Studio footage used on The Verve’s video for previously unreleased ‘South Pacific’

The Verve have used contemporary in-studio footage to create a video for the previously unreleased track ‘South Pacific‘, which is a part of the reissue version of their debut album ‘A Storm In Heaven‘.

This and ‘Shoeshine Girl‘ have been added to the 1993 LP which is out on September 9th as a 4-disc super deluxe edition, remastered by Chris Potter with lots more added goodies and an accompanying DVD featuring a 1992 Camden Town Hall concert, the US video for ‘Blue’ and previously unseen footage from New York in October 1992.

The 1995 follow-up ‘A Northern Soul‘ is also newly released as a 3-CD super deluxe edition, again remastered by Chris Potter and again with various added bonuses and a 36-page book.

These two albums were the precursors to 1997’s ‘Urban Hymns‘, a record which started life as a Richard Ashcroft solo album but went on to become one of the UK’s biggest sellers.
