You're in luck.  An original video is available RIGHT NOW on EBay. 
Here's the link:


and here's the description:

Dance Craze
Chrysalis CVHS 5022
 
This is an original (NOT a copy) of the 1988 video ‘Dance Craze’.

 Famous concert footage of ‘The best of British ska…..LIVE’.  27
tracks in total. Featuring:

The Specials – Nite Klub 
Madness – The Prince 
Bad Manners – Ne Ne Na Na Na Na Nu Nu 
The Bodysnatchers –007 
The Selecter – 3 Minute hero 
The Beat – Ranking Full Stop 
The Beat – Bigshot 
The Specials – Concrete Jungle 
Madness – Swan Lake 
Madness – Razor Blade Alley 
The Selecter – Missing Words 
The Bodysnatchers – Let’s do rocksteady 
Bad Manners – Lip up fatty 
Madness – Madness 
The Specials – Too much too young 
The Selecter – On my radio 
The Bodysnatchers – Easy life 
The Beat – Rough Rider 
The Specials – Man at C&A 
Bad Manners – Inner London Violence 
Madness – Night Boat To Cairo 
The Beat – Twist and crawl 
Bad Manners – Wooley Bully 
The Selecter -Too much pressure 
The Beat – Mirror in the bathroom 
Madness – One step beyond 
The Specials – Nite Klub (reprise) 
 

Cassette has slight decolourisation of the label otherwise cover  is
EXCELLENT.

 

Sleeve has one small (3mm) split on the rear bottom left-hand corner
otherwise it is EXCELLENT.

This tape is in PAL format . Winner pays postage.



Act fast...Happy bidding.  

If EBay doesn't work out, check out blackstar at:

http://www.blackstar.co.uk/video/item/7000000003134

Their site says that "Dance Craze" had been "Deleted" (whatever that
means) since 1993.  However, they offer a "Video Hunt" service that
may well be able to track down a copy for you if EBay doesn't pan out
(they charge for the Video Hunt only if they find one for you).

That was exciting - my first auction - Lost it in 16 seconds :(

GBP 34,00 09-jun-02 17:07:02 CEST  << winner
GBP 33,00 09-jun-02 17:06:46 CEST  << Me :(

Anyway. £34 is a bit much when the tape is not THAT rare and the
videohunt price is £17..
I will now try the videohunt

Good luck.  The fact that the price was so high on EBay may mean the
video is a bit harder to come by than you suppose.  If videohunt
doesn't pan out, let me know through a follow-up remark here, and I'll
see if I can do a videohunt of my own.
