Spice Girls Live In Istanbul Torrent
Directed by David Barnard. With Spice Girls, Geri Horner, Victoria Beckham, Mel B. Joe Louis Walker, live in Istanbul in 1995. It was my first time performing in Turkey. We were very surprised to find the audience very supportive and knowledgeable.
This was a great album. I was even as a kid very impressed with all the different styles of sounds they featured on one album (even their second album).
A full chior and string set on 'Mama', the irrestistable funk of 'Last Time Lover' and r&b 'Say You'll Be There' and 'Something Kinda Funny'. The disco sounds of 'Who Do You Think You Are' and hip hop 'If You Can't Dance'.their first album is def worth a purchase! Its not perfect of course as they suffer in singing but the music and production stands out! The Spice Girls were huge in the 90s. In all actuallity, I bet many who grew up in the 90s will look back and see them as icons of the period. They took a commercial pop sound and gave it an internationally recognised face.
As far as such a pop sound goes, they weren't so bad (though that's probably more down to clever producers rather than the Spice Girl individuals). Regardless of what you think of them, they'll be remembered as icons of the 90s, along with the Macarena and fads such as Tazos (or Pogs) and Tamagotchis. Ha, the 90s - lest we forget. Style is all that matters! Regarding the talent of the Spice Girls, obviously they all know how to sing and are expert entertainers. So why do they get such a bad rap?
I think it's because of their style, which is so pink, posh, and directed so specifically that a lot of people are not going to like it. I mean these girls are like the Fugazi and Sonic Youth of girly pop music! I love the Spice Girls. Songs like 'Say You'll Be There' and 'Stop' are classics. You can bet years from now when they play one of those songs on the radio, they'll be some people asking 'Hey, that song sounds really familiar, who was that?' Is there ANYBODY that doesn't have a crush on at least one of these girls?
The only bad thing I have to say about the Spice Girls is that they seem to be a corporate product, oh well.

The show was split up into 5 parts with a costume change at each one. The stage consisted of a ramp leading down to the main stage. There were two staircases at the far right and left of the stage that lead to smaller platform stages. There was a small runway at the center of the main stage. The band was located at the bottom right and left of the ramp. There was a grid with the letters S-P-I-C-E on the left of the stage.
There was also a large screen at the back of the stage that would rise and lower. It was used at the start of show. The Girls would enter the stage as it rose.
