Various Artists Gary Moore,Twisted Sister,Judas Priest,Motorhead/Ultimate Legendary UK Music Program Tube

Here is a high-quality compilation featuring *The Tube*, the live music program broadcast on Britain’s Channel 4 in the mid-1980s that delighted music fans of the era. While the source material appears to be original video recordings from the time, the quality is undeniably superior to the underground bootlegs that previously circulated; it is the ultimate compilation that will satisfy even the most discerning enthusiasts. The tracks are arranged chronologically, starting with Twisted Sister during the *Under the Blade* era; the sheer intensity of their opening performance is overwhelming. The third track—a cover of the Stones’ “It’s Only Rock ‘n’ Roll”—includes a bonus moment where Lemmy and Brian Robertson, who had been drinking at the studio bar, storm the stage to join the band. Dee’s performance is nothing short of extraordinary—words cannot do it justice; it simply must be seen. Next up is Tygers of Pan Tang, performing three songs from their 1983 album *The Cage*. John Deverill’s vocals possess that soulful, emotive quality typical of great British rock singers. You can enjoy straightforward, appealing performances from a period when the band was aiming for a more pop-oriented sound: “Making Tracks” (featuring a Def Leppard-esque ensemble feel), the piano-driven ballad “The Actor,” and the single “Love Potion No. 9.” For Judas Priest, the set begins with a bit of a hitch—perhaps the backing tape for “Hellion” failed to play? After some fumbling sound-check moments, they simply count off and launch into “Electric Eye” with tremendous power. Rob’s vocals are magnificent throughout—proving exactly why they were destined to conquer the world—and the band delivers a masterclass performance that demonstrates they are in a league of their own. Their high-octane medley of three classic songs is truly staggering; it is the kind of performance that would have kept anyone glued to their television screen. It serves as a powerful reminder—if one were even needed—of just how incredible Judas Priest was at the peak of their powers during this era. The Motörhead footage captures the band during the *No Remorse* era (1984), featuring the newly formed quartet lineup of Phil Campbell, Würzel, and Pete Gill (formerly of Saxon)—a rare and valuable look at this specific period. The Gary Moore segment dates to the *Victims of the Future* era (1984); with the addition of Neil Carter—who handled guitar, backing vocals, and keyboards—the band had established a solid live dynamic, allowing Moore to play with great freedom, all captured in raw, vivid footage. The rhythm section features Ian Paice on drums and Craig Gruber (formerly of the original Rainbow lineup) on bass. The UFO segment captures their 1985 comeback following a three-year hiatus, coinciding with the release of *Misdemeanor*; they perform two tracks from this album—which is packed with excellent songs—featuring the Japanese-American technical guitarist Atomic Tommy M. Highlights include Phil Mogg’s commanding and soulful vocals, Paul Raymond’s tasteful keyboard work, and the impressive playing of Tommy M, a master of intricate, high-speed shredding. The Ozzy Osbourne footage is from the *Ultimate Sin* era (1986); the band brought an elaborate stage set into the studio and delivered three high-energy performances from that album. Jake E. Lee’s world-class playing demonstrates his superior caliber, making the live takes of “Ultimate Sin” and “Never Know Why” a fresh and captivating watch. Also not to be missed is the performance by the late Randy Castillo, who dazzles fans with his flamboyant drumming style. The Bon Jovi segment captures the band around the time of the *Slippery When Wet* release (1986), featuring performances of “Runaway” alongside hits like “You Give Love a Bad Name” and “Livin’ on a Prayer”—a real treat for fans. This footage showcases the five-man lineup, notably featuring Alec John Such, who stands out with his energetic and lively stage presence. The live performance of “Livin’ On A Prayer” is fascinating to watch, featuring early-era live arrangements—such as the keyboard intro—and a vocal style from Jon that differs significantly from his later work (it is a truly amazing, youthful performance!). It is perhaps no surprise that “Runaway” stands out as the most polished track (even though it cuts off before the end). The final segment features Dio from 1986, during the *Sacred Heart* era. It includes two hit singles: “Hungry For Heaven” (featured in the movie *Vision Quest*) and “Rock ‘n’ Roll Children.” Ronnie’s vocals are spectacular throughout, allowing you to fully savor his one-of-a-kind voice, while Craig—having just joined the band—delivers a solid performance. As there have been no rebroadcasts, the footage relies on original video masters; while this results in occasional tracking noise or momentary audio dropouts, the overall quality is superb. It is a gem that fans of this era will enjoy 200%. Highly recommended for experiencing the raw appeal and capturing the essence of that time! Includes an original menu. Twisted Sister 1.
