Taking as its focus the story of seminal pop misfits/messiahs Pulp over the course of their journey from the darkest industrial depths of Sheffield, through Margaret Thatcher’s turbulent 80′s to the pinnacle of pop, this is an entirely new premium double DVD disc release.
Made with the full cooperation of the band, Fanfare… tells the band’s story in their own words through specially filmed interviews with members of their classic (and reunion) line up including Jarvis Cocker and Russell Senior – as well as contributions from the likes of Richard Hawley, Moloko’s Mark Brydon and WARP’s Rob Gordon.
‘Fanfare for the Common People’ is a four-hour double disc set presentation and 24-page colour booklet all lovingly created in The Designers Republic.
Disc one contains the 90 minute feature film plus extras including a new sit down with Jarvis and Richard Hawley.
Disc two presents another two hours of extras, including ‘The Lost Tape‘ – a newly discovered Pulp performance from 1985, previously unseen footage of Pulp at Sheffield’s Leadmill in 1991 plus brand new featurettes from The Designers Republic, Moloko’s Mark Brydon, ClockDVA’s Adi Newton, Parrot and Winston (FON/WARP) and Longpigs’ drummer Dee Boyle – as well as the complete and previously unreleased documentary ‘The Beat is the Law Part Two’.
‘The Beat Is The Law – Fanfare For The Common People’ DVD was released by Sheffield Vision on 1st June 2011.
