Quoincidence do u know why paper plane was left off both releases No specific reason. They obviously had something pre-planned on what they wanted to release given that both End Of The Road and More From The Road were made from the initial "suggested running order" edit, with the odd extra track added. More From The Road appears to be a rushed release - given the fact they spent more time editing down the End Of The Road release and then More From had the turn around of about 1 month or so. Roll Over Lay Down (re-used) Backwater / Just Take Me (new) Hold You Back (taken from the initial cut) Over The Edge (new) Forty Five Hundred Times (new) Big Fat Mama (taken from the initial cut) Don't Waste My Time / Credits (taken from the initial cut and EOTR) I'd love if any of the original video reels still existed, especially the pick-up cameras that captured the interviews, time-lapse during the morning and backstage / setup. I don't think there is anything else footage wise - the only new thing left for us from the MK show are the multitrack reels of the whole show and that backstage footage that Colin captured. I find it bizarre the there was no media coverage from that day. Quo's last show but no press coverage at all from the event - odd. |

Jesus £13.90 back in 1985 was a lot At the time this was the fastest & biggest selling music video in the UK. Pretty sure the shelf price was £20. Previously the original Live at the NEC video released in 1982/83 was also £20. This was a period when videos were new & just getting established so costs were high. Both original copies will now be worth a lot more than £20, especially the NEC video. |

I meant TV media coverage, similar to what the likes of the Crystal Palace show. Sounds and Kerrang did articles for the show, not sure if anyone else did - I'll check what I have. |

Back then PR & media was so low profile for everything. No internet in those days. Word of mouth & press cuttings seemed to be the normal, especially in the music business. Music magazines were big business.
