Mo-Dettes - WHITE MICE / WHITE MOUSE DISCO - RARE VIDEO
RARE - possibly unique! I can't change the front card on the video - so, to set the record (and my faulty memory) straight... This video was Produced by Chris Reynolds and Simon Fanthorpe. Chris directed from the floor and operated one of the cameras while Ian Henges and I were in the gallery and ran VTRs and vision switched from there. Chris and Simon met the group at a gig and asked them to make the video. Later, I asked Chris if I could do my own edit and use the studio version on my directors showreel and I agreed. So apologies to Chris for forgetting the exact story - it was over 40 years ago... Shot in the primitive studio at the London College of Printing in 1979... All I have left is this dodgy quality VHS - so, with apologies for that, sit back and enjoy one of the most under-rated bands of the 80s... All hail the Mo-Dettes... Remember - No girl likes to love a wimp...
