PET SHOP BOYS TELEVISION (1986) (Remastered from LaserDisc to DVD)

Description

Released exclusively on the long since discontinued and deleted formats of Betamax, VHS worldwide including UK, Japan, Netherlands, Germany, Australia, France, Spain, (from 1986 to 1988), CDV format as well in addition to the final high quality version on LaserDisc in 1991. The following has NEVER been released on DVD until NOW!

Background: This Music video/TV performances collection was issued on the VHS throughout Europe and the US. It’s interesting to note that it was even released on Betamax in the UK at one point. However the only NTSC release was a Japanese LaserDisc which this REMASTERED DVD comes from. Even now the import LaserDisc of this Music video/TV performances collection goes for over $40.00. Still to this day, this Music video/TV performances collection  has NEVER been officially released here in America in ANY format other than VHS until NOW! So here it is for the first time ever on DVD for all the PSB Collectors. This REMASTERED DVD is sourced directly from the original high quality Japanese only LaserDisc and mastered here to DVD for the first time!

Description: “Television” was the first collection of Pet Shop Boys videos. Clips of PSB appearing on various music programs around the globe are included. It shares images and typography with Pet Shop Boys – Disco. The “Excerpts” are excerpts from various promotional appearances PSB made on international music video programs through out the world including but not limited to Australia, UK and USA.
