    Stop with the nonsense, Annie and the Renassance were ahead of their times, there music , amazingly mesmerizing, had to be heard in person, I saw the Renaissance in my Alma mater, Hunter College in 1976-77, and Annie blew us all away, Ruthie Henshall is in another league , but, let's wait 35 years and see how her voice can hold up! Give Annie and the Renaissance their immortal spot in the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame, already!

    Amazed at how many here are talking shit. This sounds great. What she was doing at the beginning was a look of disapproval to the one guitarist in all Black who was fucking around with his floor rig. I believe she thought it unprofessional. Her voice is just great,as is the tune.

    • @MadanRajaRock
      @MadanRajaRock 7 лет назад +2

      Voice is great. Tune, maybe a great one (not for me, but hey that's we all have different tastes). She's not necessarily in tune all the time though. That said, she is not unbearably off tune either and that is rarely the case anyway for her. Could be a case of Mike Olfield fans not feeling too charitable to another singer covering the song.

    @mallard4998 'Going through the motions' is what I felt listening to this and other clips from this concert. Her usual, chirpy energy is strangely absent here. It is well documented in interviews that the going was tough for her at this time. She was in a dilemma whether to go commercial or stick to her strengths at this time. Ofc, Blessing in Disguise would happen and change everything but the late 80s is the pits of Annie's career.

  • @muppetrowlf1473
    @muppetrowlf1473 7 лет назад +3

    I think the interesting thing about this clip is proof to any aspiring musician that the sum of the parts ( i.e. great musicians ) doesn't naturally mean you get great music all the time. There are probably technical errors with the fold back, but that shouldn't be a problem for a professional/experienced singer. Annie has trouble pitching this song all the way through. Probably the most inexcusable crime is the arrangement. The tempo is probably a bit quick and reinforced by sterile/metronomic drumming with absolutely no feel whatsoever. The result: A truly god awful cover version.

    • @MadanRajaRock
      @MadanRajaRock 7 лет назад +2

      The interesting thing is this line up which is delivering such a pathetic show includes Rave Tesar on keyboard and Mark Lambert (?) on guitar. I don't recognise the bassist, wonder if he too has done other turns for Annie. Drummer is probably Goldberger. In short, an entire line up that's seen far, far better days and can very well put together an inspiring set for the audience. But it's almost like they couldn't be bothered that day.

      Keyboard player in this band was Raphael Rudd. I believe he died in a car crash. Was also the piano player in the acoustic Renaissance when they split with Jon Camp. You wouldn't believe how hard he hit the piano on those gigs. He absolutely pulverized it!

  • @MadanRajaRock
    @MadanRajaRock 12 лет назад +1

    *bump* It may be pertinent to mention here that she was already deaf in one ear by this point. I don't know about this concert, but at this point she was supposed to have also experienced severe pain in the ears. It might explain why not only here but in general, in concerts from the 90s or later, her intonation lacks the precision she possessed in the 70s. Must be a nightmare to sing live, especially very 'clean', melodic material, when you can't hear yourself or the other musicians well.

She is still my number one though.....

    Right, there are at least three different kinds of female voices as per fach without getting into lighter/heavier voice types. I think what people mean is she is technically the most accomplished singer....at least in rock/pop. I don't know of very many I have heard that I would rate higher. Unfortunately, people tend to club everything related to singing in the word 'voice' but there's no such thing as 'best voice'.
