Motivation 1981

The production of 3 albums were financed by the sale of ad-spaces on their covers. By raising small amounts of money from a large number of people, Rene was a pioneer in the practise of crowdfunding. This promotional video contains footage of Rene's appearance at the popular Dutch television talkshow, Mies, hosted by Mies Bouwman on November 3rd, 1981, who supported the idea. Because of this program 400 spaces were sold and the album, "Motivation", was successfully released.
