That is the name of a Documentary on the Great West Indies Teams that during the 1970's and 1980's reigned supreme in the Cricket World .

This Documentary was first shown at the London Film Festival , in October 2010. It includes comments by Clive Lloyd , and Sir Vivian Richards . Several famous Caribbean Music Artists are
also featured in the Documentary .

Hopefully , Readers of this Website , who live in London , and saw this Documentary , will let
us know their views on the Documentary . It is my understanding that the DVDS of this Documentary are going to be on sale from the 6th. of June 2011 .

No unfortunately , I havent seen it . I have no idea whether here in West Palm Beach , I can see it . I am currently trying to get A. G, MOYES " WITH THE WEST INDIES 1960-1961 . Obviously this includes the first Tied Test Match , but it is tough getting a copy to buy .

BTW , on the 3 Forums that I write on , I have asked anyone in London who are on these Websites , to gave us their views on " FIRE IN BABYLON " . So far I havent heard anything .
Like you , I am going to get the DVD .
