How about Little Richard (who Jagger "borrowed" from) and a few rock gods - Plant, Daltry, Morrison, Hendrix and Mercury? Nope. James Brown and Otis are the only other ones that could come close.

Quote24FPSI'm happy with my Hampton DVD the way it is. Isn't all the LA Forum ('75) material videotape? Don't know but it was rare back then that a concert would be filmed rather than videotaped - because of cost. 99.8% of my concert DVD collection are concerts that have been videotaped...

Quote24FPS What's the big deal on whether something is videotape or film? I much prefer a good videotape image. It's more realistic. Well film is HD (and almost always widescreen) whereas videotape will only ever be SD. Blu Ray is no use for Standard Definition videotaped material.

QuotestoneheartedThe problem with that analogy is that the VU were groundbreaking, in that there was nothing like them before, whereas the Shadows were just another instrumental band whose name we know today primarily because they backed Cliff Richard Incorrect.

Quoteab The Shadows were huge in Europe, but almost unknown in the States. The Velvet Underground weren't big in Europe or in the States. Quite the opposite. Does this mean VU influenced no-one? You know the answer.
