Tracklist


In the book, Anton gives comments on every clip. About his work on Red Guitar:

David saw the Propaganda video on TV & subsequently approached me for this song, his first solo single since leaving the group Japan. I had photographed him a few times in that setting, he was often seen as a
teenage-pinup, poster boy, very striking and introvert appearance. For him to ask me to direct this video was making a statement I think. Anyway, it is again a challenge for me to come up with ideas and I spent a couple of days in Bruxelles in a hotel room to concetrate on that. I found it so difficult to come up with anything worthwhile - I am glad that that part of the process is less of a chore these days. What I came up with was basically
lots of images that have no connection to each other and the main image is based on a photo by Angus McBean. Angus was retired by this time but was a great surrealist and I called him up to get his permission to use the photo
and we ended up with him in the video. He loved it, he was a great man to spend time with but I recall he couldn't believe he was on Top Of The Pops at age 80 and David's voice came out of his open mouth. I did one more video with David the same year and only photographs after that. The little boy in the video I found at the Lycie Frangais in London. Can't remember the name.
