The Midnight Special is a legendary American program that left behind many treasured videos. The Ike & Tina Turner special episode will be reprinted in the ultimate quality version. A special release has been decided. The Midnight Special was truly a legendary music program. It was a late-night program that aired on NBC from August 1972 to March 1981, broadcasting treasured videos of stars from the 70s. Combined with the unique content of the program, the archived videos are still considered treasures today, making it a masterpiece of music variety. Treasure videos from the 70s revived by the much-talked-about official excavation The biggest point is that they were mainly live performances. Speaking of music programs in the early 70s, mime was the norm. Live performances were a time when they were avoided because they were time-consuming to record, accidents were likely to occur, and it was difficult to predict the time. In such a situation, The Midnight Special gained popularity by focusing on the program's unique live performances. This point became more and more important as time went on, and a large amount of brilliant footage from the 70s was left behind. Although it is such a legendary program, it is actually back in the spotlight now, more than 50 years later. The reason for this is the discovery of the highest peak master. The official channel of the program has begun to release archive footage one after another. And the quality is shocking! As it is a master owned by the original owner, it is more beautiful than any master known so far. Of course, the lighting and set have a sense of the 70s, but the freshness is as beautiful as if 50 years had not existed with zero deterioration. Ike & Tina's famous hosting is also a highlight. Among such a topical excavation series, this work is "Episode 54" broadcast on "February 8, 1974". It is a DVD of the Ike & Tina Turner special episode. The hosts are Ike & Tina Turner, but other guests include FLASH CADILLAC & THE CONTINENTAL KIDS, ELO, Todd Rundgren, David Essex, etc. You can enjoy 15 precious live songs for about 68 minutes. The show is structured so that one song at a time is replaced, but here we will summarize it by band/artist. Ike & Tina Turner (4 songs) City Girl Country Boy / With A Little Help From My Friends / Proud Mary / I Smell Trouble First up is Ike & Tina Turner, who are also the main characters of this work. Speaking of Ike & Tina in 1974, "THE GOSPEL ACCORDING TO IKE & TINA" was nominated for a Grammy Award, but this work was broadcast two months before the album was released. At the same time, the production of the next work "SWEET RHODE ISLAND RED" had already started. If you have experienced the series, you will know how luxurious the hosts of this program are, but Ike & Tina are super stars in the lineup. In addition to performing a diverse repertoire, they will entertain you with their husband-and-wife comedy hosting. FLASH CADILLAC & THE CONTINENTAL KIDS (2 songs) Dancin' On A Saturday Night / Muleskinner Blues FLASH CADILLAC & THE CONTINENTAL KIDS are introduced by Ike & Tina. 1974 was the year of their second album, and at the time of this program, it had been half a year since the movie "American Graffiti" in which they appeared (it was not released in Japan until December). This work also features one representative song from each of their first two albums. ELECTRIC LIGHT ORCHESTRA (2 songs) Dawn of the Third World: Showdown / Bluebird Is Dead Among the performers in this work, ELO may be the one that is particularly familiar to our customers. At that time, they were three months after the release of "ON THE THIRD DAY", just when the production of "ELDORADO" had begun. They had not yet performed in full swing with an orchestra, and in this work, two songs from "ON THE THIRD DAY" are performed with the string members. Todd Rundgren (2 songs) Couldn't I Just Tell You? / The Dream Goes On Forever And the main character behind this work is Todd Rundgren. He also appeared in the simultaneous release of THE FOUR TOPS special episode (Episode 45), but this work was broadcast in the same month as "TODD" was released. He will also perform the new song "The Dream Goes On Forever". David Essex (2 songs) Rock Everything: Rock On / Streetfight David Essex, who also appeared in the THE GUESS WHO special episode (Episode 61) of this series, also appears (he appeared in this work first). About three months after the release of his debut album "ROCK ON", he also sings two songs from his first album here. Others (3 songs) ・ Jose Feliciano: I Like What You Give / Blame It On The Sun ・ MANDRILL: Git It All This program is famous for its wide range of performers, and Latin music also appears in this work. You can enjoy the Latin funk MANDRILL centered on Jose Feliciano from Puerto Rico and the Wilson brothers from Panama. This is a treasure collection of 15 songs by 7 groups. Although the popularity was beginning to fade, Ike & Tina Turner, who exudes a super-big aura, retro rock and roll, glam rock, progressive rock, Latin music, etc. It is about 68 minutes of special concentration that condenses the era of "1974" itself. Please enjoy it to the fullest with the best master of the official excavation. A legendary music program is released. This is a masterpiece that can be enjoyed by a variety of guests, including Ike & Tina, FLASH CADILLAC & THE CONTINENTAL KIDS, ELO, and more, as well as the superb original master published by the official channel.
