"Rhiannon" Midnight Special on DVD

[lbfan]

midnightspecial.com is indicating that the "Rhiannon" performance will be on the first DVD to be released. However, it is a "subscription offer only" (first disk costs $9.95 + $3.95 s&h and they send two more disks within six weeks for $19.95 each (+s&h) with no opportunity to cancel). I hope they include "Why" on a future disk.

I actually called them and they told me whenever I wanted to cancel just to call......... I signed up........ also if you don't want to keep any of the DVD's I believe you can send them back........

It's worth the subscription ... "Over My Head" is included on another volume as well as performances from Heart and Olivia Newton-John. Worth getting.

I just ordered my copy. The email confirmation I received was from Guthy-Renker. Aren't they the skin care people? I guess they're branching out!

I received the first volume of The Midnight Special DVDs in the mail. Rhiannon is on the first volume. The picture is pretty good. But there's something strange about the sound. For the first part of the performance, there is a consistent murmur in the background. It almost sounds like a man mumbling. I found it very distracting.

Roy Orbison - Pretty Woman
Fleetwood Mac - Rhiannon
Peter Framptom - Baby I Love Your Way
John Denver & Cass Elliot - Leaving on a Jet Plane
The Bee Gees - Jive Talkin'
Linda Ronstadt - You're No Good
The Guess Who - American Woman
Al Green - Let's Stay Together
Aretha Franklin - Respect
David Bowie - Space Oddity
Blondie - Heart of Glass
Labelle - Lady Marmalade
The Steve Miller Band - The Joker
Billy Joel - Travelin' Prayer
Donna Summer - Last Dance

That mumbling/humming sound was there when the show first aired. I've always thought it was Mick...

Does it cut off at the end in that stupid still shot ? I always thought the tape broke.

I thought it was the Rosebud version that did that?

That murmuring is on my VHS copy too...I thought it was VCR noise bleeding into the tape somehow. Shame they couldn't (or didn't) clean that up for the DVD.

I never noticed the murmuring before. But it's been years since I watched it on VHS. It's loud and clear on the DVD!
