Well,

Classic Pictures are pleased to announce the release of “Willie
& The Poor Boys” for the first time EVER on DVD!
This
band in concert was filmed in a 50’s style Rock ‘n’ Roll show at the
Fulham Town Hall, London, UK in 1985 and was a concept based on an original
idea by Bill Wyman which continued the charity fundraising for the Ronnie
Lane Appeal for A.R.M.S. (Action for Research into Multiple
Sclerosis) that began with series of concert in 1983.
“The
one thing that we found with the video shoot was that everyone went in there
with great spirits and really went out to have a good time.” – said
Bill Wyman during ‘The Making Of’
This
film is a real “Gem” – unearthed by Classic Pictures from Bill Wyman’s
personal vault and will be a “Must Have” for any collector of Classic
Rock.
Wyman
added
- “The word that seemed to permeate the surroundings on the shoot for 2 days
was fun…everyone wanted to have fun”
