Production Year: 1999 - Music / Performing Arts - Original Language: English - Classification: Exempt - Starring: Donny Osmond, Joan Collins, Richard Attenborough
Advantages: Visual + Audio Showcase of a live session Disadvantages: Could of been more of the show on the 2nd DVD
What an excellent DVD.
Comes in 2 DVD edition, but the 2nd DVD is more the 'Making of' type of thing that you generally get in a 2 DVD set.
The first DVD - is the actual show that went on in Gelredome Arnhem on 29/30th October 2004.
25,000 tickets were sold for this show, one of the largest in the world to attend to watch / listen to just 1 single DJ.
The actual event itself lasted for approx 8 hours, with a cut down 200 mins on the first DVD of the actual show.
If you like DJ Tiesto, then I highly recommend getting this DVD, especially if you have your DVD player linked to your AV Receiver / Surround Sound System, will sound truley amazing.
Go and get yourself a copy from your local store. ...
Advantages: excellent perfonces, great talent, very entertaining Disadvantages: I cannot think of any
DVD Review
If you are into contemporary jazz or simply just want to hear something new and refreshing, this DVD will surely captivate your heart as it has captured mine. Michael Buble (I cannot find the special 'e' character to denote a specific pronunciation of his last name. But yeah, it is pronounced with two syllables) who has I believe brought back to life Jazz in its more refreshing tune was sensational in this concert of his in Wiltern Theater in L.A. sometime in 2005. He was just so charming singing some hits of the past breathtakingly effortless. This concert just made me love Michael Buble more.
I especially like Michael Buble's duet with Laura Pausini on "You'll Never Find Another Love Like Mine." It is romantic and swaying and it reminds me of Robbie William and Nicole Kidman's "Something Stupid". "Feeling Good" is also my ...
Advantages: Strong production, vocals, melodies and musical ability Disadvantages: "Crazy World" - nuff said
Introduction
"Abba" was the band's third album, but only their second release outside Sweden. It was released in the spring of 1975 and I recall getting it as a Christmas gift that year when I was 11.
I had bypassed their first album - back then I only really got albums at birthdays and Christmas and I think my brief love affair with the Rubettes overtook my desire to hear more of Abba, despite the fact I loved "Waterloo" from the minute I heard them sing it at the Eurovision Song Contest in 1974.
That changed in the summer of 1975 when I heard "I Do I Do I Do I Do" and "SOS".
It was these singles that drew me towards this album and to this day I can still recall the beautifully photographed sleeve and bright yellow label. My vinyl copy has long since gone but I still have the album on CD, in the remastered edition which I am ...
