Live in Bucharest! I was blessed to be there and still feel the intensity
22 November 2019
I'm not (and never been) a fanatic fan of Jacko but here we are talking about his live performance. Combined with the industry's best technology for that period (and believe me when I say that is still epic) this concert was exceptional from many points of view. It was (probably the only) aired by HBO and reached record ratings. I remember the filming crew but I still don't know which format was used for capturing. If it was on celluloid I only hope that it will be distributed on Blu-ray too. On the other hand, Romania was emerging from a very difficult era due to the communist encapsulation and a planetary event like this was a well deserved reward (thank you Marcel Avram for making this possible). But overall MJ was visibly happy about being there, surrounded by an ecstatic crowd and gave his best for the show, resulting in one of the most emotional concert ever. Since then I managed to see many of my iconic artists in live performance all over the world and I was touched by many of them but Michael Jackson Live in Bucharest remains unique. Of course I'm subjective, I had the privilege to be in the audience, but still, I can tell greatness when I see it. I strongly recommend to spend two hours of your life watching this, you won't feel all the passed years (other then the video resolution perhaps) many of the greatest hits of all times were performed and you'll enjoy them (again).
