"Just be very aware that this dvd title is not all-regions NTSC, but all-regions PAL (it says so on the dvd case as well), so, if your dvd player doesn't play PAL, the signal will be totally distorted. The bulk of the dvd includes the live concert footage from Oil On Canvas. The rest of the videos are for Life In Tokyo, Quiet Life, I Second That Emotion, Swing, Gentlemen Take Polaroids, Visions Of China. These are all from Virgin releases, which means nothing before Quiet Life (which is a shame). The video quality ranges from crappy old vhs source (nothing at all like the Universal Visage dvd quality) to okay. Still, I highly recommend it for any music video library. Watching David Sylvian and co. from back in the day, I couldn't help thinking I was watching underestimated genius."
