launching Bond to music industry execs--Bond Liveis a slick showcase for four classically trained ex-session musicians' fusion of string quartet and rock music. Whatever the hype, four beautiful women wearing scanty tops and dancing with violins while backed by a five-piece rock combo and small, rarely seen string section, has nothing to do with making classical music cool and everything to do with sex. No heterosexual male is going to have any difficulty remaining glued to the screen, especially during "Duel" in which first and second violins Haylie Ecker and Eos trade licks "guitar hero" style. Further setting classical claims aside, most of the tracks are new instrumentals written by Magnus Fiennes or Tonci Huljic for the albumBorn, though "The 1812" does manage to reduce Tchaikovsky's overture to a five-minute dance number. With rock-show lighting, synthesisers, dance beats, band members chatting to the audience and a finale involving the "James Bond Theme" followed by a Rio-style fiesta for the closing "Victory--Carnival Mix" this is camp, melodramatic, sexy fun for lads everywhere. Purr-fect for a double bill withJosie and the Pussycats.On the DVD:The hour-long gig is presented with a very clear anamorphically enhanced 1.77:1 image, which despite the often low lighting is packed with detail and largely free of grain and artefacts. The Dolby Digital 5.1 sound is exceptionally full with very powerful bass. Special features include three music videos and a section going behind the scenes of the shoot for the "Victory" video, though two of these can only be accessed by working through a 10-part multimedi a quiz. The 13 minutes of interviews are standard promotional trivia, though the gallery of 10 studio-posed full-screen photographs will raise pulse rates. DVD-ROM content includes a Web link, poster and screensaver.--Gary S Dalkin

Advantages: Great laughs throughout Disadvantages: ???
I bought this dvd about 3 months ago on Ebay.
After loving his hit series 'PHOENIX NIGHTS',and watching 'Live at the Bolton AlbertHalls',about two years previously I knew he was a class act,with a unique comedy style of his own.
It wasnt up until just randomly coming across it on Ebay that I was reminded what a great and hilarious talent he is.
I payed only 0.99p for the dvd,which had been used previously,but had come in great condition.
Only yesterday,I saw it in HMV for 6 pounds,which is great value for such a great installment of laughs.
The DVD is called 'Peter Kay,Live at the Bolton AlbertHalls,as part of his 'Mum wants a Bungalow Tour'.
Bolton being his home town,it was bound to be a sell-out
It's filmed as part of his sell out ,180 date tour that spanned 9 months and was seen by 300,000 people.
Many people who are seen ...
Advantages: You get to hear the original Supergroup reformed Disadvantages: The album shows what good music some of us missed played live.
Eric Clapton is my favourite guitarist not only for his longevity but for the skill in his guitar playing. He with Jack Bruce and Ginger Baker reform in 2005 for a series of Concerts initially at the RoyalAlbertHall but then going world wide for a tour.
I saw Eric Clapton with Blind Faith at one of the early free concerts in Hyde Park in the late sixties, I think june 1969, as a teenager so was quite upset that I missed the AlbertHall Concerts especially as one fell on my birthday 5th May 2007.
However I first recorded the concert from TV and then was bought the album and DVD the Christmas following it's release. The concert is magical. There are three 60 year old rockers who hadn't played all together in a band for forty years. Playing the songs as the did all those years ago. They play, in my own personal opinion, better than ...
Advantages: Paul Weller live DVD Disadvantages: Can't be seen full screen on normal TV
I've followed Paul Weller now since he started with the Jam in 1977, through his days with the Style Council, and now throughout his 'solo' career. I've seen him live 6 times, and for those of you not fortunate enough to have seen him live, a liveDVD like this one is the next best thing.
Paul Weller has inspired the 1990's bands such as Oasis and Blur, and got the title 'The Modfather'. He regularly plays on 'Later with Jools Holland', and in February 2006 he will be collecting a lifetime achievement award at the Brit Awards.
I've had a great interest in Victorian history all of my life, and to see on DVD my musical hero playing at one of the most historic venues in the UK was awe=inspiring - I travelled down to London the next time Paul played the AlbertHall just to see the concert.
Anyway, about this DVD. It captures ...

DVD Description
Bond are classical musicians with a modern twist--4 sexy, trendy women playing traditional classical instruments with talent and gusto. Making classical music hip for perhaps the first time in history, Bond are filmed live at London's ornate Royal Albert Hall. Playing a set that includes rearranged versions of classical mainstays like Tchaikovsky's "1812," traditional songs like "Korobushka," and even the theme song from the James Bond films, Bond are an enticing mix of old and new.
