Summary: Spandau Ballet Live...Stunning Sound and Musicianship!!
Review: Didnt know this DVD existed..just bought it today, here in Liverpool,England(4th March 2003)The U.K. version is identical in content...only the cover is different.
I'm 41 yrs of age, so I remember Spandau in their glory days of the early eighties...must say, I wasn't a big fan back then....I preferred more rock oriented stuff..plus Duran Duran (!!!!)However, the sands of time do strange things to a man...lol...and over the last couple of years or so, I have picked up their last CD.."Heart Like A Sky"(1989),not a big seller for them..and discovered a really well- produced melodic rock/A.O.R. gem...GREAT SONGS AND GOOD SOLID MUSICIANSHIP...this switched me on to re-examine some of their earlier hits...and I listened with new(mature) ears,and I was impressed.Still not too sure about their very early"New Romantic" hits "Chant No 1" and"Long Story" which unfortunately feature here too, but I suppose they had to honour their heritage!! The rest of the DVD Live show is par excellance..to my joy, featuring a big chunk of the CD I mentioned earlier.."Heart Like A Sky",plus most of their hits.
The sound is only in stereo, but the"mix" is fab....my compliments to the audio engineers..they did a good job!! The band show just how musically talented they were...forget the teen-idol thing....seeing this from 13 yrs ago, just goes to show how "lame" todays T.V. manufactured "pop idols" really are....Any wannabees like to know how it really should be done...go grab an instrument..guitar, keys, drums or sax,take a few years out learning how to play it properly,develop your song-writing talents...view this live DVD..then go out there and do it!!Summary : This DVD Rocks....Go Get It Regards Neil T. (England)

Summary: Great Live Show
Review: I was so happy to find this DVD Live concert of Spandau Ballet!
It brought back a lot of memories.
It has good quality and the show is great. They sound even better live! The only thing about this DVD is that I was also hoping for some backstage footage or interviews or at least some extra clips of the group. I hope they release more Spandau Ballet stuff, maybe even a collection of their old videos. If you love Spandau Ballet, you NEED to buy this!

Summary: A must have for Spandau Ballet fans.
Review: This is a great DVD. Tony Hadley sounds better than ever in this 1990 concert. All the big hits are included as well as several "newer" songs from an LP I never new existed (Released after "Though the Barricades"). The DVD is recorded in 2 channel surround and sounds great compared to VHS. There are no special features on this DVD. I was hoping that it would include some backstage footage for example.
