Take That - Beautiful World Live [2008] (NTSC)

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
by: Take That

Release Date February 25, 2008
I would give the DVD 5 star rating too. The program is awesome. Take That is in it's best form, and concert is wonderfully conceived.

I trained myself to perceive buying something I like on a Blu-ray, after I already have it on a DVD, as an upgrade and not double-dipping. As such, I expect it to actually BE an upgrade...

Unfortunately... it was lit for the in-house audience and not for cameras (at least not for cameras used to shoot this concert). Insufficient light leads to grain and grain is abundant here, there is a lot of blocking and it is obvious that there is something gravely wrong with the colors and contrast. It's blooming, posterized and painful to watch. I wasn't expecting much of an improvement over ... Read More:

starring: Pink

Release Date April 16, 2007
I'm married but when we went to see Pink live in Nottingham me and my female friend both walked out and said she could "take" us down the other path if you get my drift (& not married herself).
She is an amazing show woman, she's sexy, daring, has an exquisite voice!!! Need I go on!!
I've seen the Try This and I'm Not Dead tours live and she just keeps getting better!!!
I've only just bought this and the Try This dvd (Jan 08) but I can't wait to watch them!!!! Enjoy!!

Paul Weller - At The BBC [2008] (NTSC)

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
by: Paul Weller

Release Date November 03, 2008
In the days where being talented is no longer a requisit to be a singer/songwriter, here is a total breath of fresh air from one of the most talented of them all, Paul Weller.
The prententious and talentless Robbie Williams should take a look at this DVD and apologise to everybody for the codswallop he has churned out.
Anyway back to the immensley talented Paul Weller, the DVD is a collection of four TV appearances, 3 live cuts and finishing with a TOTP section. Tracks include the brilliant You Do Something To Me, Changingman, Porcelain Gods, Broken Stones, From The Floorboards Up, Heavy Soul and from the Jam songbook In The City, Down The Tube Station and A Town Called Malice.
Its is absolutely excellent and I cannot speak to highly of ... Read More:

Celine Dion - Live In Las Vegas - A New Day [2007]

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
by: Celine Dion

Release Date December 10, 2007
After watching this show, not only you loose yourself in celine`s great voice and performance, but you also realise that this BD DVD is wrapped up in an unforgettable presentation of high quality imagery and sound, which really does make the show come alive in your own living room. I recommend this Blu-ray disc to all Celine Dion fans, but also to those who haven`t had the chance of getting to know her work on a closer level.
Go get it now !!

Highwaymen Live [1990]

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
by: Highwaymen

Release Date February 27, 2006
I was lucky enough to see The Highwaymen live in when they came to the UK, probably not long after this show was recorded and the show I saw was very similar to the one they did on the DVD. I have always been a huge fan of Willie Nelson and also like the others, but when you see them together you cannot believe you have 4 huge country stars on the same stage, singing together!. The DVD brought back many memories of one of the best live shows I have seen - and I have been to loads. The rapport between the guys is obvious, and regardless of what Willie says about 'all of us having ego's the size of a bus' what cmes over is a fantasic group of country singers doing what they do best. If you like any one of them but havent yet discovered the Highwaymen, you ... Read More:

Led Zeppelin: DVD (2DVD) [2003]

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
starring: Led Zeppelin
directed by: Dick Carruthers

Release Date May 26, 2003
Led Zep in their prime 1968-1980, they had there chance for world domination, but they always wanted us keep to waiting for more. With little or no interviews, no singles, no videos, no live snipits on the old grey whistle test. They didn't count on their drummer snuffing it in Sep 1980. He unfortunately was the best part of the band. 27 years on they play at the o2 for just a few select people and couldn't even be bothered to release that on DVD. Good old you tube helped out, but some guys shakey phone from aisle 150 just doesn't cut it. Then just when I thought it was safe there's jimmy page at the Bejing Olympics, fantastic (that'll be enough gigging for 2008 jimmy). Finally Robert Plant needs to wake up before he ends up in a retirement home wishing he had just done ... Read More:

Eric Clapton - Crossroads Guitar Festival 2007

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
starring: Buddy Guy, B.B. King, Los Lobos, Jimmie Vaughan, Johnny Winter
directed by: Martyn Atkins

Release Date November 26, 2007
What can I say - this is simply the best live rock/blues concert recording - EVER!
Clapton effortlessly demonstrating why he is in a league of his own.
Great(guitar)performance from Steve Winwood, superb playing from John Mayer, Robert Cray, Jeff Beck (where the heck did he find that bass player?), Derek Trucks, Vince Gill, et al. Spine-tinglingly good.

Concert For George [2003]

CD-Charts > DVD > General AAS
starring: Gary Brooker, Joe Brown, Sam Brown, Jim Capaldi, Eric Clapton
directed by: David Leland

Release Date November 24, 2003
I remember trying to get a ticket to the actual concert for George, and not being able to. I knew this would be a fitting and memorable event. The lineup included a lot of his friends and former colleagues, for example Paul McCartney, Ringo Starr, Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne, Billy Preston, and Tom Petty. I assume the majority of people buying and watching this DVD are Beatles/George Harrison fans. I certainly fall into that category.

I was moved beyond words and description by this concert. There was an immeasurable outpouring of love, although not in a cringey, gushing way, just in a way that showed the reverence he was held in by those who knew him. Although there were international superstars, nobody tried to steal the show. They were all there to remember a dearly ... Read More:
