Devotional is a beautiful film, and a wonder to experience even if you were stuck in the very last row at the very top of the concert hall for the only Devotional tour performance you had a chance to see. The laser disc is particularly stunning due to it's inclusion of Behind The Wheel, Mercy In You, Everything Counts, and an incomparable performance of Fly On The Windscreen. The laser disc was only released in the US.
