Review and footage from Adelaide

Heart Down Under

AdelaideNow: The scene-stealers at the Adelaide Entertainment Centre last night were US group Heart, led by Ann Wilson on vocals and sister Nancy on guitar. Although Heart were second on the bill, Ann’s stratospheric vocal range, power and tenacity on such classic ’70s rockers as Magic Man andBarracuda were among the evening’s high points. Nancy, in turn, took the lead on ’80s power ballad These Dreams. However, it was Ann’s astonishing vocal acrobatics on a stripped-down rendition of their big torch song Alone which drew the night’s biggest response from a small but otherwise enthusiastic audience. Heart also performed a virtually identical cover of John Farnham’s trademark hit You’re The Voice (only with wonky keyboards instead of bagpipes) which proved to be another crowd-pleaser. More from this review.
