Description
“Britain in the 1970s” led the world music scene. The ultimate professional shot that gives you a panoramic view of the British music scene has been decided to be released. This work includes “THE OLD GRAY WHISTLE TEST (OGWT)”, a traditional and famous program of the British BBC. It was a music program that represented the UK from 1971 to 1987, and is well-known among collectors as it has produced many masterpiece professional shots. The program itself has long since ended, but in 2001, a special program “70’S GOLD” was broadcast to commemorate the 40th anniversary of the program’s start. This work is a reprint of this special number from the finest master recorded by overseas core collectors. The quality by the BBC’s master master is completely official, and you can enjoy an ultra-excellent music experience over the 1 hour and 30 minute broadcast time slot. What is more important than the quality is the content. As the title suggests, the theme is “70s”, and the live performances broadcast on “OGWT” from 1971 to 1979 are arranged in chronological order. This is more than just a “70s video collection.” To begin with, “OGWT” is a very unique program, and the performers perform live in the station’s studio. This live performance, which is not an MTV-like clip or a mime, reveals the essence of the artist, and the spectacle that is not a so-called stage concert is extremely valuable for any artist. It’s like a video version of a BBC radio session, and the mood that only “OGWT” has, which is between a studio and a concert, is delicious. What’s more, it’s great that the 70s are arranged in chronological order. The 1970s was a time when new music was emerging from Britain one after another, but at the same time, British people were also greedy for music from overseas. “OGWT” also features such overseas performers, and vividly expresses the music that the British loved during the nine years from 1971 to 1979. Let’s organize the contents here. ●British teams★1971-1973 (7 groups) Elton John (1971), LINDISFARNE (1971), David Bowie (1972), VINEGAR JOE (1973), BRINSLEY SCHWARZ (1973), ROXY MUSIC (’73), ARGENT (’73)★1974-1976 (1 group)・DR. FEELGOOD (75)★1977-1979 (2 groups)・THE JAM (78), THE SPECIALS (1979) ● Overseas artists from the US and elsewhere ★1971-1973 (5 groups) STEPPENWOLF (1972), Curtis Mayfield (1972), Gladys Knight & THE PIPS (1972), NEW YORK DOLLS ( 1973), Bob Marley & THE WAILERS (1973) ★1974-1976 (2 groups) Captain Beefheart (1974), Johnny Winter (1974), Patti Smith (1976), Gil・Scott Heron (1976) ★1977-1979 (5 groups) ・Greg Allman & Cher (1977), Tom Petty & THE HEARTBREAKERS (1977), TALKING HEADS (1978), BLONDIE (1979) ), Iggy Pop (1979), and so on. All 24 groups that appear in this work are divided into “British” and “other”, and further subdivided into three years each based on the year of appearance. As you can see, there is a wide variety of artists, from famous historical heroes to cool musicians, and the genres are diverse, including various types of rock, pop, soul/R&B, punk, new wave… The jukebox feel of the wide range is great, but it’s even better to have it in chronological order. At the beginning, there are a lot of young British rock greats, but from the mid-1970s onwards they are being pushed by foreign groups, and towards the end you can see that they have been replaced. The genre also changed from classic rock/R&B to new wave. This work not only allows you to enjoy a “70s nostalgic melody,” but also allows you to feel the “flow of the times” condensed into one and a half hours. “70s Britain” is too special in popular music. This is a piece that will run through such times with the unique “OGWT” collection. Even if you play it without thinking about it, it’s a collection of hit songs from the best professional shots, and if you pay attention to each band/artist, it’s a rush of precious studio live performances that will make you dizzy. In total, it is also a video work that gives you a glimpse of a page in music history. Just like MTV, you can enjoy it and wonder what’s coming next, or you can delve into it deeply. A masterpiece that can be enjoyed from any perspective. High quality studio live compilation from 1971 to 1979 PRO-SHOT 1. Intro. 2. Elton John – Tiny Dancer(1971) 3.
