Description
The 1979 “NO NUKES” concert was an anti-nuclear event that was ahead of its time. The pattern was released in the form of a movie and a live album, but the movie has not yet been released in formats such as DVD or Blu-ray level. It was an extremely luxurious event that brought together West Coast artists of the time in the wake of the Three Mile Island accident that shocked the world at the time, and even more so because of the classic footage of Bruce Springsteen on stage. It’s strange that it hasn’t been released in a modern format yet, since it was so well-loved. However, it is not just a concert documentary, and the content, which also serves as an anti-nuclear appeal, can’t be denied the feeling that it has become outdated by now, and because of this, the rights relations etc. may have become complicated. It’s not hard to imagine. To make matters worse, Springsteen’s scene, which was the highlight of this movie, was the first of his music video collections to be released on DVD, so it feels like he was completely left out. In order to make a difference in this situation, we are releasing a version of the movie “NO NUKES” that was broadcast in Japan in the early Heisei era. This movie was also officially released in the era of VHS and laser discs, and it is assumed that the broadcast was based on the laser that was released in 1990. Thanks to this, the image quality is very good, a level of quality that even modern eyes can enjoy without complaint. Of course there are subtitles, but they are important for this movie. While there are many concert scenes, there are also scenes of the artists discussing the purpose of the concert and the management of the event. Subtitles are required here. There are many edits that divide the performance scene, and it is true that when you look at it now, it feels like it is outdated. This may also be the reason why the current software release is not possible. Jackson Browne, Graham Nash, and John Hall of Orleans appear frequently throughout the film, with Hall being the most enthusiastic and organized, and it is no wonder that these activities led to him becoming a politician. I can understand why. In addition, James Taylor was captured enthusiastically participating, but there was also an unexpected highlight: Steven Tyler of Aerosmith came to play in the dressing room on the day of the event. For that reason, Springsteen’s participation and presence is overwhelming, and unlike other artists, he does not have any comments on events or movements, but instead he performed the live performance of his new song “The River” for the first time before its release and recorded it in the movie. He showed his kind of cooperative attitude towards the event by giving permission (in addition, the movie was released before the song was released), but unlike other artists, his comments were not inserted during the performance. , I think this was a result that highlighted the amazingness of his performance. Overall, it is a very unique video even among rock live films made up to the early 1980s, and the cast is biased towards the West Coast (lol) in a good way, as well as their anti-nuclear advocacy. . On the other hand, in the scenes of Springsteen and the Doobie Brothers, where only the performance scenes were recorded, the editing that completely changes the atmosphere of the movie is really interesting. Considering the circumstances mentioned above, I don’t think the day will ever come when it will be released on Blu-ray etc. The nostalgic “NO NUKES”, which used to be one of the classic rock movies, is now available in degraded quality versions on YouTube. A rare version that can be viewed with the best image quality and subtitles to eliminate the dissatisfaction of such enthusiasts! Ultra high-quality video titles provided by enthusiasts.
