GREATEST BOOTLEG DVD's part one

While checking through hard drives for audio files to post on this blog, it was a surprise to realise how many unreleased dvd’s I had acquired. Listing them all made it easier to sort out the best.
As most people that collect audio will also download video/dvd I’ve listed the best I have come across on the net so far. They have been split into lists of twenty, the second part will follow in the future but here is part one, all are well worth your time looking for and downloading. All deserving of an official release:



BOB DYLAN – Eat The Document

Eat the Document is a documentary that captures the madness that ensued during Dylan and The Hawks’ 1966 tour of Europe in which Dylan transformed himself from an acoustic folk singer to a rock ‘n’ roll musician. The tour was also finally documented officially by Columbia/Legacy Recordings’ with the 1998 release of the CD Live 1966: The “Royal Albert Hall” Concert—The Bootleg Series Vol. 4, Dylan’s 1966 performance at Free Trade Hall in Manchester, England. It was shot under Dylan’s direction by D. A. Pennebaker, whose groundbreaking documentary Dont Look Back chronicled Dylan’s 1965 British tour. The film was originally commissioned for the ABC television series Stage ’66.

Bob Dylan’s 1966 tour of Europe created more controversy and artistic debate than any other tour to date. Dylan left behind his image as a scruffy, socially relevant folk singer and now embraced rock ‘n’ roll: his clothes were mod, his lyrics oblique, and the music loud. His once loyal fans bombarded him with shouts of “Judas” and “traitor.”

Though shooting had completed for Eat the Document it wasn’t edited until Dylan recovered from his July 1966 “motorcycle accident”. Once well enough to work again, Bob Dylan edited the film with the help of Howard Alk—resulting in an extraordinary look into the artist’s psyche. ABC rejected the film as incomprehensible for a mainstream audience.

It has never been released on home video and prints are rarely screened in theatres. Some footage from Eat the Document was used in Martin Scorsese’s 2005 documentary on Bob Dylan, No Direction Home. This is the Watchdog Production that has become known as the standard DVD production of this movie. Included are the 20+ minute car ride with John Lennon and other outtakes. Running time is 80 minutes, and features the following tracks:

Tell Me, Momma / What Kind Of Friend Is This? / I Can't Leave Her Behind / Like A Rolling Stone / I Still Miss Someone / I Don't Believe You / Ballad Of A Thin Man / Just Like Tom Thumb's Blues / Baby Let Me Follow You Down / Mr. Tambourine Man / One Too Many Mornings / On A Rainy Afternoon
Bonus tracks: Ballad Of A Thin Man (out-take version) / Bob Dylan & John Lennon In A Car (20 minutes of out-take footage)

The Beatles – Let It Be
Let It Be is a filmed documentary of the Beatles rehearsing and recording their new album in 1969.  The film culminated with a concert by the group set on the rooftop on their own Apple office building in London's west end.  Paul McCartney's concept for the album and film was that it wasn't going to have studio trickery like overdubs and effects.  It was "back to the roots" with the Beatles performing the songs in a natural way.  The film and it's accompanying soundtrack was delayed while the Beatles recorded and released their final album "Abbey Road".  It was eventually released in 1970 and received an Academy Award for it's title song.

For the Beatles completist and serious fans, the biggest frustration has been in not finding the "Beatles - Let It Be" in a complete, uncropped, great quality version. The reason for this is quite interesting. The original film was shot in 16mm (standard TV 4x3 format).  However, when the film was released, they cropped the 16mm print by chopping off parts of the top and bottom and blew it up to 35mm widescreen. I myself wondered in the 70's why the picture quality was so mediocre right in the movie theatre!  Now we all know why.  So even in the theatre, one did NOT get to see the full picture that was filmed.

Then to add insult to injury, when Let It Be was released in the 1980's on Beta and VHS videotape and on Laserdisc (all in standard TV 4x3 format), the manufacturers did NOT go back to the original 16mm film that was shot in the same format. INSTEAD, they sourced it from the 35mm widescreen theatre print and CHOPPED it AGAIN, this time from the sides. So anyone purchasing previous Beta, VHS and Laserdisc versions of Let It Be, now got to see even LESS!, since it had now been chopped on all 4 sides.

The recent WIDESCREEN, STEREO import DVD release rectified a lot of the problems.  For anyone that saw the film in the theatres in the 70's, it is great now to be able to see the original theatrical release, in stereo AND in much improved quality, including clearer picture and more natural colours.  However, as enjoyable as this version is (which would satisfy most collectors), it still is missing the top and bottom portions from the originally shot 16mm film version.

Now for the first time ever, we have available the original uncropped 4x3 version taken from a rare German 16mm film print.  This not only has ALL of the original picture filmed, but is also in much better quality and in stereo.  Of course, it is in 4x3 which is the old non-widescreen TV format. Some collectors will prefer the widescreen version that they are familiar with from the movie theatre.  Some will prefer the originally shot 4x3 film as it was originally intended. Running Length: 80 minutes

DAVID BOWIE – Cracked Actor

The Alan Yentob documentary. First broadcast on BBC1 in 1975.
Cracked Actor is a 53-minute-long BBC television documentary film about the pop star David Bowie. It was filmed in 1974. At the time he was a cocaine addict and the documentary has become notorious for showing Bowie's fragile mental state during this period. It was made by Alan Yentob for the BBC's Omnibus documentary strand, and was first shown, on BBC2 in the UK, on 26 January 1975.

The documentary depicts Bowie on tour in Los Angeles, using a mixture of documentary sequences filmed in limousines and hotels, and concert footage. Most of the concert footage was taken from a show at the Los Angeles Universal Amphitheatre on 2 September 1974. There were also excerpts from D.A. Pennebaker's concert film Ziggy Stardust and the Spiders from Mars, which had been shot at London's Hammersmith Odeon on 3 July 1973, as well as a few other performances from the tour. 'Cracked Actor' is notable for being one of the only sources for footage of Bowie's ambitious Diamond Dogs tour.

The title of the documentary was originally to be The Collector, after a comment that Bowie had made to interviewer Russell Harty the previous year, whereby he described himself as "a collector of accents". Yentob and his team were given the task of documenting Bowie's famous Diamond Dogs tour, which was already underway when they started filming. Locations for the documentary mainly centred around Hollywood and Los Angeles, but there was also concert footage taken from Philadelphia. A number of performances from the tour were shown, including songs such as "Space Oddity", "Cracked Actor", "Sweet Things/Candidate", "Moonage Daydream", "The Width of a Circle", "Aladdin Sane", "Time", "Diamond Dogs" and "John, I'm Only Dancing (Again)".

BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS

Amandla Festival, Boston 1979


The Amandla Festival of Unity was a world music festival held at Harvard Stadium in Boston, Massachusetts, on July 21, 1979. The festival was held in an effort to support and celebrate the liberation of South Africa and the on-going efforts of people in Boston to address racism in their families, schools, workplaces and communities. According to Wikipedia, the word ‘Amandla’ is from the South-African Zulu language and means ‘power’, ‘strength’ or ‘energy’.
Bob Marley is touring and playing songs from his forthcoming “Survival” album when he is asked to perform at the Amandla Festival. The forthcoming album has many politically charged songs including “Zimbabwe“, which is about the liberation of the African country of the same name. Marley makes several short speeches during his encore when he powerfully blames the system and urgently claims Africa’s unity and freedom. “Free Africa now cuz Africa nah free!” he shouts with defiance.  The onstage speeches are unusual for Marley, as he normally concentrates on the music carrying his message.  Performers include soul legend Patti LaBelle, jazz pianist Eddie Palmieri, drummer Babatunde Olatunji, the South African band Jabula and comedian Dick Gregory, who gives a 15-minute racially-charged speech before Marley’s performance.

Dance Craze The Best Of British Ska...Live!
1980

VHS to DVD Transfer
The picture is dark and grainy but that is Dance Craze from VHS!!
If you want a perfect DVD transfer of the 1988 VHS release then get this torrent!
If you want a perfect remastered picture and sound then you are gonna have to wait until it is professionally cleaned up and officially released on DVD
This video is first class. All of the performances are incredibly well chosen and well paced. A hugely enjoyable visual treat - magically edited, at times the whole group is pictured, and at others we home in on a particular percussionist or singer. There are no problems with the sync, whatsoever.
Aparently the director was innovative in using a steadicam in live music for the first time, and we get sweeping shots that are realistic, roar and energetic. Energy and talent abounds. Highly recommended.

The complete professionally shot concert. This can arguably be considered the biggest and most important Springsteen bootleg release for over 25 years. Fortunately this DVD set is worthy of that accolade.
The source for this DVD comes from a first generation videotape, transferred in XP mode to 4 DVD5s to provide the best possible quality. To prevent the loss of any quality, the show has been edited without re-encoding the video to make it fit on 3 DVD5s.

Tom Waits - Live In The Concert Film "Big Time" 1987
Running time: 87 Minutes.

Big Time filmed at San Francisco’s Warfield Theater and the Wiltern Theater in Los Angeles, is like entering a sideshow tent in Tom Waits’s brain. Directed by Chris Blum and written by Waits and his wife Kathleen Brennan, Big Time makes use of minimal sets and simple disguises to create a wildly evocative musical that draws from elements of vaudeville and burlesque. A truly unique vision from the always inventive Mr. Waits.
When the film was released in 1988, the press notes (grappling for some reference point) described it as a mix of avant-garde composer Harry Partch, Howlin’ Wolf, Frank Sinatra, Astor Piazzolla, Irish tenor John McCormack, Kurt Weill, Louis Prima, Mexican norteno bands and Vegas lounge singers. The dvd has 8 songs not on the cd release: Just Another Sucker On The Vine, Franks Wild Years, Shore Leave, Hang On To St. Christopher, 9th And Henepin, I"ll Take New York, More Than Rain & Innocent When You Dream whereas the cd has 5 songs not on the film: Red Shoes, Underground, Yesterday Is Here, Falling Down & Ruby's Arms

#23 BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS - Kingston Dub (Flac)


I obtained this some time ago from a specialist Marley site that no longer exists. It’s still one of my favourite Bob Marley & the Wailers collections. It contains dubs and versions from many rare Jamaican b-sides that were released on vinyl over 30 years ago and have surprisingly still not yet been made available on cd. There is a bit of crackle and pop from the vinyl on some sides but nothing too bad. This is roots rock reggae at it’s finest.





original notes

BOB MARLEY & THE WAILERS - KINGSTON DUB (revision B)
Kingston dub is a collection of dubs, versions and instrumentals that were released on the Tuff Gong label in Jamaica, on 7inch & 12inch single b-sides between 1972 and 1983.  Bob was reluctant to release a Dub album because he felt it would be a distraction from the message and lyrics in his music. Fortunately versions and dubs were used on the b-sides of the group’s singles especially in Jamaica and with many being unavailable on cd this collection is being posted until they see an official release.
The source used was mainly Kazo's black vinyl series 3-01 to 4-01, thanks to him for making and sharing the efforts of his work to the public.
