Ian Dury/Rockpalast 1978 & BBC 1999

ROCKPALAST, which appeared in IAN DURY's best and best period in 1978, has been released. Listening to them on records and CDs is great, but IAN DURY's stage performance needs to be seen on video! The way he strongly attracts viewers, his last-minute actions that could be called ``eccentric behavior'' if he makes a mistake, are visually reminiscent of ``punk.'' As for the sound, the groovy and aggressive black orthodox sound that makes bands of the same generation seem like children is also unique to the technical group BLOCKHEADS. The bonus BBC documentary that aired in 1999 is very good, with plenty of footage from his heyday as well as interviews with him in his later years. The highlight is probably the performance scene from the pub days of the legendary band "KILLBURN AND THE HIGH - ROADS" that he was a member of in the past! Although they only released one album, they became a bridge with punk and had a huge influence on the scene. You can't see videos of them anywhere else! The recording time is 90 minutes with professional specifications with menu chapters.
