America - Wind Wave: Musikladen 1975

For the longest time, whenever I would pull up youtube videos of America's songs, I would see them playing in this setting, which looked as though they were in someone's garage or basement. Finally, I checked into it and discovered that the video clips I was watching came from this television special. When you watch it, you'll get the feeling that the band was really uncertain of what the producers had in mind. After the first song, "Ventura Highway", one of the guys asks, "So how is this gonna work? Can we do another take if we're not happy? Because I'd like to do that one again." An off-camera voice tells them to keep going. This is not to say that the quality of the recordings is not great. To the contrary, it shows what perfectionists these guys were, because I cannot hear a note out of place. If you're a fan of America, you will not be disappointed with this purchase.

Sincere thanks to the seller. The item arrived before due date and was what I expected.

dvd was great. It was my wifes first band to see in 1975.

I ordered "america - wind wave: musikladen 1975 and I received .........."hot runner" dvd movie. What is that!!!!! It's like you go to a fancy restaurant and order a juice steak and you receive...a stone. Twist and shouts warehouse I am not going to have any business with you again!!!

THis is pristine recording and in studio recorded live concert with no audience. However you can just search for America: The Best Of MusikLaden Live (1975) and spend $10 less than this ticket price of $17. To me this American capitalism at its worst.

Bel DVD per i fans e nostalgici degli America degli anni '70 con Dan Peek ancora parte della Band . Un piacevole salto nel passato e nei primi 2 Albums , forse in assoluto i più belli. Il compianto Dan da sfoggio della sua bravura chitarristica . Piacevole anche l'immediatezza del concerto , che e' a porte chiuse in un ambiente semplice e artigianale , con i musicisti che accordano le chitarre tra un brano e un altro . Una atmosfera tipica di molti giovani di quegli anni , che trovavano nella musica il loro passatempo preferito dopo la scuola , che si chiudevano in cantine per non disturbare i vicini , a suonare e molti solo a provare di suonare , senza ausilio di basi e computer ma solo con il proprio strumento. Anche per questo, il DVD e' piacevole , perché la fotografia dei giovani di quella generazione che trovavano nella musica un valore portante della propria vita . Curioso pure il ritratto di Marx appeso nel fondo della sala visibile ad un attento osservatore . Un DVD che apprezzerà sicuramente chi era adolescente e giovane negli anni '70
