Kids, I am sixty. I saw this show when I was 17. I remember every single word and gesture and I thought Karla DeVito was God. Spent two weeks looking for a white bodysuit. Today hubs put this on, and I sang along to every word. It was more than 40 years ago. Some things are beyond time.

I am still but a child. I love his music so much and I’m so saddened by his death. I remember crying on Friday when I found out at school. I hate that I never or never will be able to go see him. 🙌🏻
Once in traning for a cross country run I would walk to two tracks on the ipod and then run for one, after two brisk walks I got a live version of this! I ran to all of it and enjoyed every minute of it! That was 14 years ago, I still love the tracks but my running days are over, how Meatloaf performed like he did for as long as he dis was amazing
RIP big man.You made this little girl so much happier while having to cope with an abusive stepfather.The angels are now rocking out to you.Long live rock and roll!

The summer of 1978 was the summer before I graduated from high school. I saw Springsteen six times and Meatloaf once. Bat Out Of Hell, Darkness On The Edge Of Town and The Stranger were my soundtrack. It was a wonderful time to be alive.
Summer of 78 I was 10 years old, going out with Amy Bomber at Emerson Country Club in New Jersey. She was truly beautiful and though I don't think I ever even held her hand it was like Magic that we were "going out" Meatloaf was the Soundtrack of that Summer. Still love him, and now miss him.
@@jordanross9828 I only got to see Harry Chapin just a few days before he died in a truck collision. I am also a high graduate from the class of 1979 and should have attended upstate NY concerts like this at that formative age. I am amazed at their retention of lyrics, and stage awareness and their endurance. Eclectic people, but truly performers.
This was before their falling out. After Meat became ill and unable to perform, Steinman decided to perform the songs himself. As the writer, I suppose he could do that but it didn't go over well at all. Creative egos got in the way of friendship between the two. Sort of a Simon & Garfunkel thing.
@@anitanash6780 Bad For Good is still a great album, and they've made up since. I don't think there was ever some big disagreement. Meat just wasn't taking care of his voice and couldn't go for another record. Steinman was looking for a chance to be branded on his own in the 70s anyway. I very much like Bad For Good and other things that Steinman put together aside from this, like Pandora's Box. Great albums.
@@searchthenight I worked on the tours supporting Deadringer and Bad attitude.. as for the fall out with Jim it was about the fact that Meat had destroyed his voice doing the live thing and the ensuing fallout. Bad for good was supposed to be Meats album and he did indeed record some b4g tracks when they eventually reunited in the 90s.. I always Can't help but think about Meat singing some of the steinman/Tyler tracks too.. his songs with Jim are pretty much his best work although there are a few great non Jim and Meat tracks down the years.
One of a kind. From an alcoholic, abusive father and the loss of his mother at a young age, came forth this force of nature. Instead of perishing in the childhood chaos, he rose up to the heights. Not all do. BRAVO MEAT LOAF.
Our man was prepared to die to give everything he had into this performance. Absolute legend. Thanks Meat for your energy and music. Thanks Jim for your songs. Thanks Karla, Bob, Bruce, and all the rest. This was an incredibly ambitious concert and the world is indebted to you.
@ Justin Case: Yes in the time of no mobile phones, social media, hype, auto tune etc. A simpler time when true talent won out & was appreciated. R.i.p big man with a huge heart
you might like this podcast i just listened to about meatloaf. i had never listened to meatloaf until i heard it and now im a fan! its called The Rejection Podcast, episode is called Bat Out of Hell
His songs will forever endure as a testament to the GREAT times and great memories of my youth for neither can exist without Meatloaf and Bat out of Hell. God's speed my friend the world lost a legend today.
I, too, had to put headphones to hear carefully this masterpiece. On the "Nothing made like this again" subject ... the way this world is going, I doubt that will have any
Im 34. Meatloaf was before my time. But its comments like that that make me love music. The power to transport you back to your teen years is a magic that cant be overstated. Much love from a different time and place.
Perhaps now that we have lost this unique and dynamic artist, the music world will acknowledge him finally as one of the greatest rock entertainers of all time. He poured his heart and soul into everything that he sang, and the music of Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf will be with us for all time, like all truly great art. God rest his soul after an incredible life and huge contribution to popular culture.🙏👌🎤🎸🎶
It took a hell of a lot for a 330 lb guy to run all over the stage during a concert. He always gave 110% of what he had ,even when he didn't have as much to give in later years. What a true performer !
Just watched it one more time, 45 years on from the wide-eyed wonder of the first time around. RIP MeatLoaf, you were one of the true greats. There were ups and there were downs, but what a ride. Thank you.
Bat Out of Hell brings me right back to ‘77-‘78, playing this masterpiece record over and over again in my room. Greatest record in rock history. RIP Meatloaf 👊🏻
I hope you and Jim are shooting with the stars and flying with the angels. I'll miss you Meat. You have been my favorite since I was 9 years old, 26 years ago. When I first heard "I'd do anything for love", it was love at first listen.
Great to see Bob Kulick and Bruce Kulick playing together as far as I know they did not play on the album but they did play on the tour together and will miss you Meatloaf. My family had meatloaf in honor of his passing will all miss you and will miss you Bob
Saw him 1988 in Graz, Vienna. He was nearly forgotten, Bat out of hell 2 was not out yet. About a couple of hundred people in a small venue. I‘ve seen the Stones, U2, Pearl Jam, etc. But: this was the greatest experience of my concert life!
Habe in mehr als 4 Jahrzehnten auch schon mehrere tausend live Konzerte + Events gesehen und gehört - für mich auch definitiv sehr weit vorne. Grüße aus dem Ennstal!
Begged my mom to buy this album for me. We were at Zayres in Cleveland and she was reluctant mainly due to the price ($5.49). Thank you mom for giving in. The soundtrack of my youth. Thanks for sharing.
Thank you for sharing. I snagged this along with a cross section of 60s/70s/80s LP’s from my moms record collection in 1989 age 14. Beginning a lifelong trip into music and records. Those early classic albums grew into 400+ which I share with my son and daughter.
SHOUTOUT TO KARLA DE VITO! Meat Loaf and Jim Steinman on one stage! Amazing! I love them! Truly Epic. Amazing... This is Rock N Roll......Anything goes.
Heartbroken that you've gone. You can never ever be replaced, one of a kind. We wanted you, we needed you and we loved you, three out three after all.. Rest in paradise legend 😭
@@musicfanhawk4523 The one where you can watch this psycho go off on people, or read about his obnoxious comments. Real sorry to burst your bubble, this guy didn't have a great deal of people who respected him, and he even embarrassed his own kids with his behavior as well. So, in response to your obscure comment. I live on the planet where you can look that shit up, REAL EASY!! 😂 LOL
@@mikelachey824 wow sounds like you were personally offended for some reason. I guess you should look up all the thousands of people that have commented about his passing, not a SINGLE bad word by anyone in the music industry, theater or movies so how does that happen if he was a douchebag as you say? Your comment was out of line, and you can have your opinion .
Jim and ML produced some of the most timeless anthems of all time. Can’t say we will still be listening to some current artists in a years time never mind in Forty plus years time. RIP both of you. You will live on forever in your music❤️
I may only be 21 but my dad and mom grew up and fell in love to meatloaf and passed that love onto myself and my siblings from the iconic BOOH musical and his songs, forever rocking to this legend RIP
Such a brutal, brutal song for one man to carry. Bat out of hell. Vicious. And thats just the first 14 minutes. I'm certain no other man in history could have delivered this insane album live like Meat Loaf did. Jim Steinman created a timeless masterpiece which only Meat Loaf could have ever bought to life. Remarkable. Meant to be. Rest well big man, you've earned it.
Paradise by the dashboard lights. I deflowered my 1st girlfriend to that song. In the back of my 1972 Chevy Impala. In a pouring rain storm on a lonely New England dirt road. The entire night was magical listening to Meatloaf on my 8 track player. We made sweet love all night, with 1970's songs playing on the mix track tape. Oh God the good times.
This is a magnificent performance with wonderful musicians and some of the most powerful Rock and Roll sounds and lyrics ever. Meat Loaf is and was a Master performer and Rock and Roll singer and virtually invented American Rock and Roll opera. I miss him already.
It cant be said about many, but Meat Loaf was truly a one off, damn near his own genre. Will be sadly missed, thank you for all the memories R.I.P. Sir 💐
I was only 1 year old when this concert was taking place. Bat out of hell 2 came out when I was in HS and I absolutely fell in love with the music this man did. I've been a musician my whole life and have alot of respect for the genius musicianship he played. Has feeling, emotion, and soul like no other band I've ever seen. RIP and TY for the memories
200 concerts in less than a year. You can hear the damage it did to Meat Loaf's voice. He was never the same singer again. He gave 10,000% of everything he had. RIP.
Amazing how many years have gone by and how fast I'm back in 81' with all the feelings I felt listening to meat loaf the first time. Damn his passion makes hair on the back of neck stand up.
RIP Meat, can't believe the news, our son is 16 and a competitive swimmer he listens to your full length tracks when training gets him in the zone he like many others is heartbroken your music your memory will live on God bless you and condolences to family and friends xxxx
I was six years old then so could not have seen it live... but I wish I had been able to. Still glad it is here so I can see it even though I could not be there. Love Meat Loaf. Happy Birthday to Meat Loaf. - Heidi
The amount of energy and emotion this man channelled was phenomenal, it transenfed from a mere rock concert into a Rock Opera!! But let's not forget his band all who put there 110 % to create this spectical like no other. Thank you all for giving us something to hold on to an cherish for all times!! God bless you all.. Meat and Jim Rest in Peace
Yes the seventies were magical. So were the fifties and sixties. Look at the crap the kids inherited from us. Nuclear war is a real possibility. Our leaders (all if them Regan, Clinton, Nixon, Carter, all if them sold out for the $$$$. Our OLIGARCHS (rich) are going to run to their Bunkers, while we are reduced to radioactive ash. MEAT LOAF is among the Lucky one's, no longer on this EARTH to face the consequences of the final count down. You and I and millions more were the lucky ones to have been born in a time frame that allowed us to have a "pursuit of happiness, as outlined in the Constitution. No more.
Meatloaf brought class to rock music 43 million sold from bat out of hell alone the drama the many different arrangements made this show last forever Rest in peace and thanks for your great work ✨🙏
My hubby met Meatloaf in the 80's.... because his adoptive Dad was in a bluesy band in Indiana. The guitar player, whose name escapes me now... knew Meatloaf before he got famous. So when Marvin was in Indiana one time... he jammed with the band at their house! My husband said it was electrifying and he was about 10 yrs old. Nicest, most humble man ever he said ❤
One of my all time favorite albums. Ran out and bought it then locked myself in my room for days and listened to it. Rest in peace Meatloaf. On to Rock & Roll heaven.
It seems to me that the older I get I'll discover another musician that's always been around for me to listen to and meat loaf is one that I now enjoy greatly, that guy is so brilliant that it is to imagine someone else coming along to fit in his shoes ,I get the feeling that he's Howling in heaven now.
I was 9 or 10 when I found this record in my moms collection 1978 or 79. I used to sing the lyrics around the house. My older sisters didn’t even get but I did. I was a mini meat loaf!!!! Love it
Meat your birthday and mine are the same day I start listening to you when I was 10 years old,,,,,till this day I still listen to your music,,,,,it is different then any other music ever RIP MEAT
Back when music really had stories to tell. Back when the music was really in auto tuned and straight up fun. I justvlove this band to this day. I’m a decade younger than the originals. He is amazing and the woman whose voice is just so perfect.
I was 14, must have been 1985, when I saw this show in Stuttgart. I remember feeling lost there between all the adults, but they let me stand in 1st row without being squeezed. It was incredibly awesome.
Jim Steinman: Piano, vocals Paul Glanz: Keyboards, vocals Bob Kulick: Lead guitar Bruce Kulick: Guitar Steve Buslowe: Bass, vocals Joe Stefko: Drums Rory Dodd: Vocals Karla DeVito: Female lead vocals
A true legend. He was truly amazing in my era. What a talent and history maker. The band fazed out disco. "Bat out of hell" was my sons first CD as well. Long live ROCK AND ROLL !! We will miss you...
This performance will be encapsulated in time. 1000 years from now they are going to see this and know everything they need to know about the human sprit.
He celebrated the Rock And Roll Church in the best way possible. Everything was bigger than life, but always linked to pure emotion and PASSION. And yes, Roy Orbisons´ legacy is so strong with his music. The 70s were the richest and most creative era musically in every musical field imho . It was great to be a young boy in these times. Thank you for sharing Basil. WHAT A SHOW!!! And it was so interesting and insightful to see the interview and the mastermind of all this, Jim Steinman.
I was 8 yrs old when this album came out, I’m 53 now and I still know all the words. Classic rock and roll, what a awesome concert. Nothing like now or ever again. BRILLIANT LOVED EVERY MINUTE. ❤️❤️. Perth West Australia 🇦🇺
I was 17, and he changed my life. The partnership of Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf was magical! Much more than the sum of their parts. Been loving them for over 40 years now. RIP boys. We'll catch your act on the other side. ♥️🦇🎼. Florida, USA 🌴🦩🇺🇸
Meat Loaf had three huge hit singles in the Netherlands, but he is mostly remembered by his first one: Paradise by the dashboard light. The song was a number one hit in the Netherlands in the winter of 1978-79. I was 12 years old them. I still remember that our whole school class sang the song spontaneously on our way to the sports hall (Hengstdal, Nijmegen), where we used to have our gym classes. Nobody really knew the words (not to mention the meaning) then, but that didn’t matter. Later I learned that it was in fact Ellen Foley who did the female part of this duet, so I thought that the girl we saw on “Top Pop”, Karla de Vito, was merely a lip synching stand in. After seeing the Rock Palast concert now I have to say: hats off to her, she has a strong voice and she certainly stole the show on this concert! My six guilders pocket money a week would have been sufficient to buy the single in 1978 (or a month of savings to buy the longplay) but I also had other expenses… So the album Bat out of hall I eventually bought much later, second hand, at a lesser price. Rock Palast Concert (or especially Rock Palast Nights) emitted by German WDR television were the cream of the crop, if you were in to live performances of popular rock acts in the 1970-80s. Living close to the German border, we were lucky to receive German television on our antenna when I was a kid and I still remember the great concerts by the Who, Kid Creole, Van Morrison, Grateful Dead, ZZ top. Missed Meatloaf in 1978 though. Great to have the occasion to see and hear his concert here after all those years!
Jacques, she had to lip synch in the video because the recording had already been made using Ellen Foley's voice. Also, music videos were still in their infancy at the time. No MTV yet.
Him doing what he did until his last breath and he was pure Rock n Roll and a unique frontman that no one could match when he was on top of his game. RIP to a legendary guy😉🙏
Meat Loaf was a great showman, he was the master of the opera rock genre, there will never be anyone like him, he is one in a million... Rest in peace dear Meat
Thought I'd come back and pay my respect to the man RIP Meatloaf a true rockstar
right there with ya bro
AMEN..........POSSIBLY THE BEST " PERFORMANCE of Meatloaf " HERE .
I hope him n steinmen are rocking out in heaven. I loved his song. Heaven Can Wait.
He will be remembered forever. 🌹🥀🌺🌷
Same!
An absolute beast of rock n roll
Same, inspirational. He is irreplaceable

RIP Meat Loaf. What a great artist and performer you were. You gave us one of the top five best albums of all time, Bat Out Of Hell.
After giving it much thought and agonizing over it I declare Bat out of Hell the best album of all time.
Heartbroken that you've gone. You can never ever be replaced, one of a kind. We wanted you, we needed you and we loved you, three out three after all.. Rest in paradise legend 😭
The Kulick Brothers rocked...... you're stardust again Bob.
The World lost a true performing legend, and great human being.
RIP Meat Loaf. Thank you for the honor of being a fan of your craft.
RIP, Meatloaf, another huge loss to the music world. You will be missed.
No, not really. Biggest douchebag in the music world. Treated everybody like crap, including his fans.
@@mikelachey824 What!?
What planet have you been living on?
@@musicfanhawk4523 The one where you can watch this psycho go off on people, or read about his obnoxious comments. Real sorry to burst your bubble, this guy didn't have a great deal of people who respected him, and he even embarrassed his own kids with his behavior as well. So, in response to your obscure comment. I live on the planet where you can look that shit up, REAL EASY!! 😂 LOL
@@mikelachey824 Funny how you're the only one who seems to know this. On behalf of the rest of the world, please just let us grieve in peace.
@@mikelachey824 wow sounds like you were personally offended for some reason. I guess you should look up all the thousands of people that have commented about his passing, not a SINGLE bad word by anyone in the music industry, theater or movies so how does that happen if he was a douchebag as you say? Your comment was out of line, and you can have your opinion .
One of the first LPs I bought in the late 70's. Bombastic at the time. Even today... in my eyes.
RIP (Marvin) Michael Lee. Hope you see paradise.
He will see paradise; it will be by the dashboard light
Seen this group around about the same time as this gig - but in Manchester, I was so thrilled to be there, I jumped on the stage. RIP big fella.
Another True Genius Passes. This one hurts me because his music I grew up on was in my memories and my Heart. RIP and enjoy Paradise
Jim and ML produced some of the most timeless anthems of all time. Can’t say we will still be listening to some current artists in a years time never mind in Forty plus years time. RIP both of you. You will live on forever in your music❤️
I may only be 21 but my dad and mom grew up and fell in love to meatloaf and passed that love onto myself and my siblings from the iconic BOOH musical and his songs, forever rocking to this legend RIP
Such a brutal, brutal song for one man to carry. Bat out of hell. Vicious. And thats just the first 14 minutes. I'm certain no other man in history could have delivered this insane album live like Meat Loaf did. Jim Steinman created a timeless masterpiece which only Meat Loaf could have ever bought to life. Remarkable. Meant to be. Rest well big man, you've earned it.
Jim Steinman the most successful sing and song writer this century!
Paradise by the dashboard lights. I deflowered my 1st girlfriend to that song. In the back of my 1972 Chevy Impala. In a pouring rain storm on a lonely New England dirt road. The entire night was magical listening to Meatloaf on my 8 track player. We made sweet love all night, with 1970's songs playing on the mix track tape. Oh God the good times.
This is a magnificent performance with wonderful musicians and some of the most powerful Rock and Roll sounds and lyrics ever. Meat Loaf is and was a Master performer and Rock and Roll singer and virtually invented American Rock and Roll opera. I miss him already.
He always gave 150 per cent in each performance .outstanding vocals.
Still the most underrated rock singer of all time !!!!
It cant be said about many, but Meat Loaf was truly a one off, damn near his own genre.
Will be sadly missed, thank you for all the memories
R.I.P. Sir 💐
We' lost one of the best, a monster of rock and a legend . Rest in Paradise Meat Loaf , and thank you for all years of Rock & Roll Xxx
I was only 1 year old when this concert was taking place. Bat out of hell 2 came out when I was in HS and I absolutely fell in love with the music this man did. I've been a musician my whole life and have alot of respect for the genius musicianship he played. Has feeling, emotion, and soul like no other band I've ever seen. RIP and TY for the memories
200 concerts in less than a year. You can hear the damage it did to Meat Loaf's voice. He was never the same singer again. He gave 10,000% of everything he had. RIP.
But he recovered and was sensational on Bat II.
well, here he is at his worst I think... no note is right... in studio he does a better job...
Amazing how many years have gone by and how fast I'm back in 81' with all the feelings I felt listening to meat loaf the first time. Damn his passion makes hair on the back of neck stand up.
RIP Meat, can't believe the news, our son is 16 and a competitive swimmer he listens to your full length tracks when training gets him in the zone he like many others is heartbroken your music your memory will live on God bless you and condolences to family and friends xxxx
I was six years old then so could not have seen it live... but I wish I had been able to. Still glad it is here so I can see it even though I could not be there. Love Meat Loaf. Happy Birthday to Meat Loaf. - Heidi
RIP Meat Loaf. I will always listen to your music! Thanks for your songs!😪
The amount of energy and emotion this man channelled was phenomenal, it transenfed from a mere rock concert into a Rock Opera!! But let's not forget his band all who put there 110 % to create this spectical like no other. Thank you all for giving us something to hold on to an cherish for all times!!
God bless you all.. Meat and Jim Rest in Peace
Thanks for being a big part of the soundtrack of my youth, Meat. Rest in glory, fella.
RIP legend. Phenomenal performer.
Goosebumps..was 13 when it was released..had it on 8 track..wild hot summer nights..the 70s were magic
Yes the seventies were magical. So were the fifties and sixties. Look at the crap the kids inherited from us. Nuclear war is a real possibility. Our leaders (all if them Regan, Clinton, Nixon, Carter, all if them sold out for the $$$$. Our OLIGARCHS (rich) are going to run to their Bunkers, while we are reduced to radioactive ash. MEAT LOAF is among the Lucky one's, no longer on this EARTH to face the consequences of the final count down. You and I and millions more were the lucky ones to have been born in a time frame that allowed us to have a "pursuit of happiness, as outlined in the Constitution. No more.
Meatloaf brought class to rock music 43 million sold from bat out of hell alone the drama the many different arrangements made this show last forever
Rest in peace and thanks for your great work ✨🙏
Pssst. I think it's 50 million now.
Meat is so theatrical....I love it😁😎😍
Vintage classic Meatloaf.... they don't do music like this anymore...
Thank goodness.
@@kyleknight6027 Troll.....
@@ogrebattle22763, totally. You can't fix stupid.
When I first watched this show, on German TV, I was struck. Es lebe der Rock 'n' Roll!
My hubby met Meatloaf in the 80's.... because his adoptive Dad was in a bluesy band in Indiana. The guitar player, whose name escapes me now... knew Meatloaf before he got famous. So when Marvin was in Indiana one time... he jammed with the band at their house! My husband said it was electrifying and he was about 10 yrs old. Nicest, most humble man ever he said ❤
The amount of energy Meatloaf put into his music was amazing. They used to keep oxygen backstage.
It takes a lot of oxygen to run a machine that size for that hard and that long ...
Love it! My first album, written in memory like carved in stone. R.I.P.
Truly timeless and utterly magnificent. May Meatloaf Rest In Peace.
One of my all time favorite albums. Ran out and bought it then locked myself in my room for days and listened to it. Rest in peace Meatloaf. On to Rock & Roll heaven.
It seems to me that the older I get I'll discover another musician that's always been around for me to listen to and meat loaf is one that I now enjoy greatly, that guy is so brilliant that it is to imagine someone else coming along to fit in his shoes ,I get the feeling that he's Howling in heaven now.
Dein Werk wird in die Musikgeschichte eingehen. Thank you, thank you MEAT LOAF
I was 9 or 10 when I found this record in my moms collection 1978 or 79. I used to sing the lyrics around the house. My older sisters didn’t even get but I did. I was a mini meat loaf!!!! Love it
Lol. I've tried to be a minimeat myself
Meatloaf is a classical performer mixed with Rock. He’s the real deal RIP
I wish there were more videos of Stienman at the piano. This is just pure gold
Meat your birthday and mine are the same day I start listening to you when I was 10 years old,,,,,till this day I still listen to your music,,,,,it is different then any other music ever RIP MEAT
Back when music really had stories to tell. Back when the music was really in auto tuned and straight up fun. I justvlove this band to this day. I’m a decade younger than the originals. He is amazing and the woman whose voice is just so perfect.
I was 14, must have been 1985, when I saw this show in Stuttgart. I remember feeling lost there between all the adults, but they let me stand in 1st row without being squeezed. It was incredibly awesome.
Benztown forever
We lost a generational talent. RIP MEATLOAF, gone but not forgotten.

There's some lead guitar from Bruce too.
A lovely guy with an extraordinary talent and a legacy that will never be replicated..
This is rock and roll. With all its glitches and imperfections and giving it 100%. Mad skillz all around. RIP Jim and Meat.
One of the best rock vocalists of all time! RIP Legend!
Love this happy 45 Anniversary and to the amazing musicians Shout out to Joe Stefko❤
A true legend. He was truly amazing in my era. What a talent and history maker. The band fazed out
disco. "Bat out of hell" was my sons first CD as well. Long live ROCK AND ROLL !! We will miss you...
His 77-79 band was phenomenal…..
fuck yea. heroes get remembered, but legends never die. rip Meat.
This performance will be encapsulated in time. 1000 years from now they are going to see this and know everything they need to know about the human sprit.
Your music has brought back so many wonderful memories. Many thanks. Rest in Peace.
First Jim now Mike. The world keeps losing some AWESOME MUSICAL LEGENDS. Thanks for the EPIC CRAFT you both had.
R.I.P. MEATLOAF. KEEP ON ROCKIN
He celebrated the Rock And Roll Church in the best way possible. Everything was bigger than life, but always linked to pure emotion and PASSION. And yes, Roy Orbisons´ legacy is so strong with his music.
The 70s were the richest and most creative era musically in every musical field imho . It was great to be a young boy in these times.
Thank you for sharing Basil. WHAT A SHOW!!! And it was so interesting and insightful to see the interview and the mastermind of all this, Jim Steinman.
The piano intro of "Two outta three ain`t bad" is beautiful. What a man he was and always will be!
I was 8 yrs old when this album came out, I’m 53 now and I still know all the words. Classic rock and roll, what a awesome concert. Nothing like now or ever again. BRILLIANT LOVED EVERY MINUTE. ❤️❤️. Perth West Australia 🇦🇺
I was 13, he was awesome. Everyone in the band was terrific
I was 17, and he changed my life. The partnership of Jim Steinman and Meat Loaf was magical! Much more than the sum of their parts. Been loving them for over 40 years now. RIP boys. We'll catch your act on the other side. ♥️🦇🎼. Florida, USA 🌴🦩🇺🇸
Meat Loaf had three huge hit singles in the Netherlands, but he is mostly remembered by his first one: Paradise by the dashboard light. The song was a number one hit in the Netherlands in the winter of 1978-79. I was 12 years old them. I still remember that our whole school class sang the song spontaneously on our way to the sports hall (Hengstdal, Nijmegen), where we used to have our gym classes. Nobody really knew the words (not to mention the meaning) then, but that didn’t matter. Later I learned that it was in fact Ellen Foley who did the female part of this duet, so I thought that the girl we saw on “Top Pop”, Karla de Vito, was merely a lip synching stand in. After seeing the Rock Palast concert now I have to say: hats off to her, she has a strong voice and she certainly stole the show on this concert! My six guilders pocket money a week would have been sufficient to buy the single in 1978 (or a month of savings to buy the longplay) but I also had other expenses… So the album Bat out of hall I eventually bought much later, second hand, at a lesser price. Rock Palast Concert (or especially Rock Palast Nights) emitted by German WDR television were the cream of the crop, if you were in to live performances of popular rock acts in the 1970-80s. Living close to the German border, we were lucky to receive German television on our antenna when I was a kid and I still remember the great concerts by the Who, Kid Creole, Van Morrison, Grateful Dead, ZZ top. Missed Meatloaf in 1978 though. Great to have the occasion to see and hear his concert here after all those years!
Jacques, she had to lip synch in the video because the recording had already been made using Ellen Foley's voice. Also, music videos were still in their infancy at the time. No MTV yet.
Him doing what he did until his last breath and he was pure Rock n Roll and a unique frontman that no one could match when he was on top of his game. RIP to a legendary guy😉🙏
Absolute legend! He was a brilliant artist. R.I.P.
An amazing talent, amazing stage presence, so blessed I grew up with the likes of Meat Loaf. R. I. P. Music like this will live for ever more.
SUCH AN INCREDIBLE PERFORMER!!!!!
RIP MEATLOAF
THANK YOU FOR YOUR 110% EVERY DAMN TIME
Great bands supporting
Genius of steinman too
RIP JIM AND MEAT
love his songs and the way he sang them he seemed sweet and real at the same time prayers out to his famiy god bless
Meat Loaf was a great showman, he was the master of the opera rock genre, there will never be anyone like him, he is one in a million... Rest in peace dear Meat
