dalsh327 Posted June 28, 2013 Share Posted June 28, 2013 Iron Mountain is a huge storage facility that has multiple locations. Westwood One used to syndicate Dr Demento and King Biscuit Flower Hour to thousands of stations. I had seen a copy of GNR at the Ritz with the Westwood One Radio Concert cover in the past - the Ritz concert was aired (and edited) for radio in 88-90. Rebo & Associates tells me they hired a video production team and wasn't MTV, because Viacom would have been mentioned. The crowd was probably told the concert was going to be on MTV. The question of who owns the source tape - it's probably in the band's possession. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gibbo Posted January 31, 2014 Share Posted January 31, 2014 (edited) Someone should contact Alan Niven and ask him if the Ritz 88 show was filmed and if so, who has the master reels.I think Axl would even be in support of Ritz 88 coming out on Blu Ray.
