Live At The Royal Albert Hall 2006

I've only just seen this, and although the video footage is understandably from phones over a decade old, the audio - and the vocals in particular - are really, really fuc---g good! Very grateful to the person who put this together (Adje?). To me, the vocals are a pleasure to listen to here.

If you haven't seen it, it's out there.

To those who have: what do you think?

Dude, that was a burden to create. Most of the footage were 20 to 40 second clips that needed to be edited together. I spent weeks on that show!

Although I take credit for putting this together, it's manly a bunch of fans who sent me their clips after I asked for it on my website. Thanks to them I was able to put together the 80 minutes

And I agree, eventhough some of the video footage is bad (audio is from one source though) there are also a huge amount of very clear video shots (especially for it's time). Even by this footage there is no denying that this was a special night!

I want to see!

Well, it definitely gets my vote. Thought it was an incredibly well put together video - must've taken you hours to get through! Glad I got a chance to see it.

The vocals are really tight for 2006, and Meat still has that great timbre to his voice which, for me, really defines the 'Meat Loaf sound'.

Remember I saw the poster on internet. Which was the inspiration for a possible DVD artwork cover (The cover was actually created before I started planning on creating that concert footage. I changed the backside a little after there was actually a concert to be shown)

Anyway I agree. Meat clearly has a big amount of fun. He has always claimed this to be one of his 3 most favorite shows. And clearly so

ThatWriterGuy · 04 Nov 2015, 18:32

And at the 36 minute mark Bad For Good sounds fantastic. The camera quality here is great for the year; you can really see how into Meat is. He really looks like he's ENJOYING himself. Fantastic video. If only this was the gig that got recorded for DVD release!

It was sort of a jigsaw puzzle. I remember I got frustrated with all those 30 second clips of a chorus (figuring out when it belonged in a certain song wasn't always easy

)

I have done better editing work though (LAB comes to mind and Hang Cool) but this one has given me most satisfaction. I was not there but putting this together I realised what I actually have been missing... Envy the folks who witnessed it live

Agreed. The second part also is almost complete. Most gaps are in the first part of the show (first 25 minutes of the concert footage). But all over you can tell how much fun it was for Meat and the band.

It also has the infamous 'Brad Pitt call' sketch in Paradise. Meat seems to love that part. I know he has mentioned it on this board a few times

ThatWriterGuy · 04 Nov 2015, 18:46

It really is a great gig. Meat's in pitch, and 'in character', and in fine form vocally. Every time I come across one of those clips that get posted from recent gigs, I've always got my fingers crossed that it's going to be like this.

something from this show, rather sizable, will be revealed in the future..... all i can say

Heh, well I know that he hadn't recorded 'California Isn't Big Enough' at that point then, so I think we're all safe

All you can say? By who's token? Who's going around telling you what you can and can't say about bootlegs?

Before putting this together I had a conversation with a guy (I think Evil pointed him out) who was responsible for the audio system of the orchestra. He filmed parts of this and another show of Meat where they used this system. He told me he was only allowed to film so many minutes of the show and not to tape an entire song. He didn't know if somebody else was allowed to make a proffesional recording but he only got a small amount of footage which was used in a promo clip they made. I always wondered if there was more proffesional footage of this

If you subscribe to Wario's channel and my channel, combined you get about every decent boot that is out there except for the ones Meat really doesn't want us to share

ThatWriterGuy · 04 Nov 2015, 21:19

I've got to ask: are there any more that are this good out there???

Thank you Adje - I was so excited watching this - I was there and it is the best concert I have ever been to. Absolutely outstanding. This video brings back so many amazing memories.

Thank you Adje (I know I already said it but I can't thank you enough).

stretch37 · 04 Nov 2015, 23:12

He really is amazing, and has done wonderful, hard work for all Meat Loaf fans compiling stuff like this. Hats off you you Adje
