Just picked up the SD Blu-Ray from Best Buy . . . who had to retrieve it from the stock room for me after i was told that if it isn't on the shelf, they don't have it. My showing them it listed as 'in stock' on their website from my phone allowed me to spend money there. No wonder they're struggling. . .
The booklet is zero insight and rife with errors, including citing Bobby as playing the sax on Waiting on a Friend. Is their no quality control or review of this crap?
The tattooed naked girl begins the disc in all of her natural glory. Greatly edited backstage scenes that many of us know follow. We don't get Keith's coked plea for rehearsal nor any sheep. A bit of the ping pong game and the tuning room are included (no jamming with Thorogood - probably couldn't get rid of the distortion) and the line up in the hallway before taking the stage is largely intact.
I don't remember every frame from the bootleg, but it's seemingly the entire show as broadcast - including, for what it's worth, the between song comment about a Turkish taxi drivers jock strap and feedback before Imagination.
Time is on My Side contains the Still Life overdubbed vocals as well as some dubbed vocals for Miss You that was broadcast on KBFH. Intact backing vocals seem mixed down, but overall the surround sound is FANTASTIC. Great sounding and clear guitars, Bill's bass is thumping - it's better than I'd hoped.
Since its standard definition, don't expect HD quality - some of the colors run,etc. You'll despise the color green after viewing, but again it's obviously the best quality video ever and it's great, despite the familiarity of Hampton, to have it in this quality.
