Jeff Wayne's Musical Version of The War of the Worlds

In the 1970s, the chances of anything coming from Mars were far greater than the chances of a household not having an LP of Jeff Wayne's vibrant sci-fi opera. Based on HG Wells' chilling tale of alien invaders, the hugely popular stage version of Wayne's 'Worlds' is captured on film here, Richard Burton's original voiceover adding extra menace to the dynamic production.

Absolutely blown away. The album has always been a favourite but watching the live interpretation is mind blowing. Every single person in the show gives 100%. A credit to Jeff Wayne.
