| The previous reviewer of this disc is correct with his song listing,and so,the two programs being reissued on this disc("A Special From The Spectrum" recorded in Philadelphia and "Live '83",recorded in Utrecht,Holland) are NOT being reissued complete,with "Stand up and Shout" omitted from the Philadelphia concert,and a 20 minute version of "Heaven & Hell" being omitted from the Utrecht show.When I buy a DVD reissue of a program that I've already owned on VHS or Laserdisc,then,ideally,I'd like to get extra songs and supplemental material,but,at the very least,I want to get the original program complete.Although it's true that the song contents of the two concerts overlapped,that's no excuse for dropping songs.I wonder if it was Ronnie James Dio's decision,or merely a stingy record company trying to save money by reducing the payout of mechanical royalties.This DVD is a deplorable rip-off,and useless as an upgrade to fans who already own the complete,uncut programs via previous VHS or Laserdisc releases.This release is an import from Universal Music(who has the non-U.S. rights on the 1980's DIO recordings). Let's hope that Rhino & Warner Brothers(who have the U.S. rights) never release these edited versions of the programs.Oh well,I guess I'll transfer my vintage VHS of the Spectrum concert and my Japanese Laserdisc of the Utrecht concert onto DVD-R.Because this is a virtuoso heavy metal group with substantial amounts of improvisation from the guitarist & drummer,no two performances of a song are identical.A slight overlap in song contents between the Philadelphia & Utrecht shows is NOT a justification to omit the "redundant" songs.Though "Stand Up & Shout" & "Heaven and Hell" were included in both shows,they were hardly identical renditions.This DVD should be taken off the market.Please Rhino & Time-Warner:Spare U.S. fans from this travesty,and NEVER release these edited programs in America.DIO fans:You've been warned about this worthless product. |
