I just bought this one from tradera. Ive never seen it before anywhere..Is it rare or do you guys have it already? I bought it for 375 sek, trying to find out if ts worth all that money. By the way, its not the version that end with the video of “Silver Blue”, its a DVD with a lot of backstage footage etc etc.

It’s probably rare, as it is a bootleg. 375 SEK is most likely a huge rip-off.

I think saw that one on the Spanish TV “La 2” once, many years ago. I don’t think National Televisions are allowed to broadcast bootlegs.

It’s called “Sweden Live” and it’s Roxette’s first ever video release, if I’m not mistaken, for what he says. And it was recorded in Norrköping 1988.

There is a huge difference between broadcasting a show and releasing it on DVD. The show is, like mentioned, called “Roxette - Sweden Live!” and was released on VHS in Sweden, South Africa and Japan, it was also released on LaserDisc in Japan 1988.
The DVD is a bootleg.

It’s one of my favourite shows, I love to hear Nev and Surrender live! I payed 20 Euros for my DVD but I am willing to buy the original tape if anybody has it... usually I don’t buy bootlegs but seen as it’s very hard to find the original what could I do??? The DVD I have has no cover or anything but the quality is great ’cos it’s a rip from the Laserdisc.
