KenB1 Posted February 7, 2010 Report Share Posted February 7, 2010 (edited) Hi Jamie, I wish I could help with those two but although we covered Belle Vue from time to time I have no copies and I can't remember us eveer going to the Shay. Hopefully others could help. On a more general note I've fsaced fresh technical problems - new VCR/DVD combo won't track-into old VHS tapes. The KM Video trail has also gone cold - I've established that Paul sold his business to his kids and retired to Spain. I'm still trying to track down the next generation but they certainly don't trade under the old name. It's all very frustrating. Rob McCaffery. He certainly hasnt gone to Spain, he is in hertfordshire, but he has not kep any footage other tahn a few world finals and no he wont release them! I have loads of old screen sport stuff and am spending hours and hours copying them onto dvd before the tapes go ka-put Edited February 7, 2010 by KenB1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have loads of old screen sport stuff and am spending hours and hours copying them onto dvd before the tapes go ka-put Thanks Ken for confirming the worst. I got the information from the guy who made the Screen Sport programmes for him (owned the truck & equipment, directed and credited them) . I'm not surprised he ditched the archive. As for those world finals they will be of limited quality. I voiced a couple of finals for him and it was just one camera on the terracing. Looks like you're our best hope Ken. Hmm - got much Rayleigh footage by the way? Rob McCaffery. Edited February 7, 2010 by rmc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wouldn't know - I can only comment on video from 1982 onwards I'm afraid. Rob McCaffery. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedwaycrazy Posted February 8, 2010 Report Share Posted February 8, 2010 Thank you very much anyway Rob. Hi have got quite a lot of old footage that includes the much sought after KM Video stuff, I used to go around to the guys house in Woodford to buy them off him some 25 years ago....how time flies. If anyone wants a copy of my list please send me an email to fletcherh1961@yahoo.co.uk and I can forward a list! Cheers Paul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bradford Ace Posted February 9, 2010 Report Share Posted February 9, 2010 Watching loads of old footage at the mo to get me thru the long winter nights b4 the season starts in a month or so!! Come across a lot of videos from JSD who filmed at Coventry as have a lot of old British Finals, Overseas Finals etc Probably seems like a stupid question but i love the music that is played during the titles and wondered if its an actual song by a recognised artist/band or whether it was just something JSD made up themsevles to accompany their titles. Its an instrumental & cant get it outta my head after watching an old Cov meeting last nite from 97. Would love to hear from any1 in the know!!!

Hmm - got much Rayleigh footage by the way? Rob McCaffery. Funny you should ask, because I have plenty of cine film of Rayleigh v Canterbury, Romford, Hull, Eastbourne etc etc Most is on the Days Gone By dvd's, but the stuff v Eastbourne will be on the next one Vol.11 along with Ellesmere Port Westham , Hackney, the 1980 Grand Prix from Eastbourne and others.

I'll ask Jonathan next time I speak to him, its probably just a piece of Copyright free music that he had. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gee jay Posted October 1, 2014 Report Share Posted October 1, 2014 Does anyone have any information on what happened to this excellent video company? I have a number of their meetings recorded at Mildenhall from 1982 - 1987, and wondered if they were still around as I'd like to obtain some more. I believe Rob McCaffrey who posts on here used to do some commentary work for K M Videos, and they often featured excellent mid meeting interviews with the like of Billy Sanders and Michael Lee. Quality stuff Any info greatly appreciated hi, jan staechmann has just added km videos to his video empire. although i can't seem to access them atm.
