Editorial Reviews

TRACK LISTING: DVD ONE: In The Flesh?, The Thin Ice, Another Brick Pt 1, The Happiest Days Of Our Lives, Another Brick Pt 2, Mother, Goodbye Blue Sky, Empty Spaces, What Shall We Do Now?, Young Lust, One Of My Turns, Don't Leave Me Now, Another Brick Pt 3, Goodbye Cruel World. DVD TWO: Hey You, Is There Anybody Out There?, Nobody Home, Vera, Bring The Boys Back Home, Comfortably Numb, The Show Must Go On, In The Flesh, Run Like Hell, Waiting For The Worms, Stop, The Trial, Outside The Wall. The six cameras used provide amazing close-ups, fade-ins and fade-outs, shadowed shots, views from motion arms that sweep in front of the stage, it has it all! Audio is direct soundboard (hardly ever hear the audience, except where the band wanted it heard!) and clear. The history of this recording is a curious one. As you may know, the band had all Earls Court shows filmed in 1980. Roger Waters holds the masters of those recordings in his garage (as he says). How this particular show found its way out is a mystery. As one well-known and respected Floyd collector and historian put it when we sent an advance copy to him: "This really is a 'holy grail' of Floyd collecting. I honestly felt it was like really being there." That about sums it up perfectly.

This review is from: Pink Floyd Live Earls Court London 1980 (DVD)

The Wall live at Earl Court is probably the greatest concert Pink Floyd did together, and the one concert ever true Pink Floyd wants on DVD. Unfortenley we have to seattle for this EXPENSIVE bootleg DVD. Seriously fifty bucks is not worth it. You can watch this whole concert on YouTube, same quality (video and audio) for free. The only reason I got it is because YouTube doesn't work on my computer anymore, and I love this concert. So i'm giving it three stars because it's still a great concert, despite the horriable quality, and like I said before it's the only thing we got to one of the greatest concerts ever. So if you really want to see this concert go on YouTube or wait for that fifty dollar price to drop way down.

God Bless Pink Floyd

This review is from: Pink Floyd Live Earls Court London 1980 (DVD)

This was a very well orchestrated show which was probably supposed to have been included in the "The Wall Movie", however the director was a flake and hurried with out the input from Roger Waters. Even to todays standards this performance was excellent as well as the props and stage hands meeting with quite a set.
My only problem was the quality of the sound which was not in stereo mode. For some reason the internet "Goog Video" has the first half of this same concert with good sound contrary to the DVD.
All in all I would strongly urge any real Floyd fan to see this concert. -John DC
