Wow cool man :)

I was born in 1976, but started to listen to MJ very early. And I remember when I heard MJ's Don't Stop Till You Get Enough song on TV for the first time, I didn't even have a video recorder. I put the radio-cassette's mic against the loudspeaker of the old TV set (black and white looool) in order to rip it off from TV looooooooooool :rofl: Can you imagine THAT quality of "DSTYGE" on my tape which before that had recorded many other songs. Now THAT was crap quality :rofl:

Unfortunately, they did something similar with "Michael Jackson's Vision." All 42 short films were "modernized" for widescreen televisions (read: the 4:3 videos were pillar boxed and the 16:9 videos zoomed in). The end result wasn't pretty.

Hopefully they've learned from that mistake.

Any song that will be removed will be a terrible loss on the Live CD.

But since not all can be there HH is not even a MJ song. - But then again, I would never remove J5 medley...

If they cut too much from the CD, you could always just rip the audio from the DVD and do that.
Thats how I have my Yokohama, Rome, and Tokyo MP3s :)

They are not cutting the concert - they will show it in FULL just as it is recorded on Michael's personal VHS Tape.
That has been stated in the announcement and on the product page for the DVD . Its will be intact.

We are referring to the audio CD with the live tracks. The whole show isn't going to fit on 1 cd.

Also For those asking why teh estate estate doesnt have BAD Tour footage. They didnt state anything like that.
They stated this is this is the only footage they have right now of the Royal Family performance on the 16th that
Fans requested. Not that they dont have any footage of other Wembley shows or other Bad concerts.

Well, if that's true, I'd be very disappointed at the Estate, 'cause MJ in HQ comes 1000x first then Diana, just saying...

Yes, it can. If I'm right, seventeen songs? That's just one more than 'Invincible' has. Of course, it depends on how large the files are. I have a two-and-a-half hr concert on one CD in HQ.
 
since its going to be single disc dvd, i prefer to have lpcm track over extra material. maybe 10-15min of extra, ok, but the audio should be lossless stereo like dangetous tour dvd. 5.1 mix could be nice too and fit also.

They'll probably just cut out the bad groove and chop of little parts of the other tracks. Then they might just be able to squeeze it on at a push, most of those tracks are only 4 min jobs.

I understand Of course we want the Best. And We all have our own opinions, needs and wants as far as this DVD goes.
It has nothign to do with Diana . Many Fans requested that concert for the performances.. They dont care care about whether Diana was sitting there or not._ they want that footage. Im certain we will get it in the BEST quality the Estate can offer.

Most fans will be very happy to get that concert on DVD and are not going to nit pic if its not bluray quality. I understand the limitations with this VHS footage and still want it as do many others. Plus the fact it is Michael's personla VHS makes it even more appealing. He must of liked that show. Im sure they will do more Concerts DVD's in the future for us becuase they know there is a huge demand now for that from the fans. I think it will only get better.

I forced my cousin who's of your age and who was into heavy metal to let me use his VCR so that I could play Moonwalker and record:

-Man In The Mirror Live
-Retrospective
-Badder
-Leave me alone (back then BAD had only 10 tracks)
-Smooth Criminal video version
-Come Together
-The Moon Is Walking (such an underrated and misunderstood song, it's beautiful!)

The TV was in color, but I had to use more or less the same procedure. So I put everything on a tape and made the cover myself. 25 years later I still have all that stuff despite the fact that war hit my country from 1992 to 1995. It survived :)


p.s. I am actually happy I didn't have youtube back then. Now that I know what it is like to be without youtube and with youtube, I see that I would have missed all the magic if I had had the youtube back then. Or Internet in general.

lolololol (sorry, i just had to laugh at this cute comment)

It's irrelevant of how many songs there are or file size in the case of standard AUDIO CDs.

80 minutes is the max.

wow that is an AMAZING story...and I am SOOO glad that your tape survived....that their is a miracle in itself..:hug:. I know what you mean about youtube. Its funny because I didn't even get to see the Thriller video until i was 15 we didnt have cable..so I had to wait until my step dad would get it for me from the video store....as a matter of fact what happened was ,,,if you rented 2 movies you got the 3rd one free.....and I through such a fit for him to rent that video for me that he finally did.....and man oh man....when i put that tape in the vcr...the magic began....I remember sitting in front of that tv on a hot summer June night watching Thriller over and over and over....they had to tell me after about 3 hours that it was late and that i had to turn it off and go to sleep. You are right with todays technology alot of the magic is sometimes lost...but I guess we have to move with the times and just be prepared for what it is comes up next..:)

Unless they use double surface of the CD the way they did with the DVD History II.

Of course BAD GROOVE is being cut. Never in a million years would that end up on a live album :)

They won't. The double sided disc was basically a novelty thing years ago.
It wasn't even really necessary for History Vol. 2. It could have all fit on the same side.

Madonnas CONFESSIONS TOUR and STICKY AND SWEET TOUR dvds had live albums, and they made cuts to the CD as well.

And even the press release says something on the lines of selections or something from the show.

Thriller was awesome! The first time I saw it was precisely at midnight on MTV in 1988. I was 12 years old.

Now regarding the times and moving on with it, I'd like to, but if the Estate releases a VHS quality on DVD in the Blu-Ray and 3-D technology era, I can't help but project myself into the past :D That's why I said, it's an upside down situation. It's almost as if on Youtube can find better things than where it should be -- in the hands of the officials. They seem to possess close to nothing which is an absurd situation.

Just thought of something. Go look at The Twilight Zone recent releases, a show that was filmed in the late '50s/early '60s. It was filmed with cameras that were not up to standards with the cameras Michael filmed the Wembley show in. It was remastered for current releases and looks fantastic! (Minus the bassy audio, which was slightly improved in current releases). Not sure if that is the exact case -- the original masters were used for TTZ rather than a VHS tape -- but still.
Click to expand...

TTZ was filmed with actual B&W film cameras which can pretty much match today's cameras, resolution-wise. I am not sure if Wembley was filmed with film or not but color camera's from the 80s were not as good as B&W camera's from the 60s.
