A Note about PAL VHS videos
Presently, Miss Bassey's concert videotapes are only available in PAL VHS format. PAL VHS videotapes CANNOT
be played on standard VCRs in territories that utilize NTSC VHS format, which include the United
States of America, Canada, Mexico, the Carribean Islands, Central America and Japan. Accordingly, if you live in
a territory that utilizes the NTSC video format, you will have to take the PAL videotape to your local video/photo-finishing
shop and get a NTSC dub in order to view the tape. A PAL video in a NTSC VCR will give you lots of snow and a high
pitched squeak but no Shirley.
