Sunset to Release Videos of Robert Gordon, Tommy Conwell and Reach Around Rodeo Clowns on DVD and as Video Downloads
Sunset Home Visual Entertainment (SHE) will allow Amazon's Unbox to release a download-to-burn version of five (5) new Reach Around Rodeo Clowns videos, a Tommy Conwell live performance from 1996 and a rare Robert Gordon live concert - all are due out starting late February. The video downloads will be released on the same days as the official DVD releases.
(Billboard Publicity Wire) February 3, 2008 -- Starting February 19th, the Reach Around Rodeo Clowns will begin to release brand new home video titles from the band's archives. Sunset Home Visual Entertainment (SHE) is releasing these home videos in consecutive weeks. Robert Gordon and Tommy Conwell will have live concerts from the Chameleon Club, recorded in 1996, hitting stores in early March.
Executive Producer Don Lichterman says his company will release a Reach Around Rodeo Clowns live show from CBGB, the world famous Greenwich Village rock club that closed its doors last year. The company will then release live shows of the band from the Beehive Club and The Chameleon Club. Quentin Jones, the producer on these projects and the Clowns band leader says to "expect more videos this year" from the Lanark Records vault. These offerings are coming off the heels of the success of The Clown Remains The Same that was released by SHE as a Video Download last year. Jones says "after getting a ton of requests" for the Clown Remains The Same to be released on DVD, "Don (Lichterman) and everyone at Sunset made that available too on DVD."
SHE is releasing the home video titles on DVD at retail stores like Amazon and Target, and they will release the download-to-burn version of all the titles priced at $9.99. The "Burn to DVD" video will also have the same bonus features offered on the official DVD version. A "Burn to DVD" movie, as Amazon Unbox and Apple refer to it, is a movie that is legally downloaded, can be burned to a blank DVD and then viewed on a DVD player. In September of last year, Amazon announced the download movie service called Amazon Unbox and Apple announced that it would be adding videos and movies to the iTunes store. EZTakes and CinemaNow are two other companies that offer a movie download service similar to that of Amazon's Unbox.
