Your best bet for finding an original copy is on ebay. Watch out, because I've seen sellers trying to auction off a DVD version- The video was NEVER released on DVD, only on VHS.

The VHS auction price varies... sometimes it goes for $30 or more, and sometimes it goes for around $10-15, depending on who sees it. If you see it for under $20, it is a bargain!

It is a very good video, well done, with a ton of personal touches and of course great music. I sure do miss those "music movies", they don't seem to make many of them anymore.

Good luck with your search!

It was released on the Laser Disc format as well

Yeah, that's right. I forgot about the laser disc version. Probably a good deal, because you should get a better quality soundtrack on the LD vs. VHS. I suppose most of the DVD copies floating around are bootlegs straight from LD.

Personally,  I was disappointed with how little music was on the videotape.  I bought the VHS hoping to see/hear extended versions of live songs and U2/Dylan/Gabriel videos,  but "Rocky World" seems more of a Lanois profile than a music video.  Not that there's anything WRONG with that,  but I was hoping for something different. I would STILL recommend getting the video,  but it's not something one would play over and over just for the tunes.

It would be great to have a DVD of "Rocky World" with bonus features (i.e. more music) as well as the regular footage.
