CONCERT FOR BANGLADESH

[GazzaBTFC]

A deluxe edition of this with double CD and Double DVD is available 24th October 2005 (I put the year in as I'm sure it'll be put back...EMI being run by a bunch of tossers).

 

Included in the extra features are

 

(on the DVD)

Rehearsal of "If Not For You" - sang by Geroge and Dylan

Rehearsal of "Jumpin' Jack Flash" - sang by Ringo (it was later performed by Edgar Winter (I think - been so long since I've played it).

A couple of Dylan performances that were not included in the original film due to copyright

and....wait for it Zealster, you'll love this....

 

An interview with Bob Geldof...What the [****!!****]!!! Was he there? [****!!****] no, so why doesn't go [****!!****] off.

[Electric ~soul~]

Leon Russell, I think.

 

Geldof's a [****!!****]. I'll skip that bit.

 

Excellent news, though. Been waiting for a DVD of this for ages. Only ever seen grainy footage of While My Guitar Gently Weeps from the Beeb's excellent Rock & Roll Years series.

[GazzaBTFC]

I thought you would be happy. Can't wait to view the rehersal footage.

 

And first week in December the remastered DVD of Let It Be with extra footage of the Beatles rehersing for the Rooftop concert, a BBC interview with Jl and Yoko, the full rooftop concert, loads of extra footage of them running through some rock and roll songs and old Beatles songs that has only been previously seen the light of day on audio vinal or CD. I think I read that there is about an hour of performance footage that hasn't been seen.

[Electric ~soul~]

Excellent.

 

I've got an old bootlegged video of Let It Be at home, but it will be great to get a proper copy.

 

Actually, it's about time I updated all my Beatles films onto DVD really.

What exactly did this gig do for Bangladesh ?

[GazzaBTFC]

I wonder what the extra footage will show though...

 

That they were still a band or a band breaking up. There is some school of thought that even when they were on their last legs as a group that they were still a band in the true sense. er, if you know what I mean. Macca on occasions, still thought they could carry on. It'll be good to see if the new film endorses this.

Who's that in the avatar, Gertch?

[Electric ~soul~]

Mrs Thorns.

[gertcha EFM]

I've had to remove it.

 

That is two threats to have my head kicked in by crazed (ex)boyfriends in two weeks.

[The Lyrical Tarantula]

Just F*ck off, the both of you!

[Laz]

I suspected as much.

[YELLOW]

What's up with Thornsy then?

It made them realise that despite living in poverty it was better than having to listen to them [****!!****]'s all the time!
So it wasn't all bad!
