      Most video recordings in the eighties were made onto magnetic tape. The quality of those is not the best. However, with footage done on film like this, you don't need remastering, just a good copy and scanning it in 4K. That's it.

Just goes to show that a good product does not need to change just for the sake of it being on the market for a long time.

      Indeed. I was there in Golden Hall in San Diego during The Who's "Tommy Tour" on June 13, 1970. The four of them came bouncing onto the stage wearing white jumpsuits, and proceeded to play the entire "Tommy" album non-stop from start to finish. (At least it seemed that way to me; the link below says a few songs were omitted.) I adored the Tommy album, and had not expected such a treat.

      About Moon... so many other drummers say he couldn't keep time... rubbish. Entwistle's bass was really playing lead guitar. The guy was a phenomenal musician. Found Daltrey's posturing a bit much but what a lead man. True group... they all contributed. Play in a band (altho nearly 70!) as part time drummer not sure if that applies. V difficult with all the egos. Also, everyone knows how to drum better than you do.

      I think it's actually the film reel that was used back then is really good quality, only problem was the tvs were not powerful enough to show it, good quality film reels fron the 60s/70s cleaned up are actually the equivalent of a 40k-100k clear picture(we are currently at 4k digitally). Source - the moon landings movie that cane out in the summer Q&A with director on picture quality.

    I’m 51 years old. Listening to this with ear pods in. I’m back in time, the late 70s - early 80s listen on my mom’s turntable trying not to skip the album by jumping around to the music. Giant speakers are throbbing, my bare feet are pounding the carpet under my feet, my arms are in the air. I’m loving life not knowing what awaits me.

There is no one who compares to these bands for live rock and roll music anymore. I wouldn't spend $25 bucks to see them, but I'd spend $500 any of the classics from that earlier generation, even if the bands need some help now that they're in their later years!
