I had a happy surprise when I walked into a local independent video rental
shop (they've got films that Blockbuster/Lackluster would not even
consider) and found a DVD copy of the Cabs "Double Vision presents: Cabaret
Voltaire".  If you've never seen it then you should.  It was originally
released in 1982 and it was so good to be see the old lo-fi, cut & paste
esthetic of these videos.  Really quite tired of the 80s nostalgia re-do
going on right now that tries to boil down all of the sounds going of that
decade to the Cure, Gang of Four, and Joy Division (as much as I like the
latter two).
Reminds you that some of the best music of the era was and still is
difficult for most to listen to.
