The rare video of George Harrison, which is becoming a hot topic, is now available on DVD! Although there is officially filmed footage of the North American tour he conducted in 1974, there is no sign of it being released yet due to the fact that it was badly criticized by George himself. On the other hand, some of the footage shot on 8mm film from the audience seats was incredibly close-up, and was still watchable even at today's standards. A typical example of this is the 8mm footage from Atlanta and Chicago stadiums, which can still be easily viewed on YouTube. However, it is also true that they are very fragmentary. However, last week, a new 8mm video suddenly appeared on YouTube, and it was a shocking video that lightly dismissed all of that. That was captured on the stage in Detroit on December 4th. Two shows were held on this day, but this video captures the first show. First of all, the angle is so great that it easily surpasses the aforementioned Atlanta and Chicago. What is even more noteworthy is the superb image quality. It was transferred there using today's latest technology, so it looks like it was filmed for news. It is sure to captivate your eyes with its clarity, which is almost like an illusion. In fact, both the angle and the image quality are so good that you can clearly see that George was wearing a shirt with a portrait of George himself under his jacket that was sold at the Atlanta venue and was said to be his favorite. . Also, speaking of the 1974 tour, I have a strong impression of George's flashy fashion as shown in the photos left behind, but on this day, he was wearing a dungaree shirt over the Atlanta shirt, which was a good tour. The unique and simple appearance leaves a striking impression on those who see it. In this way, the image quality and angle alone are enough to make the video worth watching, but what sets it apart from past videos is the recording time of 30 minutes. Just by looking at the appearance of George who decides the slide guitar in “Hari’s On Tour (Express)” which is the opening number of this tour, you will be reminded of how good this video is and how valuable it is. Most of the videos that have been circulating so far have captured the first half of the live performance, but this video is great because it captures the second half of the live performance even though it is a digest. In "For You Blue", the scene where George solos to Robben Ford and Willie Weeks is properly captured, and you can't help but lean forward when you watch it. The ultimate thing is that George can now be seen singing “In My Life”, which he covered on this tour. That alone should bring tears of joy to enthusiasts. What's more, it even captures a scene where George plays the then-new song "Maya Love," in which George plays slide guitar on the psychedelic-painted Stratocaster he had used since his Beatles days. I'm also moved by the fact that I can see it. And when the video originally appeared on YouTube, it looked like 8mm and had no sound, but a few days later another enthusiast released a synchronized version of the audience recording from the same day, and it suddenly became easier to watch. However, only George's songs were recorded on the same day, so the soundboard recordings of Shankar Family's "Dispute & Violence" and LA Express's "Tom Cat" were made at the LA Forum in November. Although it has been dubbing, it doesn't feel out of place since it's just an instrumental. Furthermore, regarding Billy Preston's two songs, the audience recording of Toronto, which was the next show after Detroit, is covered, and this also fits naturally with the video. In this way, the video, which boasts incredible quality as an audience shot, has been further upgraded, and it has become a finish that can be watched as a live movie of George ’74. This is a rare video mirror of George's legendary tour, for which visual materials have been limited until now! Olympia Stadium, Detroit, MI, USA 4th December 1974 (1st Show) 1.
