the complete picture!!!!

[mr. shankly]

ive been threatening to buy the dvd for at least a year and have recently become addicted once again to the smiths and morrissey so was thinking on shelling out £20 for it on my way home from work. ive heard the picture quality is a bit dodgy but not alot else and havent seen it before so the question is:
is it worth it?

cheers. think ill pick it up.
what im really after is `oye esteban` by morrissey but im having alot of difficulty getting hold of it so `complete` will tide me over.

People here also recommend 'Morrissey: Live in Dallas', though I haven't seen it yet.

yeah, i was checking that out on the net yesterday. i think thats the only other dvd available. cant remember the track listing but ill look for that too as it probably will be alot more entertaining.
the thing that puts me of `picture` is the tracks on it are way too commercial!

Well, whatever it is you prefer, you can't be wrong here.
There's also the Hullmerist Video.

How come Oye Esteban isn't available?

i cant get any of my local music stores to order it. i called hmv yesterday and they said their store was `too small` to place orders at!!!

id get it off the net but am having troubles with my bank card at the mo. as ive just been given a replacement.

might have to get off my arse one saturday morning and make the dreaded trip to the west end to pick it up.

Morrissey has a serious distribution problem apparently.

There was rumored to be a new DVD with the latest London and Paris shows.
I'm sure Sanctuary have a better distribution network.

I found Oye Esteban on the HMV website, but it says that it's a 'A Region 1/NTSC DVD' intended for North America so apparently one has to check that your DVD player will play it. I think I'm going to have to buy a DVD player now and Oye Esteban on import.

the picture quality is great.
but some of the choices are a bit odd, such as a weak mime of "Boy With A Thorn" instead of the ACE video with all the flowers.
its worth buying though, for the original videos "This Charming Man", "Panic", "Ask", "Stop Me If You've Heard This One Before" and "Girlfriend in A Coma", plus Derek Jarman's short film with "there is A Light", "The Queen is Dead" and "panic".
