Description
Truly a “visible jukebox” of 70’s rock. The best pro shot packed with the essence of classic rock is set to be released. The true identity of the jukebox is the West German music program “BEAT-CLUB”. This is a famous program on par with the British BBC. “BEAT-CLUB” is a music program that features unique studio live performances. It started in 1965 and broadcast a large number of rock videos until December 1972. After that, they continued to record the golden age of rock, changing their names to “MUSIKLADEN” and “EXTRATOUR” until the fall of the Berlin Wall in 1989. This work is the official compilation “THE HISTORY OF BEAT CLUB VOL.2” selected from such famous programs. The “BEAT-CLUB” archive is a treasure in the rock world, and many compilations have been released to this day. Among them, this work is the laser disc version released in the series in 1991. It is precisely digitized. Contains one of the best songs from 25 bands/artists. The order of the songs is also random, so let’s roughly organize them by broadcast date. ●1969 appearances (1 group): Three Dog Night ●1970 appearances (9 groups): Renaissance, Jethro Tull, Badfinger, The Flock, Black Sabbath, Free, Ginger Baker’s Air Force, Colosseum, EL&P ●1971 appearances (5 groups) Groups): Curved Air, Yes, The Byrds, Deep Purple, Fleetwood Mac ●1972 appearances (4 groups): Jeff Beck Group, Stephen Stills & Manassa, King Crimson, Alice Cooper ●1973 appearances (4 groups): T. Rex, Thin Lizzy, Roxy Music, New York Dolls ●1974 appearance (1 group): The Doobie Brothers ●1975 appearance (1 group): 10cc…And so it goes like this. THREE DOG NIGHT is barely in the 1960s, but the rest of the lineup is centered around 1970-1973, with each band either in their promising new era or in their golden era when they just released their masterpieces. It’s all about the time. RENAISSANCE during the Jane Relf era, FREE sparked by “FIRE AND WATER,” EL&P right after their debut, second JBG with Cozy Powell, KING CRIMSON during the Jamie Muir era, and “SCHOOL’S OUT” took the world by storm. Alice Cooper in the early days, THIN LIZZY in the trio era, etc. I don’t have time to list them all. What’s more, it’s amazing that all the performances are original and valuable live performances. In the 1980s, with the spread of home VCRs and the popularity of MTV, rock videos were mass-produced, but in the 1970s, even if they were shot, their uses were limited. For this reason, each video is extremely valuable, and especially live performances that are not lip-synced are extremely important. The footage shown has a 70’s feel to it, but the film itself also has a 90’s feel to it. In the 1980s, as “watching rock music at home” became popular, video works such as live performances, PV collections, documentaries, etc. suddenly blossomed. Video compilations began to be produced in the late 1980s, when individual band products had settled down. At that time, video works went out of print in the blink of an eye, and enthusiasts rushed to buy laser discs in search of valuable footage of one or two songs. And, what is important is that I was surprised by images that were not intended for purpose. All of the images I didn’t expect were amazing, and my interest was piqued more and more. There’s a feeling of confusion, not knowing what will come next, and a sense of excitement, like turning over a toy box. It is completely different from today’s pinpoint search culture, and is full of the flavor of the early 90’s. Please refer to the list of songs below for the songs included. To be honest, there are many bands these days that have advanced individual archives, so it may not make much sense to fill out individual collections. However, the fun of rock treasures coming out one after another is unique to compilations. The movement itself is a precious scent of the 70’s, and the scent of the early 90’s when compilations were in full bloom. One piece where you can enjoy both of them for 2 hours at the highest quality. Taken from the original Japanese laser disc PRO-SHOT (118:59) 1. Intro 2. Black Sabbath (Black Sabbath) 3.
