I've been playing with the Nottingham Oddfellows anniversary Video....getting rid of black borders, altering colour, contrast, brightness etc.

Obviously you can only work on what you start with but relatively pleased with the results, not least cos I was there and I'm fleetingly on the video :D

Did have a copy of original VHS which I paid my cash to CESC back in the day, but I lent to somebody back in the late 80's never to be seen again. So the orig video is from a DVD copy so not sure if it would be better from the original VHS but if you have a better/clearer version and can get it to me let me know!

Hopefully brought it back to life a little will upload some bits to youtube at some point but have attached a few stills to show before and after.

Tony Clayton asked me to replace Gary Rushbrook, as he could't make it due to personal

commitments, and l can honestly say that l had the most welcoming reception from the

most welcoming people. because that's northern soul. . . the 8th wonder of the world.

Hi ya Tony, long time no see mate! I think I remember that night, no doubt it was the usual mickey taking that we from the Herts/Beds area are known for :-) On the video you can see me and Keb/Gary chatting about records on the stage whilst I'm wearing the very stylish look of black vest over white T, grey Bowies! Not many can carry that look off - I didn't EEEK! I also recall trying to my first cardiac arrest of the night whilst the great Adam was on, sprinting from the floor to the decks to write down the names etc.
