Meat Loaf - Hits out of Hell

Taglines
Rock and Roll, Meatloaf Style
Overview

Though Hits out of Hell shares the title of Meat Loaf's 1984 greatest hits album, the tracklisting is not quite the same: curiously, the DVD omits "Dead Ringer for Love", "Midnight at the Lost and Found" and "All Revved Up with No Place to Go", but includes, perhaps by way of compensation, "More Than You Deserve" and "If You Really Want To". Such considerations are, of course, of only superficial importance: once producer and songwriter Jim Steinman had patented the Meat Loaf template on 1977's 30-million-selling Bat Out of Hell--an engagingly preposterous synthesis of Springsteen's Born to Run, Spector's Be My Baby, Wagner's "Ride of the Valkyries",. On the DVD: This DVD offers a choice of Dolby Surround Sound or PCM Stereo, and has a refreshingly simple and easy to navigate menu offering instant access to different tracks. The special features are desultory in the extreme: a brief biography of the Meat Loaf phenomenon and a discography.

Overview

Obwohl „Hits out of Hell“ den Titel von Meat Loafs „Greatest Hits“-Album von 1984 teilt, ist die Trackliste nicht ganz dieselbe: Seltsamerweise lässt die DVD „Dead Ringer for Love“, „Midnight at the Lost and Found“ und „All Revved Up with No Place to Go“ aus, aber beinhaltet, vielleicht als Ausgleich, „More Than You Deserve“ und „If You Really Want To“. Solche Überlegungen sind natürlich nur von oberflächlicher Bedeutung: Als der Produzent und Songwriter Jim Steinman die Meat-Loaf-Vorlage von „Bat Out of Hell“ aus dem Jahr 1977 patentieren ließ - eine einnehmend absurde Synthese von Springsteens „Born to Run“, Spectors „Be My Baby“ und Wagners „Walkürenritt“. Die DVD bietet die Wahl zwischen Dolby Surround Sound und PCM Stereo und verfügt über ein erfrischend einfaches und leicht zu navigierendes Menü, das sofortigen Zugriff auf verschiedene Titel bietet. Die Zugaben sind extrem spärlich: eine kurze Biographie des „Meat Loaf“-Phänomens und eine Diskographie.
