Concert Film
No official concert film has been released, yet. But the Christmas Eve concert at the Hammersmith Odeon was filmed and broadcast live on the long running BBC music programme The Old Grey Whistle Test. In 2009, the concert was rebroadcast on the BBC. This version included a newly recorded intro by Bob Harris (infront of the Hammersmith Odeon) and was slightly edited. Fans still hope for an official DVD of this somewhat legendary performance.Tour dates
