MENNUM The Illusionary Life
This comes from the album, ARC, which is now available to download from the usual places. As well as personal photos from the family archive, this video also includes shots from Mickey's Red Dogs days, through Gally's Folly, to the New Zealand touring duo 'The Mud Poets'. Also, rare pics from a one-off Wizz Jones/Mickey Ripley performance, during which Mickey had the honour of playing Wizz's legendary Epiphone guitar. Not many can say that, apparently!
