This long-awaited DVD was finally released on 30th August 2004. It features a full-length film of Dexys live appearance at the Liverpool Royal Court on 7th November 2003. Extra features include interviews with fans, Pete Williams, Mick Talbot and Lucy Morgan. In 2006 this video received a re-release in a different sleeve with slightly misleading sleeve artwork featuring pictures dating from the Too Rye Ay period:

2. "The Bridge" The Live Performance

Universal Music Group

Released - 2006

Tack listing - 1. Old 2. All In All (This One Last Wild Waltz) 3. Let's Make This Precious 4. Until I Believe In My Soul 5. Jackie Wilson Said 6. Respect 7. Come On Eileen 8. Kevin Rowland's Band 9. The Celtic Soul Brothers

A DVD release for the live concert footage originally released on video in the 1980s. Unfortunately, despite the extra capacity of the format, there are no extra songs. The concert footage being exactly the same as on the original video. On the plus side the soundtrack is a digital audio one, that can be listened to without picures, and also available in 5.1 surround sound although I prefer the plain old stereo option. There is a standard select track menu and a so-called 'extra feature' called 'Jukebox' which turns out to be a different kind of select track menu. The sleeve and booklet artwork is pretty good being based on the original tour programme. The well-written booklet notes are by Daryl Easlea. Not a bad package really but, rather obviously, could have been better.
