Product Description

Meat Loaf s Bat Out Of Hell is one of the most iconic albums of the seventies. Released in October 1977 it has sold in excess of 40 million copies worldwide. In the UK it is certified 10 x Platinum for more than 3 million sales. This concert from the Stadthalle Offenbach in Germany was filmed in June 1978 for the German Rockpalast TV series and perfectly captures the raw excitement of the original Bat Out Of Hell tour with Meat Loaf dominating the stage and the album s songwriter Jim Steinman contributing heavily. Most of the tracks from the album are featured alongside covers of Johnny B Goode and River Deep, Mountain High . This is a superb film of the original Bat Out Of Hell tour.

Truly Awful - but somehow mesmerising

It has to be said that the recording quality hasn't stood the test of time and there doesn't seem to be any restoration. The quality of the picture is pretty terrible most of the time (ultra soft focus and very dark) and there are times where is almost impossible to see what is going on (even on a large HD screen).

The sound is OK compared to what it must have been live but it has to be said that the mixing is pretty terrible (there is a chunk of Bat where Meat is singing full blast with no sound because his microphone is off). Generally the balance is pretty shoddy.

So why 5 stars ???? because it is fantastic to get to see Meat Loaf (and there is a lot of him) back in the 70s and to see the band and lets face it this is as good as it gets.

Having seen Meat Loaf a number of times in recent years I was beginning to think his voice was so wrecked that it was time he hung up his mic but it is interesting to hear that even back at the beginning he couldn't sing in tune to save his life. What his voice lacks in quality he compensates for in sheer energy and massive ego.

If this all sounds a bit negative I have to say I thoroughly enjoyed the concert and I am of to see Meat again in a couple of months. There is something enduringly appealing about just how hard he tries and even when his voice misses the notes by a mile you know damn well the audience will be there to drown him out on the difficult bits.

Can anyone seriously imagine a record company employing Meat Loaf today if he turned up as he was back in the good old days?? And yet he is a true cultural icon of the late 20th and early 21st centuries - a genuine one off and long may he continue ;)

Being the original footage sound and picture are not as sharp as I am used to but worth the money to remember seeing Meatloaf live
