The one and only documentary on the composer, drummer and bandleader Edward Vesala, here in it's entirety, but unfortunately in Finnish and without subtitles.
Written, directed and edited by Markus Viljanen.
The quality is due to it being a second or third generation VHS-rip.
@jeffjazzwraight Funny, I also bought my copy from Emu@Digelius.As to the Stanko quartet, I have also been unable to find any other video material of them. Hopefully some will surface one day.

Thanks Kallepellereino. I actually have the disc. (Purchased from Emu in Digelius Music-Helsinki a few years ago.) It has some live S & F audio on it also. ---- I also just found your post of the trio with Garbarek - Thanks again. I wonder if there is any more video of the mid 80's quartet with Stanko (only found the tv 'First Song' so far) . What a great band. Kind regards. Jeff.

@jeffjazzwraight You can find that tour-edit on my profile as well, and it has subtitles in English.

Terrific. Some of this footage was edited into the 20 minute VCD that was a 'giveaway' on the S & F 1994 tour. Mainly the biographical section. This gives more insight into Edwards working methods. The man was a visionary. Thanks so much for posting this.
