Mende are you saying that all this time you have had a video of the 1973 PBS "Made in Chicago"? if so prove it by making and displaying a still showing the alleged "pancho type shirt with medallion" or were you referring to the excellent audio only CD Quote:
Actually I thought it had been regrettably determined long ago that that concert only exists as the audio CD I think there are several postings about that conclusion here is one such from the earlier thread at http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?p=154492 Quote:

I see what I have done, once I posted, it took me back to page 1, I did not realise there are 2 pages. Time to walk the dog.

(The DVD does include Gord's band intros followed by nice interviews with all the band members (Pee Wee, Rick, Terry and Barry) Whisper My Name and the insert notes that ""On the TV" became "On the High Seas"". The final song (CRT) is ultra truncated as it runs rather less than 3 minutes My other complaint is that the DVB producers (Mainstreet Music Productions) whose other offerings seem to be only similar concerts by Dire Straits Eric Clapton and Bob Dylan were evidently unable to locate a better copy of the recording to digitise, so perhaps the original Chicago tapes were too badly flawed but if that were the case surely that fact would have been known and admitted when the program was first broadcast . Also I would have thought that any DVD authoring outfit worth its salt could have/should have edited the colour to correct the over saturation of red or least printed a suitably apologetic note on the DVD insert. As it is I am personally am not too distracted by Gordon having red tinged hair. |

Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos
Have just received my DVD of Gordon Lightfoot/Troubadour Live. It is great, seeing the man at the height of his powers. The song list is:
Cotton Jenny, The wreck OTEF, Endless Wire, Summertime Dream, Don Quixote, IYCRMM, Ghost of Cape Horn (With Whistling, Gord trying to sound like a tin whistle, his words) Beautiful, Hangdog Hotel Room, Sundown, EMR, Whisper My Name, On The TV, (You old sweats will know this is On The High Seas.) but Gord announces it as On The TV. Words which are in the song as he sings it at that time. Old Dan's Record and CRT. Which the director cut as the slow part is about to begin. Some interesting words from the band. With Pee Wee Charles. Not Mike H. Worth every penny of £9.99 of my British loot. |
Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos

|
Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos
Michael joined the tour in January 1981... http://www.lightfoot.ca/alblist.htm
SHADOWS was 1982 - Michael was on that album. SALUTE was 1983... |
Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos

Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos
I was at Mike Heffernan's first concert with the band at the old Mill Run Theater, Chicago in 1981. It was in the round with a rotating stage.

Whilst I would ideally have displayed the embedded video here I am still unable to do so but perhaps the Charismatic Moderator can try (since the problem of corfid misbehaving arose she has somehow or other managed to display three of her YouTube videos from Hamilton in the thread at http://www.corfid.com/vbb/showthread.php?t=27365 But for now here is the link to the complete 58 minute's worth of Soundstage 1979 video (22 views so far) https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oVaf0G56-l8 here is the basic share link which does not display http://youtu.be/oVaf0G56-l8 and here is the HTML embed link which also does not work (probably because as it says at the bottom of the thread "HTML code is Off" <iframe width="560" height="315" src="//www.youtube.com/embed/oVaf0G56-l8" frameborder="0" allowfullscreen></iframe> and here again is the DVD artwork showing the full 15 track content (as helpfully listed below or above by the man from the Gymnasium http://johnfowles.org.uk/LIGHTFOOT/i...stage_1979.jpg the complete show featured those 15 songs plus the band members talking missing on youtube are videos of these 6 Endless Wire Don Quixote Ghosts Of Cape Horn ( the full video the file on YouTube is inexplicably the audio only most bizarre!!) Beautiful Whisper My Name the albeit truncated Canadian Railroad Trilogy plus the band members talking Enjoy it while it is up there |

Re: 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos
Thanks a bunch Tony but how come you were able to get this YouTube video to display properly when my efforts manifestly failed??
even stranger is the text of an email I received at 2:57 saying and I quote Dear johnfowles, T.G. has just replied to a thread you have subscribed to entitled - 1979-Chicago Soundstage videos - in the General Discussion forum of Gordon Lightfoot Forums. This thread is located at: http://www.corfid.com/vbb//showthrea...8&goto=newpost Here is the message that has just been posted: *************** Raw video: Gordon Lightfoot & Carly Rae Jepsen on red carpet at SOCAN Awards - YouTube *************** which is patently referring to an entirely different thread and posting by TG Is this forum screwed up or what?? |
