![Meat Loaf - Concert Opening (Live in Birmingham, Dec. 2003)
Heres a little treat for you all - from December 11th 2003 at the NEC in Birmingham, this is a pretty great quality recording which will be up in full sooner or later on the MLBFCollection channel - this is just a test of fixing up the audio a bit, this is a great show in terms of performance and quality and I really dig the intro for this part of the tour (always found it funny how god was edited out of the Wasted Youth Speech) - featured here is the 2003 arrangement of Wasted Youth over tape into a live rendition of Do It!
Enjoy :p

![Meat Loaf - Modern Girl (Live on The Tube, 1985)
I found a slightly better source for the video footage of only this one song from some stadium rock video anthology on the Russian web lol - recorded February 8th 1985 in London at the Channel 4 Studios along with 3 other tracks, appearing on the very popular show (at the time) The Tube. Personally, my favourite Tube performance is The Jams final TV appearance in 1982 - anyway, enjoy!

![Jim Steinman and Michael Wellers MORE THAN YOU DESERVE - 1973 Workshop @ Public Theater (Restored)
Brought to you by https://mlbfcollection.blogspot.com/
Finally, after a very lengthy wait, here is the recording from the April 1973 workshop production of More Than You Deserve. This play was written by Michael Weller, with music and lyrics by Jim Steinman and was developed between 1972 and 1973, and famously during the early auditioning stages, Jim Steinman first met Meat Loaf. This play is as gruesome as The Dream Engine in my opinion, and just as deserving of praise. This recording sadly distorts in many places, but is higher quality than the preview tape so we should be thankful for what we have.
Note: It is likely my scene selection timestamps arent entirely accurate as the scene chronology in the different iterations of this play confuses me, even with the programmes as a guide. With all that said, enjoy and as always let me know what you think.
