I have just taken delivery of this album/DVD today.
Could not wait to view the Reading footage as I had waited forever and a day to see it after hearing how legendary a performance this was. I was so excited it was almost like hearing them again for the first few times like when I saw them on the Tube and Top Of The Pops TV shows in England back in the day. I absoloutely loved it. You could tell that the band really put their all into this performance, they absoloutely slayed the crowd and it was fantastic to see the footage of Dee actually asking the audience out backstage for all the non believers. The track listing is great and shows you just how good UTB was as a debut album bar the production. Talking of production considering when this was filmed the remastering on the sound and picture quality is excellent. Hats off to those responsible.
On a seperate note I watched this DVD with my two year old daughter "Zoe" and it was truly a moment to savour as I sang all the words back to her and got her to punch the air and say "I like it" several times during It's only Rock'N'Roll. I almost had a tear in my eye as I told her all the bands names and for some reason she genuinely refered to Dee Snider as "Jesus"!!? She loved it and kept repeating the words "This is your favourite band Daddy isn't it? You can't buy moments like that!!
She even recognised the TS logo when I logged onto the slamboard. What a proud moment.
Long Live Rock 'N' Roll.
