these titles are still available through Bijou
Video
Of note: the early
videos feature some of the most embarrassing music ever heard.
The
music and "tunes" were bad at the time of release, and only grow worse
with age.
Below are some of the "Free with subscription" videos
offered.
Note: these are generally offered to
new subscribers only. Not offered for renewals. We feel this policy
quite rude to those who have supported this magazine over the
years.
