[Ronald Stiebolt]

Geen flauw idee wat dat moet gaan kosten maar op de releasedatum issie van mij!

[Lex v/d Moolen]

Die ga ik ook wel aanschaffen. Het eerste concert dat ik ooit live op TV zag volgens mij.

[Ralph71]

Hopelijk weten ze het geluid flink op te poetsen, zoals bij

- Phil Collins - Serious Hits... Live!
- Queen - Live at Wembley Stadium

Dan zou het echt perfect zijn!

[manon kuik]

Ja, deze is ook van mij. Ik was - weliswaar op tv - ook bij het hele concert aanwezig. Nu gaan vast en zeker de kids van mij er ook van genieten. Dit is GESCHIEDENIS.

[Frits]

Ik kan me die dag nog goed voor de geest halen. Leek toen prachtig weer over de hele wereld! We hadden de deuren wijd open staan en zagen ook in Londen en Philly alleen maar zonovergoten menigten! Dit is 'jeugd'sentiment!...

[rkrijger]

Top performances van U2 en Queen...
Ik heb er nog een bandje van...
Met Sting, Ultravox, Simple Minds...
Ach, wat was dat een fantastische tijd...

[Reinbo]

EIEIEIEIEINDELIJK!!!!!

[Ed Van Seeters]

dat werd tijd zeg heb queen en u2 pas geleden nog gedownload.
maar de kwaliteit was belabberd,kan het straks dus in perfecte kwaliteit zien.

[Philippe]

Prachtig concert dat bij heel wat mensen in het collectief geheugen zal zitten.

En het zou natuurlijk fantastisch zijn als een deel van de opbrengst weer naar de hongerende mensen in Afrika (maar ook de rest van de wereld) gaat. Want wat dat betreft is er in die 20 jaar nauwelijks iets veranderd in de wereld.

Ik zal m'n steentje dan bijdragen, want het concert van Led Zeppelin vind ik legendarisch.

[Roberto van Rooijen]

Geweldig.... misschien heb ik wat over het hoofd gezien , maar weet iemand iets te vertellen over de specs?

[Alexander de Mol]

Geweldig.... misschien heb ik wat over het hoofd gezien , maar weet iemand iets te vertellen over de specs?

Volgens mij is hier nog niets van bekend. Mocht iemand wat tegenkomen, laat dat vooral in deze thread weten...

[Gert Paassen]

En Tina met Mick.
Verdere hoogtepunten Led Zeppelin en The Who.
Gert

[King Eidilleg]

Sorry was al geplaatst..

Wordt dit een integrale release? Of zo 1 waar van iedere artiest 1 nummer te horen zal zijn. In dit laatste geval zou ik hem absoluut niet kopen. Als het integraal is zou ik het wel overwegen. Het is een mooie dwarsdoorsnede van foute 80`s muziek live i.i.g.
Muzikaal was het in mijn ogen niet echt een top-event (ik ben dus geen U2 en Queen-fan, de 2 enige groepen die het live wel leuk deden), maar het is wel leuk om de optredens van David Bowie, Duran Duran en The Power Station weer eens te zien.
Overigens verwacht ik niet veel van de beeldkwaliteit, aangezien het een live-uitzending was en de camerastandpunten niet echt goed geregisseerd waren wat ik me zo herinner.

[Leon van Stijn]

Geweldig! Deze gaat zeker te weten in m'n collectie komen! :P

Led Zeppelin,

Helaas pindakaas, Zep heeft geen toestemming gegeven om hun optreden op de dvd te plaatsen. Het optreden met Phil Collins op drums was namelijk zo belabberd (mede door de jetlag van Phil Collins die per concorde uit Engeland was overgevlogen waar ie eerder had opgetreden) dat ze niet achter een dvd-release konden staan.

It is being billed as “the greatest show on earth”. An estimated global audience of 1.5 billion watched the Live Aid concert, and now a film of the event is expected to fly off the shelves as the biggest-selling music DVD of all time.

But one important component is missing. Led Zeppelin, once the world’s highest-rated rock’n’roll band, have refused to allow their performance to be included in the movie.

The refusal has disappointed Bob Geldof and other organisers of the Band Aid charity, which hopes to sell 8m copies of the DVD and raise as much as £320m for famine relief in Africa. Geldof has been fighting with lawyers for nearly 20 years to get permission from all the stars involved to release the film and stop bootleggers cashing in.

The concert in July 1985 kicked off with Status Quo performing Rocking All Over the World to 70,000 people at London’s Wembley stadium.

A simultaneous concert was watched by 80,000 people in the JFK stadium in Philadelphia, but this will be the first time since then that the footage will be legally available.

Zeppelin’s three surviving members — singer Robert Plant, guitarist Jimmy Page and bassist John Paul Jones — appeared in Philadelphia where they were joined by Phil Collins, the Genesis drummer and solo artist, who had flown from London on Concorde after performing at Wembley.

The band’s original drummer, John Bonham, had died after a heavy drinking session in 1980 on the eve of an American tour, effectively ending the band’s career.

Live Aid was the first attempt at a “reunion”. But concert-goers blamed Collins’s tiredness and poor sound quality on stage for the band’s lacklustre performance. Plant complained about the sound quality and Page perspired freely as the band roared through Rock and Roll, Whole Lotta Love and Stairway to Heaven to win one of the biggest cheers of the day.

Insiders on the DVD project believe Zeppelin’s reputation for fierce management and tight product control is behind the refusal to allow the footage to be included in the film. Zeppelin never released any singles in Britain as part of a clever marketing ploy that saw them sell 50m albums worldwide.

The band, who dabbled with the occult, groupies and drugs, have also refused to be included on compilation records. Jack Black, the American actor, had to beg the band publicly to allow him to use some of their music for his feature film The School of Rock, released in Britain earlier this year.

Another reason for the veto may be the success of Led Zeppelin’s own DVD of performances. Page spent two years editing concerts from the Albert Hall, Earls Court and Knebworth, for a DVD which has sold 2m copies.

One insider on the Live Aid project said: “It is a political thing. They don’t want the legend of Led Zeppelin to be diminished by one below-par performance. Collins was jet-lagged.”

Jill Sinclair, who edited hours of footage from different cameras into 10 hours of film for the Live Aid film, which will be released as a DVD on November 1, said: “Led Zeppelin have done the decent thing because their performance on the day was not great.”

Geldof said: “It is difficult. Every band has three lawyers: a band lawyer, a personal lawyer and a publishing-rights lawyer so it takes a long time to get agreement. But Jimmy Page and Robert Plant have done marvellous things for Band Aid, both on the day of the concert and since.”

Geldof met retailers last week to try to persuade them to forgo their £12 profit margin on the DVD, a feat he accomplished with record stores in 1984 when he rounded up other pop stars to make the single Do They Know It’s Christmas? after watching a television documentary on the Ethiopian famine.

Geldof, former lead singer with the Boomtown Rats punk rock band, thought it would make £100,000 which he could then give to Oxfam. The single went on to sell 7m copies, half of them in Britain where it was the biggest-selling record until Elton John’s Candle in the Wind tribute to Diana, Princess of Wales, which sold 4.8m copies.

Taking personal charge of the distribution of the £5m raised by the single, Geldof visited Ethiopia and realised he needed another £3m to buy trucks to avoid the high transport charges for grain being charged by local lorry drivers. The idea for Band Aid was born.

The line-up included a galaxy of music stars, including Paul McCartney, Bob Dylan, Mick Jagger, David Bowie, the Who, Elton John, U2, Ozzy Osbourne and Madonna.

Part of Dylan’s shambolic performance with Ronnie Wood and Keith Richards of the Rolling Stones has been cut because he appealed for some of the money raised to go towards paying off the mortgages of American farmers.

Live Aid was the biggest-ever rock benefit, raising £51m from donations on the day and £37.5m since.

A spokeswoman for Led Zeppelin’s management said she could not say why the band would not be appearing in the DVD of the world’s biggest rock benefit “but I don’t think it is because they don’t like appearing in compilations”.

Paul Gambaccini, a broadcaster who presented on the day, said: “Some, like Bowie and Queen, seized the opportunity and are remembered for mythical performances; others aren’t.”

Apparently, only two of the three songs performed by Madonna are included in the disc. The song that is left out is the only live rendition of Love Makes The World Go Round, a song written with Patrick Leonard during the Virgin Tour, that was premiered at Live Aid with the band Thompson Twins and later recorded for her True Blue album.

The songs that seem to be included are Holiday and Into the Groove

Ben benieuwd wat er nog meer gaat ontbreken...

Hier ook een leuk artikel van BBC News over waarom Live Aid bijna helemaal niet was opgenomen en wat er allemaal technisch misging en vervolgens opgepoetst moest worden voor de DVD.

jammer dat ze niet alles van Nik Kershaw er op hebben gezet
