Hawkwind: The Solstice at Stonehenge 1984
Hawkwind plays the final Peoples' Free Festival at Stonehenge during the Summer Solstice and this tiny snippet of film is an amazing yet important document of a time when there was still the free spirit of independence and nonconformity. Blasting its audience into deep space with their high-octane space rock and surreal theatrics of it lead-singer, it really is time to buckle your seat belts and take a trip into times' long gone past.

The Police - Outlandos To Synchronicities
This is an excellent video and a must for any Police fan worthy of the name. Featuring TV performances - notably the "Old Grey Whistle Test", their first ever TV appearance - and live concert footage from the much bootlegged Hatfield Polytechnic Show in February 1979 (including the first ever live performance of 'Message In A Bottle'), Miami's Gusman Theater in 1979, Gateshead Stadium in July 1982 and the Atlanta Omni in 1983. All the performances are interspersed with the band's own personal Super-8 footage and interviews with all the band members and their manager, Miles Copeland. A truly fascinating video.
