Abba/London,UK 11.10.1979 Japanese Broadcast Edition

A reprint series of the popular program “Western Music Live Legend”. The latest edition, the ABBA edition, is now available. This program is a Western music program broadcast by a certain satellite, and it broadcasts many masterpiece videos. The selection is extremely tasteful, and is popular for its top quality, program-specific commentary corner, and Japanese subtitles. This work is a multi-camera professional shot of “November 10, 1979 Wembley Arena performance” by such a famous program. This video is a symbol of ABBA. In the first place, the live footage itself is valuable, but the scene is also a highlight performance of the last tour “ABBA: THE TOUR”, which was held with the big hit of “VOULEZ-VOUS”. This is a masterpiece featuring a number of big hit songs in action and sung live. In addition, our store also introduces the best soundboard album “WEMBLEY ARENA 1979 1ST NIGHT” with a similar title, but this work is a different performance even though it is at the same venue. In order to explain the circumstances around that, let’s first look back at the schedule at that time. 1979《“VOULEZ-VOUS” released on April 23rd》・September 13th – October 7th: North America (18 performances)・October 19th – November 3rd: Europe (13 performances)・November 5th Sunday-10th: Wembley (6 performances) ←★Coko★・November 11th-15th: UK (4 performances) 1980・March 12th-27th: Japan (11 performances) This is “ABBA: THE TOUR” ”The overall picture. It ended with the only performance in Japan, but the main one is the European tour in the fall. The highlight was the 6 consecutive performances at Wembley Arena in the UK, and the live album “WEMBLEY ARENA 1979 1ST NIGHT”, as the title suggests, was performed on the first day (November 5th). On the other hand, the basis of this work is the show on the last day (November 10th) (by the way, the official live album “LIVE AT WEMBLEY ARENA” is also on the same last day as this work). This video was released on VHS/laserdisc at the time, but was later expanded to DVD in 2004. This work was broadcast in 2010, so it complies with the expansion version. Let’s organize the contents here.・WATERLOO (1 song): Waterloo (★) ・ARRIVAL (2 songs): Knowing Me, Knowing You/Dancing Queen ・ABBA: THE ALBUM (3 songs): Eagle (★)/Take A Chance On Me (★)/ Hole In Your Soul・VOULEZ-VOUS (4 songs): Voulez-Vous／Chiquitita／I Have A Dream／ Does Your Mother Know・GREATEST HITS VOL.2 (2 songs): Gimme! Gimme! Gimme! (A Man After Midnight )/Summer Night City・SUPER TROUPER (1 song): The Way Old Friends Do (★) *Note: Songs marked with “★” were not seen in the original release version. …and it looks like this. The “★” mark is just a comparison with the original release version, but “Eagle” and “The Way Old Friends Do” are famous songs that could not be heard even on the aforementioned “WEMBLEY ARENA 1979 1ST NIGHT”. It’s a hit parade that feels like a “best album to see with your eyes,” but this work is also a must-see for more than just the set. This video is not a pure concert film, with off-shots inserted here and there. It is also a road movie that depicts the four members on tour with a documentary touch. The many scenes that reveal his real face and popularity at the time are also full of mood. And this is where Japanese subtitles come into play. Many comments and casual conversations are all subtitled, allowing you to understand the content vividly. What’s more, the second “B” in “ABBA” is also upside down, which makes me happy. The 1979 Wembley Arena performance is a symbol of ABBA. Although the official live album “LIVE AT WEMBLEY ARENA” is the most important, this work not only conveys the “other side” but is also a video work that can accompany them as they travel around the world. A masterpiece of Nippon Broadcasting Corporation that should be collected together with the live album “WEMBLEY ARENA 1979 1ST NIGHT” from a separate performance.
