This is AMAZING NEWS!!!! Madonna's long sought after Blond Ambition tour is finally getting a DVD release, according to the very good sources at Madonna Tribe. Blond Ambition, arguably the greatest rock concert of all time, has never been released on DVD, only on Laser Disc in the US, so fans are going to have multiple orgasms over this news. Also to be released soon is the first FULL recording of Madonna very first tour, The Virgin Tour. Now I have an old VHS copy of the tour, but certain songs were not included, like Angel, Borderline and Burning Up. This remastered version of the show will include all of the hits. Yay!! Also, a remastered recording of The Girlie Show is coming. Hot damn!! Madonna Tribe states:
"These are new releases Warner had been working on since a while, and time has finally come to hit the stores."
I have been waiting for years to get Blond Ambition on DVD. It's literally a master work of art IMHO. The sets, the lighting, the set list, the choreography; it totally changed the way that artists approached live performances and set the bar so high that hardly anyone has surpassed it to this day. Even Madonna, in my view, didn't equal it until The Confessions Tour. The Virgin Tour is also really great because it shows a legend in the making, figuring out her stage persona and showing a vulnerability that we don't get to see in our Madge very often these days. Anyway, no official release date yet, but you can bet I'll be watching for it.
