Mark King playing "Dune Tune" on his Alembic S1

This is a nice live performance of Mark King's classic Dune tune, played on his first Alembic Series 1, before he got his two Series 2 with leds. This was broadcast on French TV in 1987, right after the departure of the Gould brothers (guitar & drums) from Level 42.

Just watched this again, thought I would bump it back up! Wish the bass volume was a little louder but there are still some nice shots and he gets a great slapping sound!

At minute 1:15 Mark King's face is priceless. Caption would be dude, did you just farted?

I noticed that too - actually, it sounds like one of the instruments farted! I thought it was just due to it being an old video, maybe introduced during the transfer process at some point, but judging by Mark's facial expression it looks like it could be heard in the TV studio as well!
