DVD Reviews of Live in Glasgow
DVD Review: As usual, New Order is great but...
Summary: 4 Stars
As usual, New Order performing live is great, but, like myself, they're starting to show their age... In any case, the music is great, and this DVD is a must for any New Order fan, especially now that it's very unlikely that the band will ever continue as it was...DVD Review: Defective Disc
Summary: 2 Stars
Great concert, even though it's similar to their last production, it's still worth it. The first DVD (Glasgow concert) must have been of poor quality as it froze up, skipped, froze up, skipped, etc, for the duration of the entire video. The second disc worked fine. I have a new DVD player and haven't experienced this with any other disc, and I've played plenty. I'm lazy and probably won't go through the time and process of returning it (especially after I assumed it would work and threw out the receipt and pacakging), but was disappointed in a defective disc being shipped to me. For New Order fans, as long as it works, def worth picking up.DVD Review: worth the price for disc 2 alone
Summary: 4 Stars
I'm endlessly fascinated with New Order. No matter how much you know about them and how many of their live shows you've seen there is always something lurking around the corner of New Order's vast cellar of history. The first concert I ever saw was New Order on their Technique tour back in May of 1989, and, quite frankly, it wasn't very good. They just looked annoyed with each other, and even more annoyed with the crowd. They probably were. Having said that, the second disc of this set is worth the price alone as it spans their most creative and inspiring decade (the 80's). The video of most of the early live stuff is rough and unexciting, but they sound so good it doesn't matter. To see them play tracks like Leave Me Alone, Everything's Gone Green, and Ultraviolence back when they were fresh out of the studio is yet another great and new experience as a New Order fan. They look awkward and apprehensive, but you can sense a palpable focus on the music, and a creative drive burning from their eyes. They look hungry, and it makes one yearn to see them in a intimate setting.
The first disc is ok, the light show is cool, they sound tight, and their bellies have never been more bloated. It sounds good on a loud 5.1 sound system, but honestly it's nothing we haven't seen before. I would love it if the original 80's shows were released in their entirety, regardless of the video quality. New Order have become one of the best bands of the past 25 years, and they deserve to have every one of their moments witnessed and cherished!
DVD Review: NEW ORDER IS GREAT LIVE
Summary: 4 Stars
This DVD is very good , with very good songs and great sounding band, the quality of the DVD is also very good also, it is a shame that New Order broke up but nothing good lasts forever,DVD Review: Finally, truly rare footage (on Disc 2)
Summary: 4 Stars
Like some fans I bought it mainly for the second disc with rare and unseen footage.
Yes, we are rewarded here with the eclectic repertoire from the first TV appearance in April 1981 (Celebration) to one of the final concerts in 2006. I had wanted the Celebration footage for years (you have a snippet of it in NewOrderStory) and it's great to have it finally. Then come Glastonbury shots, which are worth every cent you spend for this DVD. Apparently pissed or otherwise influenced Bernard Sumner is completely off the hook there, being enraged by the longhair audience, who is not ready for drum machines; in the meantime the cameraman, dazed too, is trying to tune his own sight: camera wanders unfocused on the floor, eerie wires and blurry knobs. Right before the concert some dude filmed Rob Gretton and the band getting out of their old Ford and camping around, which is amusing. Knowing "Barney" Sumner's personality and attitude, it's unbelievable that something like this officially saw the light of day (well no wonder, the entire project was carried mostly by bassist Peter Hook and drummer Steven Morris). After that the footage quality becomes less professional: like blue x-rays of a dancing body at a gay disco. Almost monochrome, shot from one stand, the footage has surprisingly great sound quality; "Hurt" and "Ultraviolence" are superb, although ONE BIG DOWN: the first 10 or so tracks lack basses! I had my subwoofer all the way up and still barely can get any low register.
The 2006 section is kinda out of place: disc 1 represents the band at their latest already (it'd been better then to use some of the January 2006 Manchester show consisting completely out of Joy Division songs, like "Warsaw", "24 Hours").
As for the concert in Glasgow, I was reluctant initially to buy it, had it not for disc 2. More or less it's the same type of concert that we could get on "316" (2001) and "511" (2004), with addition of "Waiting For The Sirens' Call" songs. The band apparently realizing this decided to embed their comments in between the tracks, which is a neat but underdeveloped idea here. The sound may be better than on "511", the true rarities are great "Shadowplay", "These Days" and "The Perfect Kiss", while turning "Love Will Tear Us Apart" into a whoping, crowd-chanted anthem makes you cringe. Ironically, when the band was making NewOrderStory back in 1993, they didn't give a hint of what was going on; this time, going separate ways again, the antagonism is clearly seen.
