If you have one, it'll be worth a small fortune on eBay...

BB IN ELECTRO FUNK VIDEOS(!)

Berkshire Bedlam featured in a video made by Genius Productions for Reading based electro-funk band Saloon. Called 'The Good Life', the video featured footage shot at the Banbury Canalside Festival and adapted to fit the dreamy techno track.
