Multi-cam view of I Don't Even Know Myself. Original footage grabbed from Historic Films (if the watermark wasn't obvious enough) however, it was a bit of a mess. For a start, the full 2 hours of footage had NO AUDIO. So I had to go through all the footage and match the correct audio to it. The footage includes only a few songs from the show, but from multiple angles. It does include some pretty cool bits of film though, like the second verse of Shakin' All Over which wasn't in the final video release. Issue number two. The video was cropped AND in the wrong aspect ratio (4:3) resulting in the footage being stretched thin. I fixed the aspect ratio which is in (16:10 - 1920x1200). I thought it would be a standard (16:9) but that wasn't the case. Finally, the footage was also in a low resolution (360p) and pretty pixelated. So I have gone through the painstakingly slow process of A.I. upscaling all the footage to make it look a lot closer to the official releases quality. Of course this still has the watermark/timecodes on the screen but this is as good as it's going to possibly get so I hope you all enjoy this unique view of the The Who at the Isle Of Wight.
Are we ever going to experience this ever again? I don’t think in my lifetime. But there are bands out there that people absolutely love but I can’t get into the bleachers or pop singers these days. I want the 1980s again. That whole era of hair band not all rock ‘n’ roll stars on Gyros on the LA strip was awesome and I wish I would’ve been a little bit older. I was only born in 1980 but I was definitely rocking out as hard as I could when I was seven years old. And then by 10 years old, I started playing guitar because my dad builds electric guitars patented from his own design from a block of wood.
Even with the issues that had to be worked out, it's really nice to have video footage of Pete on the SG (and of course the other camera angles). Would've been nice if all four cameras were rolling as close to the whole time as possible (barring reloading), but can't do anything about that--footage that never existed never existed

Awesome
