Raspberries Live Arrived!

Today the CD/DVD finally arrrived and it certainly did not disappoint! I sat down and watched it and is it ever cool!

The Beatles best live recording was in Stockholm, Sweden at Sveriges Radio Studio at Karlsplan in October 1963. 5 of those cuts are on Anthology I. I really enjoyed listening to the Raspberries Armed Forces broadcast and interview and could not help but compare the two. Great interviews with all the band members and some great live cuts too! The shots of Europe from home movies was good as I had visited those same places just 5 months earlier in 1972.

I really enjoyed the concert and will listen to it many times in the future. Thanks so much for a job well done.

Phil,

Great to see that you received your cd package. We all knew that it would be a great recording. The live concert was amazing. I still have goose bumps! Was this the limited edition or an amazon? I am hoping that it was the limited edition as I would like to see/hear the one we prepaid for months ago. It would have been nice if the prepays received the cds a week or at least earlier than the regular release. Getting them after the general public release is a bit disapointing. But the good news is we will have an honest quality version of our fab four soon !

I live in Rockford, IL and it is the limited edition I ordered last Nov? for $134 including tax. My set is 61/300. So I am not sure I was the 61st set to order or they did it some other way? I really do like all of it. They home movies and Armed Forces Radio segment is quite a long one. It is very good. As I mentioned earlier, I had been on my only Europe trip just a few months previous and recognized some of the footage. It was eerie how the recording of the Berries live over there was so similar to that well reknown Beatle recording in Sweden in Oct. 1963 which was 10 years prior to the Berries recording. I went to pick up our daughter at Midway and it was a 95 mile trip one way and I listened to the concert on my CD player in the car. Very nice.....Have a great weekend.
