Mehr geile Infos zum Package vom Regisseur persönlich:
Thom Zimny, the editor of all of Springsteen’s recent concert films (Live in New York City, Live in Barcelona, VH1 Storytellers) brought a treat for the conference crowd on Sunday: a sneak peak of the Hammersmith Odeon DVD, which will present the complete 11/18/75 London show as part of the upcoming Born to Run 30th Anniversary reissue. Yes, we’ve finally gotten official confirmation of at least some of the much-rumored additional content for this package, and what better confirmation than two songs played in full, „She’s the One“ and „Quarter to Three“ — in full color and at full blast.
Just days before the London show, Mike Appel approached Mike Appleton (original producer of the Old Grey Whistle Test) and asked if he’d film the performance. Most of the reulsting 16mm negatives sat in a storage locker — in unlabeled cannisters — for the better part of 30 years, until Zimny was asked to work his magic. You might have already seen some circulating footage from the show… but you ain’t seen nothin‘ yet. Zimny spent the better part of a year piecing together footage from three cameras, restoring it frame-by-frame, synching it up with pristine audio (mixed by Bob Clearmountain in both stereo and surround), and the result is a jaw-dropper!!!
