Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush on DVD

Yesterday I mentioned the film Here We Go Round the Mulberry Bush, whose director has just died.

A reader tells me it is about to be released on DVD. As I once discussed, the film has a soundtrack featuring both the Spencer Davis Group and Traffic. That is because Steve Winwood was in the process of leaving the former and forming the latter just as it was made.

Anyway, I shall clearly have to buy it. In the mean time, take it away...

So where was Dave? This must have been during one of those intervals when he had split from the band.

David said...

Judy Geeson...and I read the book as a teenager.

Traffic are obviously miming here and David Mason must have played on the original recording.

These days he just appears as the black-hatted bad fairy in documentaries about Steve Winwood.

Did you see that Steve Winwood is playing the Royal Albert Hall in May next year?
