Kate Bush's classic videos that have been left behind in history. Among them, two particularly masterpieces are now available in the highest quality. Kate's video work is a blind spot in the popular music world. Although she is not only a diva who has left a great mark, but also an innovative presence both in terms of performance and visuals, her many masterpiece videos have not been made into DVDs at all. So much time has passed that the grieving feeling faded away. The most coveted masterpieces are ``LIVE AT HAMMERSMITH ODEON'', which tells about her only tour, and ``THE WHOLE STORY'', which is the best album to watch with your eyes. This work is a reprint DVD of these two works from the Japanese version laser disc, which is known as the highest quality. It is a coupled two-disc set. Its quality is truly the highest. Our store has archived many masterpiece laser discs on DVD, and this work is one of them. We borrowed the mint quality discs that were treasured by core collectors and outsourced them to an overseas manufacturer specializing in analog video. It is precisely digitized in a high-end environment for professional use. The visual beauty has been proven in previous works, but this work has further accumulated achievements. What is depicted with that quality is truly a “live album that you can see with your eyes” and a “moving best album”. Let's introduce each one individually. [LIVE AT HAMMERSMITH ODEON (1981)] The first disc is a video of her concert tour, “THE TOUR OF LIFE,” which she performed only once in history. This is a multi-camera professional shot of "May 13, 1979 London Performance". The complete bootleg version has also been leaked, and professional shots of the Manchester performance have also appeared (you can enjoy them at our store's "MANCHESTER APOLLO 1979 (Wardour-355)"). The official version, which is just under an hour long, feels like it has served its purpose, but it still feels nostalgic. The elegance created by the combination of official image quality and effects that create a sense of fantasy is exquisite. It's not just a record, but an aesthetically pleasing piece of video art. Of course, more than the visual beauty is the performance itself. The costumes, dancers, and production completely change the world view with each song, and the staging, which also incorporates pantomime, is truly art. It is a unique world that is both a concert live and a performing art. As mentioned above, it is not a full show, but the set that compresses "THE KICK INSIDE" and "LIONHEART" is special. Finally, let's organize the selection.・Angel and the Devil (7 songs): Moving/Them Heavy People/Strange Phenomena/Feel It/Kite/James and the Cold Gun/Wuthering Heights ・Lionheart (4 songs): Hammer Horror/Don't Push Your Foot On the Heartbrake/Wow/Oh England My Lionheart・Demonogatari (1 song): Violin [THE WHOLE STORY (1987)] If “LIVE AT HAMMERSMITH ODEON” is a video version of the live album, this is the best version video ification. This video edition has the same title as the Greatest Hits ``THE WHOLE STORY'', and is Kate's visual history with a collection of many masterpiece clips. The expressive power of the clip, which can freely use all kinds of video technology, is naturally better than that of the stage. Kate's unique worldview will be depicted in an even more artistic way. Also, speaking of her clip collection, there is also "THE SINGLE FILE", but this work is a later release and has a wider range. Since they are not in chronological order, let's compare and organize the recorded songs here.・Angel and Little Devil (2 songs): Wuthering Heights/The Man With The Child In His Eyes・Lion Heart (1 song): Wow・Demonogatari (3 songs): Breathing / Army Dreamers / Babooshka ・Dreaming (2 songs): Sat In Your Lap / The Dreaming ・Shape of love (4 songs): Cloudbusting (★) / Hounds Of Love (★) / Running Up That Hill (★) / The Big Sky (★) / Kate Bush Story (1 song): Experiment IV (★) *Note: Songs marked with "★" are not available in the official video collection "THE SINGLE FILE" . The above is the definitive video set of the ``visual live album'' and the ``moving best album''. The highest level of visual beauty was achieved because Japan was sensitive to new media, and the freshness was only possible because of laser discs. This is a two-disc set that maximizes its potential and transfers it to DVD. A masterpiece that will turn the upcoming Christmas and New Year holidays into a rich music season.
