For a VHS tape nearly four decades old the video and audio are in top notch condition. Good work, and nice to see the band playing live on TV not miming. Which TV channel was this on?

_This_ was state of the art video recording in 1991? Really? I'm sure my VHS machine was better than that.

No sure who said this was state of the art, but it wasn't me LOL. This is from a very old, poor quality vhs tape. Would love to see if anyone else has a better copy.

@@winman42 My point, which I should have clarified, is that KZbin seems to be almost the only public outlet for music concert video these days, as physical media is close to vanishing. Why are we limited to such dismal quality recordings of music that has great personal and historical value? I suspect that the original professional master of this concert has long since been consigned to landfill which is close to criminal. We need a national archive like the US Library of Congress for these.

Argh. Had this taped on Betamax(!) from when it was broadcast on the telly. The energy in this performance did/does raise the hairs on my arms. The solo Boon pulled out of his locker was very special I thought. He was the guitar hero version of a mate who doesn't talk much; but when he does, it's worth listening to. Massively influenced by his playing.

Oh I remember this. When it was released I thought that synth trumpet riff was decidedly cheesy, being just too obvious a 'catchy hook' to get radio play. Still the case today. "1st single from the "Staring At The Son" album"? Whose son is being stared at, and should I call the authorities?

The redhead in this video looks the spitting image of the young Carol Decker of T'PAU fame, although I don't think that's actually her. I wonder if they are related?

You're right to want the release of Fait Accompli, but who releases Blu Ray music videos these days? We are in the decline of high-quality music concert video, sadly. There might not be a business model for it any more. It means that most acts are seen on video only through fans' phones.

'Children Say' was the fifth single release from Level 42's huge selling LP 'Running In The Family', but it only got to a disappointing No22 in the UK charts. Mark and Mike filmed this official promo video in Paris, France on their own, as both Phil and Boon had already left the band by that point. It's still one of my all time favourite hit singles of theirs. Presumably, the young French girl who is also featured in the video must be in her late forties by now.

Pretty much every bass solo he’s done in the last 40 years is a derivative of the one he did in the early 80s, notably on the Physical Presence live recording. …except this one. This one starts in E minor and stays there, like all the others. But the melodic idea is unique and he ends up emphasizing the III and IV with the major IV giving a Dorian feel. I also like how he ends this one. It’s his most creative solo and my favorite.
