duggalolly reacted to litemakr in DL: Into the Groove Demo Reconstruction Mix - NEW 2022 Version
This is a reconstruction of the demo version of Into the Groove played during the end credits of Desperately Seeking Susan, created from the multitrack. I spent a lot of time making it match as closely as possible to create an HQ version of the demo. It uses the original bass and drum sounds and none of the instruments which were changed or added to the released mix or the Shep Pettibone mix.
4/8/22 UPDATE: This is a newly revised 2022 version which is closer to the sound of the demo version. This is my 3rd version and I think the final and best.
I hope you like it. Enjoy!

duggalolly got a reaction from ITG in Happy 25th Anniversary, The Immaculate Collection!
When The Immaculate Collection came out, it was like a huge, huge event to me. I had first gotten into Madonna when Like A Prayer came out... and then came I'm Breathless... so, The Immaculate Collection was the third Madonna album I ever had. I'd heard many of her older hits on the radio, but it didn't necessarily occur to me that songs as different as La Isla Bonita, Into The Groove, Crazy For You and Holiday were all by the same artist! So, having all these songs on one CD was pretty major... getting any CD back then was a big deal to me, because I was really little and just starting to collect CDs of artists that I liked. It was around the holidays (December '90) and I had ordered the CD through the mail and had to wait impatiently for it to come. The anticipation of waiting for it just made it an even bigger deal to me. I remember the first time I listened to it, dancing around the living room while my parents were watching tv in the next room. And then when it was over, my mom telling me it was time for bed. haha... It's weird how a thread like this can bring back these memories. I was also excited about the dance mixes of LAP and Express Yourself that were included. Those were (more or less) the versions I knew from the radio, and it was a big deal to finally have them on CD. I spent the next year playing "catch up" and getting all of Madonna's earlier, pre-Like A Prayer albums. The two-year gap between this and Erotica gave plenty of time to catch up.
This CD definitely had its own mystique about it, which isn't something I can say about most greatest hits collections I've heard since. The blue polka-dot artwork on the Cd itself, the unique pictures of Madonna that didn't look like any I'd seen up to that point, the crisp sound quality of the Q-sound mixing, and the two new songs-- rather than simply including 2 filler tracks at the end of the end of the CD, the two new songs were bold and felt like a step forward from the previous 15 tracks. The Q-sound mixes are not my favorite versions of the songs, but (as a previous post mentioned), they do help to give the album its own cohesive identity, separate from the previous albums, and it gave me an excuse to purchase Madonna's back catalog (I remember being at a Tower Records, having to convince my mother to let me get Madonna's first album, telling her the versions on that CD were totally different from the ones I already had).
I also remember the VHS video compilation. I rented it from Blockbuster video (lol) and that was another big deal to me. We didn't get MTV in my house at the time, so I had to go to the neighbor's house to watch MTV, and sit there and wait hoping they'd play a Madonna video. When I was watching the VHS, my dad saw the Open Your Heart video and he told me Madonna was a "slut"... I had no idea what that word meant.

duggalolly got a reaction from Adrian in I demand Blond Ambition in Blu Ray format!
Sorry to dredge up an old thread, but I used to have a VHS video bootleg of Blond Ambition opening night, the whole show (this was back in the late 90s)... and I remember that the costumes were 100% normal Blond Ambition clothes, and she did not change anything due to the rain. She didn't wear the black rain jacket or the leggings, just her usual costumes. I was obsessed with the BA tour in those days, and I would've noticed immediately if anything was different! After "Causing A Commotion," she stayed onstage and slid around in the puddles as if she was ice skating, and said something like, "I bet you guys didn't know you were going to an ice capades show." Guys kept coming onstage to wipe up the floor. She didn't do any costume change before "Where's The Party," so my guess is that the "Where's The Party" footage posted above, and the black-and-white "Express Yourself" scene from Truth or Dare, comes from a different night entirely (maybe the second night).
They used misleading editing like that a few times in the movie. For example, in the full-color scene of "Express Yourself," the camera pulls away and you hear Madonna's voice-over saying to the crowd, "Alright, America!"-- even though the footage was shot in Paris. I think they deliberately chose to show the night in Japan where she wore rain clothes to play up the drama of it. She says something like, "I couldn't wait to get back to America to do the show the way it was meant to be." This implies that all the Japanese shows had to be altered due to the rain, which isn't true. It wasn't raining during the Yokohama pro-shot show, and they wore the usual BA costumes. The only difference on that night was that they didn't use the curtain that usually comes down during "Like a Virgin," and "Sooner or Later"-- I'm not sure why that was, but you can actually see the next stage scenes being set up behind Madonna during those songs.

I think they deliberately chose to show the night in Japan where she wore rain clothes to play up the drama of it. She says something like, "I couldn't wait to get back to America to do the show the way it was meant to be." This implies that all the Japanese shows had to be altered due to the rain, which isn't true. It wasn't raining during the Yokohama pro-shot show, and they wore the usual BA costumes. The only difference on that night was that they didn't use the curtain that usually comes down during "Like a Virgin," and "Sooner or Later"-- I'm not sure why that was, but you can actually see the next stage scenes being set up behind Madonna during those songs.
