GiGinJapan Artwork of Japanese CDs (mostly) Linda Ronstadt / London 1976 Rebroadcast 2021 / 1DVDR / Uxbridge
Linda Ronstadt in 1976 entered the climax at once with the astronomical hit of “GREATEST HITS”. The symbolic Pro Shot has been greatly upgraded and is now available.
The symbolic video was shot at “November 13, 1976 London performance”. This is a multi-camera pro shot when he appeared on the prestigious BBC’s famous program “The Old Gray Whistle Test”. There are only famous programs, and this video is a big classic that has been a staple for a long time. Along with “OFFENBACH 1976” of the famous program “Rockpalast”, it has reigned as the two major peaks of 1976. While this work is a familiar image, the quality is the highest peak (significantly) update master in the unexperienced zone. It is a digital rebroadcast version released on “November 5, 2021”, which is the 45th anniversary of the broadcast.
The quality is very beautiful … no, the ultimate. Only for digital broadcasting and digital recording, it has been transferred from the station master to the DVD without deterioration, and the gloss of each hair and the unevenness of the skin hidden by the foundation are super clear. Although the on-site lighting and the youthful appearance of Linda are in the 70’s, the image quality itself is at a level that is convincing even if it is said that it was taken yesterday. The best so far has been the BBC’s spill master (the one with the work counter displayed), but it’s not a comparison. It’s amazing how much it will change once you go through analog.
The ultimate master quality is drawn by Linda, who is fat as a singer and draws in the heyday of the wind. First, let’s check the position of the show from the schedule at that time.
・ March 17 + May 14: North America # 1 (2 performances)
・ July 1st-August 8th: North America # 2a (7 performances)
“August 9” HASTEN DOWN THE WIND “released”
・ August 12-September 16: North America # 2b (13 performances)
・ November 3: Universal City performance
・ November 10-13: UK (3 performances) ← ★ Coco ★
・ November 16-24: Europe (4 performances) ← * OFFENBACH 1976
・ November 29th + 30th: North America # 3a (2 performances)
“December 1,” GREATEST HITS “released”
・ December 4-19: North America # 3b (6 performances)
This is Linda Ronstadt in 1976. Although it was a stage in North America, a European tour was also held just before the release of “GREATEST HITS”. The appearance of “The Old Gray Whistle Test” in this work was the third performance in the UK edition that marked the beginning. As mentioned above, there was another apex video “OFFENBACH 1976” in 1976, but that was “recorded on November 16th”. In other words, there is also a sister video of only “3 days ago (1 before)”. Finally, let’s organize the contents of the set.
● Hasten Down the Wind (7 songs)
・ Lose Again / That’ll Be the Day / Love Has No Pride / Crazy / The Tattler / Lo Siento Mi Vida / Hasten Down the Wind
● Others (6 songs)
Don’t Cry Now: Silver Threads and Golden Needles
・ Bad you: Willin’/ It Doesn’t Matter Anymore / When Will I Be Loved?
・ Prisoner in Disguise: Love Is A Rose / Tracks of My Tears
…… And it looks like this. Roughly speaking, it is very similar to the first half of “OFFENBACH 1976”. A selection of new songs from “HASTEN DOWN THE WIND” and famous songs from the 70’s, with half of the repertoire up to that point.
Although you know the contents only in the historical large classic video, it looks completely different when you watch it with master quality. It’s a super beautiful image as if Linda, who was just 30 years old, was on the monitor. The best quality board of the best images of the best times. Please add this one, which is nothing but a must-see, to your collection.
★ Multi-camera pro shot of “November 13, 1976 The Old Gray Whistle Test”. It is a large classic video that has been a staple for a long time, but this work is the highest peak (significantly) update master. This is a digital rebroadcast version released on “November 5, 2021”, which is the 45th anniversary of the broadcast. The quality is exactly “ultimate”. The gloss of each hair and the unevenness of the skin hidden by the foundation are super clear. Although the on-site lighting and the youthful appearance of Linda are in the 70’s, it is safe to say that the image quality itself was taken yesterday. It is a must-have and must-see work that makes familiar images look completely different.
