DTJ80 Posted January 11, 2019 Share Posted January 11, 2019 Does anyone have the Ritz 88 gig on vinyl or know which version out there is the best? There seems to be a few however most have an incomplete track list. The New York New York vinyl has good sound I gather. Why on earth this hasn’t been released officially is utterly bizarre.

It would be so easy for them to do and they could have done it to coincide with the Appetite Box Set.. I would LOVE a remastered, completely unedited version of this complete show on Blu Ray.. Now that the tour has died down I hope that they are working behind the scenes to get us some vintage stuff out there for us. For a band this big, they really haven't released squat from the classic era. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely the masters must still be at MTV somewhere - or better still, the actual recordings by Westwood used for the radio broadcast. Totally agree there is so little official live material of this time. 99% of bands churn out stuff most folk could do without but GNR seem to hold back where there is a genuine ‘appetite.....’ for it. Literally - people willingly to part with cash to get stuff and yet nothing!!!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think it was stated that during the Appetite Remaster Listening party Fernando hosted that they wee airing the RITZ show on video. I also believe it was unedited. Not 100% on that though.

megaguns1982 Posted January 12, 2019 Share Posted January 12, 2019 Personally I’d much rather a few live concerts from the 87-88 era in high quality video than the remastered afd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought so too but I have yet to find an LP that's uncensored, which is a bummer. I love the sound of mine but it's annoying it's censored. At least it just drops out though, it's not the super annoying BLEEEEEEEEP sound that I've heard on other versions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BadApples99 Posted January 15, 2019 Share Posted January 15, 2019 I don't think there's a version on which the speech before out ta get me isn't censored? All versions have the word "shit" edited in. And "fuck off" in it's so easy is also removed in every release? You damn Americans censor every bad word 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually bought a 15 dollar tape head cleaner on amazon last to cut down the chance if them getting eaten while I listen to them lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
