Gizmo recordings

Hello there :)
My first post here is to ask if someone knows of any Gizmo era recordings. I'm dying to listen to some of the stuff, especially Darkness played live, and watch Stewart on that almost Klark Kent second coming impersonation: playing guitar, green clad, gloves on... I've only seen a pic of that.
Can anyone help me out? Thanks.

I will probably make you happy; I have transfered some of my recordings (most of the Gizmo tour was filmed by me or Eugenio) into digital format to be uploaded on youtube; I will ask to Stewart the permission to show them publicly.

There are four Gizmo songs that have been released, although none of the Police or Klark Kent songs, sadly.

The Stewart Copeland anthology CD has Big Drum Tribe.

There are three Gizmo songs released on the Modern Drummer Festival 2006 DVD, Louis, Wop, and Koteja.

Koteja from The Rhythmatist? Is it a different version or something?

It is a live version of the song from the Rhythmatist with a different sound.

The main problems with the Modern Drummer 2006 DVD are that it leaves out what I thought was the best performance from the show (Darkness) and Vittorio Cosma, a key part of the Gizmo line-up, did not perform at that gig. I hope we get a proper tour of the "real deal" Gizmo as Vittorio put it when we met him at the Ben Hur Live world premiere in London.

Yes, I'd love to see what they did with Darkness as well, and Gizmo without Vittorio doesn't make too much sense to me :)

But Vittorio is actually on that dvd now that I remember.

I had forgotten about another available Gizmo recording, right here at sc.net, a video performance of of "I know too much."
