If you ever get it copied to DVD I want to buy one! There's a link to contact The National Archives. They might be interested - or suggest where else to go. There are some smart people on this website - maybe they'll know how to do it! True Blue Coventry Kid ![]() |

So, while the copyright holder (the Edward Kennedy "Duke" Ellington estate) probably would not be perturbed about a single copy in a single ownership, it would not be pleased about sales/rentals of the proceedings without remuneration to the estate. Fact is, folks, this tape constitutes intellectual property, and that remains within the purview of the copyright holder.
Now, I am not saying DON'T DO IT, but I recommend that you not do it. All things considered though, I would love a copy of what I saw that evening, but I know I could not afford the quite legitimate asking price of the Ellington estate. Also, please understand that the Ellington estate probably holds a copy of the video, and has elected not to release it thus far.

Interesting concert - religious themes as you would expect, but some good jazz too! Would be worth a visit! True Blue Coventry Kid ![]() |
