    Как же коммунисты могли допустить иностранно-капиталистическую музыку, развращающую советскую коммунистическую молодежь ? С ума сошли, предали дело Ленина-Сталина, козлы ! Сталин бы за такое вообще расстрелял военно полевым судом

    Have seen bits & pieces of this concert, hearing a lot more. Elton’s voice is great, as a pianist the best. He puts so emotion into every song he sings. Of courts his interactions with the audience is marvelous & endearing. Of course Bernie’s lyrics, Also he looks so handsome.❤❤❤

      Probably vodka, he was known to have a drink or two at some 1979 shows

    Звук из зала наложен,- в Советском Союзе не свистели и не аплодировали после начала песни. Была полная тишина до ее окончания, уважение к труду артиста!😁

    I was stunned when I saw this as a young boy in East Germany TV. Ray Cooper made the deeper impression.

    There's some really good piano dynamics in this show. EJ manages to capture the 'belly' of the recorded versions just with his piano, the prime example being 'Daniel'. Very impressive.

    I believe that his piano playing as well as his voice was in its absolute prime in 1979. There's so much emotion in it.

    • @thomasglass7223
      @thomasglass7223 Рік тому

      Agree about his voice! This tour consistently has top notch singing. Although I would say his piano playing was a bit more creative in the 90s.

    I remember when this was broadcast on ABC. It was late on a friday and I had, had a bad date came home early and this was on. First exposure to Ray Cooper.

    He definitely played as good as he could play you can tell the way he’s singing he’s nervous to not mess up a single noteThe ruskies got a real treat with this no doubt.

    I saw Elton John and Ray Cooper live on stage at the Gaumont (now Mayflower) in Southampton on this same tour. The absolute best and most memorable gig that I have ever attended.

    The pitch is a little off.

  • @charlesc920

    look and sounds great, but I wish they would've speed corrected this footage since it's playing a bit fast. I wonder if it was shot at 24fps but played back at 25fps.

    • @thomasglass7223
      @thomasglass7223 2 роки тому

      the source for this one is a little bit strange. the common old youtube uploads run fast, but for some reason on this specific dvd copy, the SPEED has been corrected but the pitch hasnt. almost like its been “tempo corrected”. i tried to fix the pitch myself but it ended up sounding robotic and less pleasant

    • @charlesc920
      @charlesc920 2 роки тому

      i think i have the same "official" dvd release from shout factory and a cbs/fox vhs copy, both seem to come from the same master playing in the same pitch higher. probably when they transferred it originally from film to video, they just never fixed it.
