Philip Jap Music Videos

Postby VKRSblameVTR » Thu Feb 01, 2007 9:34 am

Philip Jap recorded a song called "Total Erasure", the promotional video for it was filmed at Portmeirion (in freezing cold conditions) and used Rover ballooons, Mini-moke, Human Chess Game, etc - and made excellent use of the location.
The video for another song, "Death In A Tin Junk", used the Allouette 2 helicopter, plus footage of Philip Jap and one of the band members crashing through the Portmeirion woods in a sort of "Apocalypse Now" setpiece. Both videos were shown as part of a Philip Jap BBC TV Special in 1983.

Does anybody know how to get a hold of this Special? Or know any more about his videos or how long the special aired- let us know thanks!
