<\/a>\n\t\t\t Hi, This is Sam from Black Tape For A Blue Girl — With 5 days to go on the Ashes in the brittle air crowdfunding campaign, we're 68% funded. 145 people have joined together to pledge $6172 towards the $9000 goal of creating an expanded 2CD & clear-vinyl LP edition! The remastered 11-track album sounds fabulous. Pledge at Kickstarter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

In 1989 I made a video for "is it love that dare not be? \/ ashes in the brittle air." It never was shown anywhere, and nobody has seen it in the last 28 years. I digitized it and posted on youTube<\/a>. <\/p>\nIs it love that dare not be? \/ ashes video history\n

Another piece of history from the archives! I had such a warm sweet feeling watching this video the other day, the first time in 28+ years. My college friends Kathryn (dancing) and Dimitri (her mostly immobile partner) swept across my monitor recreating the rolls they’ve played in my mind for the last three decades — for all of eternity. And me the viewer, knowing every frame by heart yet watching like it was the first time, excited for what would come next.<\/p>\n

My patrons provided the funds to cover the cost to transfer some of my old 3\/4-inch (U-matic) videos. This was the first clip the guy at the lab sent me; perfect timing.<\/p>\n

From what I recall, I shot & edited this two-song video after the release of Ashes in the brittle air. The video had technical issues I wanted to fix back in the day, but couldn't because I didn't have good enough equipment. I never was sure about showing this piece. I've fixed those problems, at last!<\/p>\n

Back in those days it would have been difficult for most fans to see this video, anyway, as we didn’t have the internet. Fortunately we do now! Everyone can enjoy the “is it love that dare not be? \/ ashes in the brittle air” video at youTube<\/a><\/p>\n

Support the expanded edition of Ashes in the brittle air at Kickstarter <\/a>. A download is a $5 donation, clear vinyl LP is $30, CD is $20. Everyone gets the 21 bonus tracks. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
