Both Nik and Jeff Chenault shot video.

But IF the sound quality off of the room mic is acceptible, there are still legal and copyright issues involved in releasing the recording.

The publisher of the songs would want their cut, the musicians (many of whom were union players) would need a contract and might request payment, and Mr. Drasnin would probably require that the distribution be through a legit source... perhaps Dioysis records for example.

I have no say in the matter, and no control over these issues, I am just pointing out some potential hurdles to overcome with an 'official' release. I've been talking to Mr. Drasnin, and he hasn't mentioned any plans to release the video. But after he sees/hears anything that Jeff or Nik might assemble, perhaps he'll get excited enough to want to do something. I can't say, really.

Now: as for Voodoo II - Mr. Drasnin and I have been talking on the phone about it, and there is some interesting news, which I will bring up in another thread.
