Olivia Newton-John in the 1970s left behind many treasured videos on the legendary music program "The Midnight Special." A superb compilation DVD using the superb master that is currently the talk of the town is now available. "The Midnight Special" was a late-night program that aired on NBC from August 1972 to March 1981. With many popular musicians and bands appearing, it has become more and more popular as a treasure trove of music archives as time goes on. Moreover, in 2024, "The Midnight Special" is once again in the spotlight. 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 the master owned by the original family, it is more beautiful than any master known so far. Of course, the lighting and set have a sense of the 1970s, but the freshness with zero deterioration is as beautiful as if 50 years had not existed. This work extracts only Olivia's appearance scenes from the latest master of "The Midnight Special". In addition, it is a compilation of ultimate quality that adds super-excellent scenes equivalent to the official master. This work contains 13 songs from 7 broadcasts. Let's introduce each one individually here. May 24, 1974 (3 songs) Let Me Be There / If You Love Me (Let Me Know) / If Not For You First up is 25-year-old Olivia, one month before the release of "LONG LIVE LOVE". This is the "May 1974" broadcast episode, in which she made her first appearance on "The Midnight Special". Although the footage is familiar to fans, this beauty is not unfamiliar. The latest version released on the official channel mentioned above depicts a youthful figure with the visual beauty of the master quality itself. This broadcast does not yet play new songs from "LONG LIVE LOVE", but selects three early hit singles. With John Farrar, who also participated in the album, she shows off her fresh singing voice. March 7, 1975 (5 songs) The Air That I Breathe / If You Love Me (Let Me Know) / You Ain't Got The Right / Have You Never Been Mellow / I Never Did Sing You A Love Song Next is the "March 1975" broadcast, which is also the main focus of this work. At that time, it was the month after the release of "HAVE YOU NEVER BEEN MELLOW", but this time it was also an "Olivia special episode" in which she also served as the program host and performed 5 songs. Here too, the visual beauty and number of songs are overwhelmingly official (or rather, since it is the official version of "The Midnight Special", "grade" may not be necessary), but not only the quantity but also the concentration is noteworthy. This is a must-see episode where you can enjoy rare songs that have no other live performance records, such as the new songs at the time, "I Never Did Sing You A Love Song" and "You Ain't Got The Right". June 13, 1975 (1 song) - Take Me Home, Country Road The third is the "June 13, 1975" broadcast, where she sings "Take Me Home, Country Roads". However, at that time, "CLEARLY LOVE" was completed, but the atmosphere is strange for that. Judging from the red neon set and hairstyle of "OLIVIA", it is said that it may be an outtake from the opening "May 24, 1974". January 16, 1976 (1 song) - Lovers The following "January 26, 1976" broadcast is bonus content. Although it is not the latest official master, it is a carefully selected and comparable superb master. This broadcast also features "OLIVIA" in red neon. However, this one has short hair and the timing of the recording seems to be different. Here, she sings "Lovers", which has almost no live record from "CLEARLY LOVE". July 25th/August 1st, 1980 (3 songs) Don't Cry For Me Argentina/Magic Finally, two videos from 1980, during the "XANADU" era, when a lot of time has passed. First, "Don't Cry For Me Argentina" from the "July 25th" broadcast, which was broadcast two days before the release of the soundtrack "XANADU". Although it is not included in this work, Olivia was informed during the recording of this day that "Magic" had reached number one in the United States. Next is the "August 1st" broadcast the week after she sang "Magic" and the "September 5th" broadcast one month later. The atmosphere has changed completely from the 70s, and her outfit of monochrome shorts and boots is fresh. In particular, the "August 1st" video was also included in the program's official DVD "MIDNIGHT SPECIAL 1980". This is a collection of treasured videos of 13 songs in total. Olivia in her 20s, revived by the original master of the original "The Midnight Special", is simply beautiful. This broadcast was a compilation-like composition in which various artists and bands competed with each other, but this work is filled with Olivia alone. It is the perfect companion for the gradually longer autumn nights. Multi-camera pro shots from her appearance on the legendary music program "The Midnight Special". It contains 7 episodes and 13 songs from 1974 during the "LONG LIVE LOVE" era to 1980 during the "XANADU" era, most of which are original master quality by the official channel of the "The Midnight Special" program. This is a collection of gems where you can meet Olivia in her beautiful 20s. 24th May 1974 1. Let Me Be There 2. If You Love Me Let Me Know 3. If Not For You 7th March 1975 4.
