BUCKS FIZZ - MAGICAL CONCERT 1985 DVD
Just months after the horrific coach crash in 1984, Bucks fizz were dealt yet another blow when Jay Aston decided to leave the band. The three remaining members decided they would carry on and find a replacement for Jay. After seeing thousands of girls for the part they finally decided on 21 year old Shelley Preston from Dorset. Shelley had literally weeks to learn an entire show and prepare to tour the UK with the Magical show. As with Previous Bucks Fizz tours, the stage set, lighting and band were more stadium Rock than pop and the show received great reviews. The stage set this time was the inner workings of a cassette player (to tie in with their sponsorship from Sharp Electronics) and provided the perfect backdrop for the new lavish show packed with hits, fan favorites and unexpected surprises.
As with the 83/84 DVD's, the show was filmed on a single camera by the tour crew at the time and is the only known footage of this highly significant moment in the bands 35 year history.
