PIZZA OF DEATH Video Anthology [DVD]
PVを集めたDVDです。
ライブ映像ではないです。
しかし、KEN YOKOYAMAらしい仕上がりで、
DVDのタイトルメニュー画面では、すべてのバンドの代表者が集合写真みたいに映っています。
初めは「ALL PLAY」しか選べないと思っていたら、リモコンキーの縦横をたまたま間違えて押したら、各バンドを選んで聴くことができるようになっていて、驚きでした。
また、そのバンドを選び決定を押すと、そのバンド代表者以外の他のバンドメンバーが退散していく、といった少々手の込んだ演出もあり。
映像再生が終わると、また他のメンバーが戻ってくる、と。
遊び心が入りつつも、PVはすげーかっこいいです！
UPPERのPV見てて、かっこよすぎて感動してしまいました。
レーベル好きにはたまらない一品ですね。

アルバム発売当時、AC/DCの名前は耳にしてたものの曲を聴いたことが無かった。どちらかというと泥臭いロックンロールバンドという印象だったからだ。
しかし、ある日Thunderstruckがラジオで流れ、正直やられた！と思った。
1. ありそうでなかった、モダンで前衛的なリフ
2. 「あああ、あーああーああ」という沸き起こる合唱
3. 「Thunder！」という雄叫び
この３つで、完全ノックアウトされた。
ライブは見たこと無いけど、このイントロと合唱で盛り上がることは間違いないだろう。
他の曲はThunderstruckにかすれてしまっているような気がするが、AC/DCを知る上でいい契機になると思う。
剃刀の刃 [DVD]
In 1946 this movie won the Academy award for best supporting actress "Anne Baxter.” There is an all star cast including Tyrone Power and Gene Tierney. With all the star power the actors did not outshine the characters they were portraying. I will always think that Somerset Maugham looks like Herbert Marshall.
The screenplay by Lamar Trotti stuck close to the book by the same name and message of W. Somerset Maugham. A few adventures were compressed and maybe an improvement as far as this media goes. Tyrone Power ...Larry Darrell did get to do some things that were acts of W. Somerset Maugham in the book and it was difficult to imagine Gene Tierney ...Isabel Bradley was supposed to be a pudgy child.
Over all this is a story of different people from different backgrounds and how they deal with adversity. The main character has to figure out in his mind, why someone else had to die to save his life at the very end of the war? In the process of looking he goes to India and seeks help in understanding the way the world works. There alone in the mountains on the edge of dawn he has a revelation. He now must go back to the world and apply what he has learned.
Does he figure it out his dilemma?
