- Synopsis:
They were the prototype New Romantics - the group that looked as good as they sounded. But Spandau Ballet were built to last, surviving the eighties movement they'd helped create to conquer the world with their great songs and spectacular shows. The band's earliest gigs were exclusive, invitation-only affairs - soon they were playing to a worldwide audience. This video is your invitation to take a front-row seat at Birmingham's NEC as Spandau Ballet confirm their status as one of Britain's all-time greats. With 19 Top Fifty hits to their name, there's a classic every other song... like the chart-topping 'True' and Top Three smashes 'Gold', 'Chant No.1' and 'Only When You Leave'. Lush ballads like their comeback hit 'Through The Barricades' rub shoulders with funky floor-fillers like their first smash from 1980 'To Cut A Long Story Short'. Add great new songs like 'Raw', 'Matter of Time' and 'Motivator' and you've all the motivation you need to join the party. You can't improve on perfection... and to prove it, this stunning film features the original line up of Spandau Ballet. Drummer John Keeble lays down the dance beat, while the ever-versatile Steve Norman plays percussion, saxophone and more. The Kemp brothers, Gary and Martin of the filmstar looks, complete the picture - but despite their screen success, they're musicians first and foremost, as this performance proves beyond doubt. The hits have been memorable, the concerts classic.
