Here some Mellotron/Novatron played by Nick Magnus. Steve even makes
reference to the mighty sampler when introducing the piece...  ;)

Nice clip! As it turns out, Camino Records has the DVD, although it'
s in PAL format. Thank goodness for all region DVD players!

dvd "regions" are not the same as the video format.
regions are just a flag.
PAL/NTSC are incompatible video formats.
for example, there are region 2 PAL and region 2 NTSC discs.
there are PAL-capable players [i have one] and there are all-region players.
don't get a PAL disc unless you KNOW you can play it.

bypassing the regions is trivial, playing PAL in
NTSC territory is less so, but doable of course...

Many all region DVD players will accept either PAL or NTSC. Here are 
a few examples:

is there anyone on this list that has this DVD and can convert a copy to NTSC for me (for a 
price)....I asked Camino and they said the company has no plans for an NTSC release of 
this show and I am really wanting a copy. I have a 3rd generation VHS dub of the 
show.Contact me off list at charel196@...    thanks  Charles

My Region 2, PAL format DVD arrived today. It plays fine on my el 
cheapo all region DVD player and on my computer. I think computer 
DVD drives don't care about picture format.

Nice video, although the mix could have been better. One treat is 
the beginning of Tower Struck Down where Hackett demonstrates his 
Optigan.
