The Long Ryders DVD - simply the hottest yet coolest DVD you will ever see of the best American band of the mid-1980s. These are the guys who went Looking For Lewis & Clark and in doing so founded Alt-country and helpe... more »d create Americana. This is the ORIGINAL LINEUP performing seventeen songs live at their 2004 London show at their old haunt, Dingwalls, plus five extra songs featuring three clips of never before seen footage from their April 1985 show at The Gallery in Manchester and two previously unseen videos from A&M Studios in Hollywood from back in their heyday. This is hip, pretty baby...an energetic punk rhythm section meeting a Byrds guitar attack. There is a reason why the Long Ryders gave REM a run for their money and why, in Europe, they were second only to the Smiths in the hipness sweepstakes. Tracks:
