Rockshow Audience Reviews

Actuakers One of my all time favorites.
SoTrumpBelieve Must See Movie...
Contentar Best movie of this year hands down!
Chirphymium It's entirely possible that sending the audience out feeling lousy was intentional
sjones1448 I saw this in 1987 on MTV I think it was. You know back when they used to play good stuff. It was wonderful. Why it isn't on DVD is beyond me. If someone decides to release it on DVD please use the same footage without any remixes as I never like remixes. I mean one should never mess with a masterpiece. I have a cassette tape of the original soundtrack that I listen to on my home stereo that a friend made me. I love this music. I think this was a great period for rock music. Please release this without any remixes and in it's entirety on DVD! Paul McCartney, Linda McCartney, Denny Laine, Jimmy McCulloch, they're all here. And they're all good. This is from the golden age of rock. You know back when people had to be good before they got a recording contract.
whiskeyhill To my knowledge, Wings Over the World and Rockshow are not the same thing (as one comment seems to state). Both are based on Wings' 1976 world tour. But,to my knowledge, Rockshow is a concert film and was released in theaters (at least it played occasionally in theaters over the years). Wings Over the World was a TV special that aired in 1979 - I remember watching it. I recall it being more of a look at 'life on the road' side of the tour. All apologies if I stand corrected.
Alex (MooVbuff-3) This video has been out of print for over 10 years. It shows up from time to time at Beatles trade shows and can be found in older video rental stores. Hopefully this will be remastered for DVD someday and include extra moments from this 1976 Seattle show, such as Ringo Starr greeting Paul on stage after the encore.My videotape leaves out several songs present on the complete Wings Over America cd. This is odd because there is a trailer at the end of the tape that includes "Lady Madonna," which was cut from the 1981 Thorn/EMI release, which I believe is the last commercial release of this video. A few years ago VH-1 aired the show in its entirety the week "Flaming Pie" was released. Sir Paul has gone back and remastered a few Wings cds in the new 5 channel stereo format, so hopefully this will finally become available again. In the meantime, try to find the double cd "Wings Over America," which is also out of print but not hard to find.
EmilioCacao This is the best recorded tour of Paul McCartney, showing the power of his solid band Wings. Linda reaches beautiful vocal harmonies on "Listen To What The Man Said" and Paul distills love and careness for her in the masterpiece "Maybe I´m Amazed".The sound quality of the video is not the best; well, it was 1976 and the record machines for live performances weren´t as good as the studio ones, but It´s not the hi-fi sound that kicks here, is the talented Paul and his beloved wife.It´s pretty hard to get this picture, so I recommend you to buy the "Wings Over America" CD at www.amazon.com. It has all the movie songs, plus some surprises.
