Rock / Art Rock / Prog Rock / Alternative Rock Peter Gabriel's Grammy Award winning film Secret World Live has now been newly restored
and remastered from the original film to be seen and heard in the best
possible quality on Blu-ray for the first time. Filmed in Modena, Italy
across two nights in November 1993 as part of Peter Gabriel's acclaimed
Secret World Live tour in support of the Us album, the show is
elaborately presented and choreographed with two stages joined by a
narrow pier. Peter Gabriel has always been a charismatic live performer
with the ability to draw his audience into the onstage world he has
created and rarely has this been better captured than on Secret World
Live.
Remixed and remastered Stereo, Dolby 5:1, and DTS Soundtracks. Digitally restored
and remastered from the original 16mm timelapse film of the stage set up
in Berlin, Germany.
The making of Peter gabriel's Secret World Live Flm which includes exclusive video interviews and behind the scenes footage. Peter Gabriel Secret World Live is presented on Blu-ray courtesy of Eagle Vision (a
division of Eagle Rock Entertainment) with an AVC encoded 1080i transfer
in 1.78:1. The liner notes for this release contain the following
information:
The original 16mm film negatives were repaired/cleaned and scanned (at
super 2K) to a file sequence for mastering and restoration. The 2K
sequence is the resolution we view in cinemas, and as such, the concert
is now available in high definition without comprosmise. Once scanned,
the footage was digitally restored and graded (by award winning
colourist Ray King) to allow fans to view the concert as never been seen
before.
The one salient piece of information in that quote is 16mm. No matter
how much restoration and digital tweaking is done to particular source
elements, there's only so much information available in the source
elements themselves, and let's face it, 16mm isn't exactly a reference
quality format (even if some 16mm material pops relatively well in high
definition). So fans must come to this outing with appropriate
expectations. Those expectations should include foreknowledge that a lot
of this concert is incredibly soft, to the point where midrange shots
are little more than fuzzy blurs of color. Close-ups do reasonably well,
but even those lack the level of fine object detail that we've come to
expect from more recent contemporary concert footage. Colors are also
decently robust and contrast is at acceptable levels, but this is
certainly not going to set any videophile's heart on fire, no matter how
much laudable restoration was done to get it to this condition.
Peter Gabriel Secret World Live features both a lossless DTS-HD Master Audio 5.1
surround mix as well as an uncompressed LPCM 2.0 stereo fold down. While
fidelity is exceptional on both of these offerings, what may strike
some listeners as at least a little surprising is how sparse, even
spacious, these arrangements are. Much like the general performance
ethos here, there's nothing that assaults the listener, no huge effects,
no massed instruments, just carefully layered lines and (especially)
percussion, aspects that would come to define Gabriel's increasing
importance in World Music. The 5.1 mix nicely separates the players and
keeps the crowd noises anchored to the rear channels, where they hardly
ever intrude to the point of distraction. The mix itself is very well
handled, with Gabriel's slightly raspy vocals out front, followed by
Cole's ethereal contributions and then backed up by the stellar
instrumentalists.
