More than You Deserve  - 1974

Comments: Historic recording of the first time Steinman worked with Meat Loaf in this musical set in a US Army camp during the Vietnam War. Sounds like this is from a live performance rather than demos as there's clearly an audience there. Sound is good, mono quality, but with some crackles. which, given it has been compressed down to 32kbps is remarkable.

Line Up: Fred Gwynne as Major Michael Dillon, Meat Loaf as Perrine / Rabbit, Kimberley Farr as Fiona Markham, Leata Galloway as Nurse / Nin Hua, Marybeth Hurt as Nurse / Uncle Remus, Stephen Collins as Nathan / Herbie / Pilot, Grahan Jarvis as Dr. Smith / Sergeant Price, Seth Allen as Luke / Lance Moriarty, Larry Marshall as Mike / Brown / Gerald Moore, Kim Milford as Wiley / Trout , Tom Leo as Owlsy / Joe, Edward Zang as Costucci/Lt. Maddox , Justin Ross as Spooky 1 / Vietnamese, Eivie McGehee as Spooky 2 / Vietnamese/Radio Man, Terry Kiser as Melvin, Ronald Silver as General Chet Eastacre

Tech Details: PAL, Full screen / 4:3, Dolby Digital, Authored, Song Chapters,
Comments: Great studio concert with Meat and the band playing just for the cameras (there's no audience) so there's little talking, just great music. although that does make the 'teasing' between Meat and Patti during "Paradise..." a little strange. Taken from the Dutch TV broadcast and includes a small logo in the top right corner. Sound and picture are perfect. Bonus video comes from a US TV show and again is a live TV show performance but with an audience

Comments: Brilliant audience recording of an outstanding 2-and-half-hour show. with Meat clearly having a ball, messing around during the spoken intro 

to "Two out of three..." and calling for the band to play and sing,  the great cover versions that take up most of disc three from the Rolling Stones, Eagles, and Joan Jett. even if the band aren't entirely sure, how they go!!!
