VARIOUS ARTISTS The 25th Anniversary of the Marquee Club DVD

FacebookTwitterEmailShare

In summer 1983, the Marquee Club in London held two days of celebration for its 25th anniversary. On this DVD are snapshots of those nights and the bands and artists who have played there.

The most poignant is the appearance of Alexis Korner with an all star band that included Bill Wyman and Charlie Watts. This was one of his final appearances, at a club where he recorded his r and b at the Marquee album in 1962.

Also appearing on the DVD are a rockier Status Quo and Welsh band Man, sitting alongside the New Orleans legend Dr John and 1960s pop star Dave Dee. This DVD encompasses all the styles of music you would find at the club, enhanced by reminiscences with some of
the artists.

…the footage is fine, with Welsh rockers Man putting in a powerful performance on C’Mon, while Nazareth rock out with an incendiary version of Joni Mitchell’s This Flight Tonight…

…this enjoyably dated film makes for good entertainment, being informative of period, revealing of participating artists and (albeit unintentionally) amusing.

…it is great to revisit the history of a legendary club where bands plied their trade to become great live acts…
