MVD Audio have several titles coming out later this year.

Jon Anderson - The Mother's Day Concert - In 1996 Jon Anderson and a group of musicians took to the stage in a beautiful Californian winery to perform a unique set of YES and Vangelis, and solo songs. Jons recollections of the show form the basis of his liner notes, and are accompanied by colour pictures. The show wasnt recorded officially, but thanks to hours of tireless investigative work, recordings were found in private hands. This recording has been re-mastered and the sound quality is the best example of this recording. The quality of this recording can be compared to FM broadcasts.

Bill Bruford Earthworks - Video Anthology Volume 2: 1990s - This 85 minute DVD is the 2nd in a 2-volume anthology of previously unreleased concert footage of Bill Bruford?s Earthworks, one of the longest lived and most original jazz quartets around today. It chronicles the band?s progress through the 1990s from its electronic start to its acoustic renaissance. The group was originated as a vehicle for Bruford?s unusual and innovative use of electronic percussion, and did much to challenge perceptions about what a drummer should, or should not do in the jazz medium. Filmed in Germany, Japan and Belgium in 1991 and 1999.
