Video from the Ventures Live in '65 era is on a Japanese import VHS called
"Beloved Invaders" - part tour documentary, part live performance - Mosrites
and Blond Showmans all around. Not as many songs as on the album/disc, but
still a must have. Check EBay

Subject: [SurfGuitar101] Ventures Live In Japan '65
I'm a little late to the game here, but I decided to pick this up, given the
classic status I hear people talking about. On first listen, I am surprised
by the energy and dare I say passion that is evident in the Ventures
playing. Something I don't always hear in their work. The guitar tone is a
bit too hot, almost harsh, though. Is this the Mosrites, or just the
recording technique of the time? Just wondering what others thought of this
album. My favorite so far is "Bulldog". I never understood why so many hyped
up Nokie, but on this particular album he (and the rest of the band) are
smoking.
I understand there is a video of this performance? Anyone see it or know
where to get it?
