    Ooops!

    I'm sorry Raphael.
    I didn't mean to edit original post, due to wonky browser accident happened.


    According to http://passionsjustlikemine.com:
    "Shoplifters Of The World Unite" [1987]
    Missing from "The Complete Picture" is an excellent video for "Shoplifters Of The World Unite", directed by Tamra Davis. It has prison shots from the movie "A Place In The Sun" featuring Montgomery Clift and Elizabeth Taylor and footage mostly from the Smiths' 10 April 1987 appearance on UK television show The Tube.
    In Download forum, 'bootlegs / downloads site directory' thread you find the link of Smiths & Morrissey promo videos.
    At the moment the server is in maintenance mode, check the link in few hours time.

    If it's "Missing from Complete Picture", why would we buy Complete Picture to watch it?

    It's not an official video as there wasn't one for the song. It's one of those ones edited by fans. There's a whole bunch of them that came along after The Smiths broke up, like that one for Girl Afraid which uses clips from old 60s rock n roll films.

    No, this one is an official video. I have it on a record company promo VHS, the kind that was sent to MTV and such in the 1980s.

    I will need to convert it from VHS. I will eventually put together a compilation of that sort of stuff when I have some time. Or else now that Morrissey is out of a record contract he will accept those offers to re-release his back catalogue, and perhaps we'll get a proper 'Complete Picture' this time.

    It's easier I wait for you, Stephane. I really don't believe that he'll accept any re-release.
    Anyway, if you will can convert your VHS I will be happy....
