Vessel is the first VHS released by Björk on September 5, 1994. It contains a live performance by Björk on the Debut Tour, recorded live at the The Royalty Theatre in London in May 1994. The concert is interspersed by short interviews with Björk on the streets of London, including her singing an improvisation to the sound of a car alarm and her thoughts on moving from Reykjavík to London. The track "Atlantic" is a live version of a B-side that was released only on the cassette single of "Human Behaviour" and Japanese pressings of Debut. The short improvisation sung by Björk and her tour band at the start of the DVD is "Gail Biffen", an early (unreleased) version of the track "I Miss You". The 1994 VHS release was re-released on DVD on January 13, 2003. The video was also released on LaserDisc in Japan on May 10th, 1994, a US release was announced but later canceled.
