Perry Blake, "The Crying Room"

A documentary on the making of the album

"The Crying Room"

Featuring; Perry Blake, Marco Sabiu, Toby Pitman and Glenn Garrett

Especially dedicated to his fans, this informal documentary features some exclusive footage of Perry at home performing a new song not included on the album. There are not only interviews with Perry, but Marco, Toby and Glenn, and gives a real insight into the atmosphere during the recording of the album in Perry's house, studio and even the local pubs. We have even included footage of the Hunchback of San Francisco from a live concert in Dublin in December. The result is a reflection of the unique environment of Perry's surroundings and life in Ireland that inspires his song-writing genius. If you are a Perry Blake fan, this intimate experience with Perry is not to be missed!

Tracks: The Making of the Crying Room, Hunchback of San Francisco live at the Sugar Club, Perry at home, Song for George. Extras: Garlic and Polonecks, The Marco and Toby Channel, Discography and Biography.

Release: The full DVD video was released on the 18th May at the Timpano festival in Famalicao, Portugal where Perry played live. It is now available to order from Perry's web site shop. Visit Perry's web site at www.perryblake.com. A half-hour edit of some of the highlights will be submitted for broadcast in France, Portugal and other EU countries.

Some working titles of other documentary projects in the preparatory stage:-

The O'Rourkes of Breifne series

A complete series of documentaries of the history of the O'Rourkes, one of Ireland's great families that contributed so much to the colourful and tragic history of Ireland, including the Norman Invasion. The approach to the series will be one of frankness combined with myth-splitting material delivered in a uniquely casual format, and presented by Irish journalist Jim King.

The subjects of the documentaries will cover all aspects from early days using a wide range of period imagery, to the present with interviews and profiles of descendants of the Lords of Breifne. We will post details early in 2006 as the productions come together.

Patrick Sarsfield, Ireland's Rommel

"We fight not for any King or Pope, but for our estates"

A documentary of the life of Patrick Sarsfield, the Jacobite Cavalry Officer and commander during the Jacobite/Williamite wars of the 1690's in Ireland. If he was to achieve such status in today's world he would probably have had a following somewhere between Ché Guevara and Bono. A dashing charismatic 6ft 6 ins Cavalry officer who pulled off some of the remarkable and daring feats of the war, and yet retained some of the best principles of honour. He also managed to empty Ireland of it's fighting classes as they followed him to France in what would become to be known as "The flight of the Wild Geese"

The Compleat Dangler

Not yet another fishing documentary, but an in-depth humorous study of the psychology of fishing. Considering that the hobby of angling causes more marriage breakdowns and general social problems than heroin and coke etc, it is about time that someone examined why someone would spend vast sums of money and time away from home holding a massive rod between their legs on some freezing river bank or rocky shore. It will also carry a historical thread all the way back to Izaak Walton and blame him for the carnage.
