The Smiths - Asleep video

Rare US video for Asleep. I decided to edit the summary as many people question the validity of this video. I did not make it. I took it, like many other rarish clips posted from a Smiths video compilation, which was one of a series which were bought in the late 80s and early 90s. I still have the videos now and transferred some material from video to dvd and youtube. The original clips were all on vhs. All these, about 25 in all featuring Morrissey or Smiths came from a very reliable source at that time and usually featured a live performance bootleg video and several tv clips eg cleavage sisters clip. In those days, taping and videoing was pretty hard work and a lot of effort went into them. All I can tell you is that this video is on one of the Smiths VHS tapes and is listed as "Rare US video - Asleep". If anyone could provide more info on it I'd be happy to hear it. There are two other videos on one of the VHS cassettes for Shoplifters and something else that appear to be created for a US TV programme as there are credits at the end. I've not posted them as the quality is very poor. I just thought I'd share this with folk so don't shoot the messenger... I think its pretty good btw....you folk in the digital age dont know how good you got it!
