I've watched that one a few times, great video, love the plummy commentary too. Especially the, "left of the tree, right of the tree, through the tree" bit

Great old footage DJ, thanks for posting.
The Commentator has that 'calling the Cricket for the BBC' sort of tone.
Referring to Ake Johnson as "Yamahas new boy" certainly dates it.

Note to self: begin to build library of VMX discs.
