fenrik 36 Posted March 4, 2023 Share Posted March 4, 2023 4 hours ago, Thor said: The whole album is from the Oslo concert? I was there too, and it wasn't a very good experience, as you've probably read in my review awhile back. Partly to do with the terrible venue, partly an unruly audience and partly because there was too much recent stuff and too little of the pre-millennium stuff that is the reason Zimmer is one of my favourite composers (they only played LION KING of the the pre-millennium scores). No not the whole album. I asked in a Zimmer facebook group and the man himself replied that its from Oslo, Copenhagen and Stockholm + some tiny bits and pieces from other cities where/when something needed correction. Samurai is 100% from Oslo, as I can tell when looking at my own video from that night. And I know that youtube has automatically blocked my videos for PIRATES and INTERSTELLAR as it recognised the exact audio (whereas other videos from different cities is still up). I also know that a great video someone else filmed of LION KING has been taken down. So I'm quite certain that at least these are Oslo audios, but of course I dont know 100% for sure The rest is quite hard to compare as it mostly sounds the same on all nights I had a great experience from my seats (in the middle, on the floor), but I must have been lucky. Its extremly annoying when people (and usually young people who dont REALLY care about the artist) does that. This is not some disco-party type of concert! lol!

dyemery 4 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Who else thought that the No Time to Die live performance was amazingly gonzo? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bollemanneke 3,348 Posted March 5, 2023 Share Posted March 5, 2023 Um, what the hell happens at the end of the last pirates track? Is that normal? This mix sounds really, really off. Is this also the case on the physical disc? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fenrik 36 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Wow! I got this reply from someone over at hzDOTcom! This makes me a very happy man since its the date I attended! Always dreamed of having something professional (either audio or video) from a concert I went to in person! you'll be pleased to know it's 99% the Oslo concert with some overdubs. i.e. Loire's vocal in Gladiator is replaced with Lisa Gerrard (I'm guessing Lisa couldn't perform that evening? She also got Covid before the 2nd London show) . Guthrie's solo in MOS is also either re-done or taken from another performance. Lebo also has some notes corrected, and there's some judicious audio tweaks to bring the soloists forward into the mix (apart from Guthrie in TDK which is quite hidden).

JNHFan2000 2,961 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 Not be rude to Lisa Gerrard, but Loire Cotler's performance on Gladiator was magical when I saw it. Shame it's not on the album Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bollemanneke 3,348 Posted March 10, 2023 Share Posted March 10, 2023 I think most of the vocals in Gladiator are extremely annoying. Impecable singing, but out of place. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame it's not on the album I prefer Gerrard by a longshot. She has that Gladiator resolve that Cotler didn't have. And also, Cotler changed the lyrics too much for my liking.

fenrik 36 Posted March 14, 2023 Share Posted March 14, 2023 Just a heads up, the CD version does NOT have those few awkward fade outs between the split tracks inside the suites. They play 100% seamlessly! Guess I'm gonna have to use my CD rip instead of the digital version, lol! Trope 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crocodile 8,012 Posted March 18, 2023 Share Posted March 18, 2023 Got the CD album yesterday. It is actually probably the most enjoyable Zimmer compilation out there, the sheer majority of what's on it would be on my wish list. It's a lot of fun and the arrangements are better than the ones from his other live recordings. Wish I could go to the live gig but the tickets are way too bloody expensive.
