi! and skinhead culture had all but rejected the original punk ethic. One Way System managed to bridge the gap. From the front cover of Sounds to the Olympic Auditorium in Los Angeles, the System remained sharp and impressive, their natural aggression and un-faulting professionalism sealing their reputation as one of the most exciting bands on the international punk circuit. The ‘comeback’ gig at the 1996 Holidays In The Sun festival only proved that One Way System are still a force to be reckoned with. A year later they were taking Japan by storm. A new millennium has rolled by and One Way System still impress. Touring Europe and the USA. Playing to enthusiastic crowds they remain as hard hitting and entertaining as ever. The DVD features never been seen before footage, candid interviews and a soundtrack to die for.

Amongst the tracks featured are One Way System classics including Indie Chart hits, "Jerusalem" and a cover of Slade's "Cum On Feel The Noise".

Peter Perrett - Another Girl Another Planet- Peter Perrett Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDS - CRDVD127) The first ever DVD to feature one of the enigmatic greats of UK music - Peter Perrett. As leader of the Only One's in the late '70s, Peter Perrett was one of the new wave's most enigmatic cult figures.His mix of then-current punk/new wave sounds with traces of glam helped pave the way for the more flexible alternative rock sounds of the 1980s and '90s. Serious drug problems knocked him out of commission for most of the 1980s, and indeed he kept such a low profile that a Syd Barrett-like mystique began to arise around him. Defeating his addictions in the late '80s, he began to ease back into music, finally releasing an EP of new material in 1994, and thenrecording a full-length album, Woke Up Sticky, the following year."Another Girl Another Planet" features clips from Perrett playing a full live show at London's Mean Fiddler.

After the "Open Up" tour, they headed back home to record their third album 'Flesh & Blood', in 1990.

Psychic TV - Black Joy. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDS - JE190D) The filming for this began in 1988 and one would suspect that it was destined to end there.

The Quakes are one of the best-known U.S. Psychobilly acts and gained a large and devoted European following during the late 1980's. The band has continued playing until the present - influencing the scene in their native USA, throughout Europe and in Japan and touring all three continents. Their popularity in the Far East even resulted in a major label deal with Sony. Skitzo are one of the most successful acts from the UK scene and made a massive impact at the time of this performance. Skitzo released two albums - 'Skitzo Mania' and 'Terminal Damage' - and quickly became a major band on the scene, particularly in London where they were based. The rumours of a Skitzo reunion regularly circulate and their popularity remains undiminished. The Klingonz hold a reputation as one of the most visually exciting bands on the scene and are still gigging to the present day. The band appeal to the wackier side of Psychobilly, taking all of its elements to the extreme. Crazier in appearance with bizarre hair-cuts, more offensive songs, and playing faster than their contemporaries, they made a huge impact with their insane performances and album releases which boasted titles like 'Mongo', 'Flange', 'Jabot' and 'Bollix'. Their popularity spread right across Europe and into Japan, where a 'Best Of' album was released. NB: This DVD is nothing to do with the British horror film soundtrack 'Pyschomania'.

Test Department - Program For Progress. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD81) Alongside Throbbing Gristle, Cabaret Voltaire, SPK, Neubaten and Nurse With Wound, Test Dept. represented the best of the then new Industrial music to come out of Europe in the early 80s. Like Neubaten (but with a more explicit left wing political stance) their music often involved the use of scrap iron, power tools and self-made instruments: indeed, live performances were conducted using whatever they salvaged on the way to the show, which was normally performed in an obscure, often quite literally industrial, venue. This DVD- the first ever release of its kind from the band- was made in 1984 as a film to accompany the album of the same name, featuring both live and 'art' material, and as such is an indespensible document. Sheer genius from the days when Industrial meant more than just plastic hair, PVC trousers and an attitude problem.

Idle Gossip" packs in more craziness from the Toy Dolls, this time sporting pink hair and a dazzling array of new suits. Fast and furious songs filled with colourful characters and amusing anecdotes performed in a multitude of different locations. Many of the Dolls hits are contained here; "We’re Mad", "Deirdre’s A Slag", "She Goes To Fino’s" and of course, the original promo of the unforgettable "Nellie The Elephant," their massive chart hit.

Wendy O Williams - Bump N Grind- Wendy O Williams Live. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD120) The first ever offcial DVD of one of America's greatest punk rock talents (and still, to this day, one of its saddest losses) Wendy O Williams. Formerly leader of the Plasmatics, and noted for her no-holds barred, riotous, often obscene stage act (which sometimes bordered on the kind of performance art specialised in by Kathy Acker and Karen Findlay) which got her banned in London on several occasions before Rock Bitch were even out of their school skirts!! This set is taken from her "WOW" tour which promoted the solo debut of the same name in 1985: it is not for the faint hearted or anyone who doesn't know how to rock'n'roll!! A priceless testament to a much missed character. Courtney who?? Oblocks. Wendy was the first and is still the best. Region 0 PAL.

William Burroughs - Thee Films. DVD. (Cherry Red DVDs - CRDVD 146) Unique collection comprising of all the films made during the lengthy period of collaboration between William Burroughs, Brion Gysin, and the radical British film-maker Anthony Balch. Their partnership began in the '60's with Balch making a realtively straightforward film capturing the essence of Burroughs writing on film and capturing the key themes and situations featured in his books. Their following work was more avant garde, each scene being filmed and editied before they cut up the finished film and randomly spliced it back together to express Burroughs' work ethic. Ever since Balch's death in 1980, the experimental films remained untouched until the intervention of Psychic TV's Genesis P.Orridge salvaged and archived the footage. Bonus 50 minute film called "Ghosts at No. 9" uses cut-ups of film and superimpositions, material from the extensive archive of Psychick TV. Five films in total. 90 mins long.
