[The classic video of Delaney & Bonnie, the great LA swamp band that included Eric Clapton and George Harrison, is finally in color! ] Eric Clapton and George Harrison participated, and the 1969 concert video in Copenhagen, which has been highly praised as a classic Delaney & Bonnie & Friends video, has been made into color! It was originally recorded on black and white film, so it was artificially colored using modern technology. However, this is a very natural touch, faithfully reproducing the looks of each member and the color of the instruments at that time, and creating a new impression. We present to you this wonderful video. Speaking of Delaney & Bonnie & Friends, they are a husband and wife duo artist from the LA swamp who were active in the late 60's and early 70's, but their musicality was captivating at the time with Eric Clapton, George Harrison, Dave Mason, and Joe.・The band made a significant contribution to rock history in that it involved Cocker and even the Rolling Stones and promoted rock exchange between the United States and Britain. Eric Clapton's love for them was no small feat; in 1969, he abandoned the supergroup Blind Faith, which was in the midst of its success, and rushed to join them as a side guitarist. It was a major turning point in my career. On December 10, 1969, on December 10, 1969, on the final day of Clapton's tour to introduce the band to Europe, the stage footage was recorded in black and white and broadcast on a Copenhagen, Denmark, film. Since then, it has been loved by underground enthusiasts. However, when this sound source was discovered in the 1970s, it was a poor monaural recording, with an unusually loud mix of Carl Radl's bass and Rita Coolidge's vocals, and an almost off mix of Clapton and Harrison's guitars, even though it was a line recording. The audio was first leaked, and then after it was converted to analog boot, an incompletely recorded video with poor picture quality and poor audio was leaked, and enthusiasts have been grateful for the VHS that contained it for a long time. Even with such quality, maniacs were grateful and watched because they wanted to see them move on the luxurious stage where not only Clapton but also George Harrison and Billy Preston participated. In the 21st century, a high-quality full-stage video with a complete recording of the encore and an improved audio mix was finally discovered, and our store also released it on a press DVD. Just when I thought it was perfect, a wonderfully naturally colored color version appeared. Even enthusiasts who have been familiar with this video for a long time will be surprised by the quality when they watch it. Even with the same coloring video, the colors are very natural and don't give you any sense of discomfort, rather than the artificially colored feel of the Beatles' ``A HARD DAY'S NIGHT'' where you just tried coloring. The workmanship is perfect. Even enthusiasts can't ignore this! [List the sights! ! ] Now, let's randomly list the highlights of this video, including the colorization. There are so many that I can't write them all down. Coloring faithful to the stage costumes (looks) of all members at the time. Since there are multiple color photos from this day, even the curtains at the back of the stage have been faithfully colored based on them. In particular, the All Roses Telecaster that Delaney Bramlett plays was a gift from George Harrison, and it has the exact colors used in the "LET IT BE" sessions and captured in movies and photographs. Masu. Furthermore, the painting Strat famous for ``Magical Mystery Tour'' that George played has a natural finish that takes into account the faded colors of the TV film at the time. The shine of the silk shirt that Clapton wore under his vest is also very natural. Of course, there is nothing unnatural about the skin tone or hair color of the members' faces. Clapton only played the 3-mic Les Paul Custom for the four months between ``Live Peace in Toronto'' with John Lennon of this year and this Dela Boni European tour. It was a popular guitar at the time, even being used by Keith Richards, and when held by Clapton, it also has a very stylish shine. Clapton and George are now colored, making them even more cool! The handsome appearance of these two is sure to take everyone's breath away! It was a miracle that the two of them were standing side by side on stage, and the occasional shots of the two of them are dazzling. ...Now that I think about it, it was this friendship that made the Japan tour a reality 22 years later. Furthermore, in I Don't Know Why, Clapton, who was not yet confident in singing, sings wearing sunglasses to hide his shyness, and the way he occasionally looks at Delaney and smiles is a must-see. This scene also looks more realistic because it is in color. George will be performing live for the first time in three years since the Beatles performed at Candlestick Park in 1966. Seeing him having fun while playing overturns the image of him hating live performances. The color of Bonnie's wig is also natural. Because it's in color, her proprietary ``tambourine banging'' scene also stands out! If you think about it, the band personnel at this time were amazing, with Dela Boni and Rita Coolidge joining the horn section of what later became Derek and the Dominos + Stones. It is of course impossible that the TV station was aware of this, but by chance each member was clearly captured in the footage moving. Old rock fans will especially be fascinated by the dynamic appearance of drum master Jim Gordon and the young appearance of Bobby Keys, who later supported the Stones. The mix has been improved to the point where Clapton's guitar, which was previously completely inaudible, can now be heard (Raidle's bass sound has also been suppressed). Although there are some remnants of the previous biased mix, it will be a blessing if you can hear this much. Billy Preston, who was invited by George to suddenly join in, is also captured sitting on the electric piano. This is probably because Bobby Whitlock mainly played the organ. At the previously unrecorded encore, the audience will be all standing. The reflected audience seats are also colored in a very natural way. The TV station didn't seem to have expected this level of enthusiasm, and some of the shots look like audience shots, but the band, who were completely unknown in Europe, excited the audience so much and cheered them on. I can say that what I was exposed to was simply the power of their music. Their music had the muddy aspects typical of swamp, but also had pop hooks, and was supported by outstanding musicians. This is a video that clearly explains the moment when core American rock was accepted in Europe. [Historical video: Seeing is believing] Previously, it was a monochrome video that gave you a sense of the times, but now it is a natural color video. When you see the reborn version, your emotions will be renewed. 1969: “Rock music took a big turn.” Delaney and Bonnie were also the driving force. The Delaney and Bonnie era can be said to have laid the foundation for Clapton's career today. The band experience that led to his awakening to singing, his friendship with Harrison and Billy Preston, and the preparation for Derek and the Dominos. After this, Clapton's environment and the British rock world changed rapidly. The precious full-stage footage that captures that moment brings reality back to life through colorization. With this quality, it is recommended not only for enthusiasts but also for general rock fans. The content is wonderful and makes me want to thank them for preserving it, and the workmanship makes me want to praise them for making it so naturally colored.
