THE COMPLETE STRAWBS, LIVE AT CHISWICK HOUSE
Witchwood Media, 2002

The fantastic 30th anniversary concert staged in the grounds of Chiswick House in West London was captured both on audio and video for posterity. A selection of tracks came out on CD in 2000 as The Complete Strawbs, and now in 2002, comes the DVD release, with a striking cover designed by Rod Green.

By popular request, "Blue Angel" has been included on the DVD as a bonus track, and Dave has produced a special item in which he talks about the concert. There's also a sneak preview of the Strawbs' next DVD on Witchwood Media - a full length concert in Tokyo by the "Ghosts"-era band, first recorded and transmitted in Japan in 1975.
