Any idea if they have included the Life On The Road recorded at Golders Green at the same time as Ain't Their Fight and shown on OGWT but left it off the listing above. Bit of a glaring omission if not included.

I believe that's being looked into, but the quality of available sources for LOTR don't quite live up to expectations. The BBC archives are being rummaged through again, but it seems a bit of a long shot. Fingers crossed.
Boldly going.......

That;s a pity, to my eyes the quality of the footage on youtube of it is perfectly acceptable and certainly better than not including it at all.

I read on Facebook that yes, LOTR (not Lord of the Rings) is included but they just forgot to include it in the list

I watched New Horizons last night with the family, it was an emotional experience, I also sent a copy to Noel, Phils son, he felt the same.

Incredible footage, as usual they have done an incredible job

You are all in for a treat, a superb collection and it is lovely to see the bands output treated with respect

...it would be great to see/ hear video footage of  " the Welsh Connection " from the ' 76 farewell concerts if it exists ( i guess they didn't do " Something's Happening " on that run )  +  "Spunk Rock"   ...anyhow looking forward to the release! ...+ hope everyones having a beautiful summer all things considered - 💟☮️ ...

Of course it exists! Don't you know this 1976 concert which was available on VHS and DVD?

No "Something's Happening" or "Spunk Rock" there though...

...yes, i meant the song " the Welsh Connection " ...i guess i can see one reason they might have left it out of the '76 roundhouse farewell movie as it's not really a break up song ...anyhow i just got my copy today in the mail... watching the ' 73 new horizon documentary part to start - peace ☮️ ...

I really can’t wait to prove to two friends that I was right.

I really can't wait until mine is delivered - perhaps I should move to the States - it seems that delivery is quicker over there
