Review of Dirty Pretty Things - Puffing On A Coffin Nail - Live At The Forum (DVD)

The Cure doing what they do best.

Advantages: great music, definite value for money
Disadvantages: some ropey fan footage, one of your favourite songs is missing

...2004's half-decent album (simply titled The Cure), they went and got rid of Roger O'Donnell, the keyboard player. (Sacked or quit? Who can tell?). For a band who have been around for 30 years, people leaving and being replaced is to be expected. In this case, he wasn't replaced, but Porl Thompson (a previous, and excellent guitarist) came back. And with long-term bassist (Simon Gallup), and fairly recent drummer (Jason Cooper), Robert Smith took ...
...the 9 European festivals that make up this DVD. The DVD contains 30 songs taken from those 9 festivals. 155 minutes of classic old Cure songs, and some more recent stuff. The footage used comes from "on-the-night-big-screen-cameras" (presumably the big screens so people standing 4 miles back at a festival can see what's happening), normal, on-stage cameras, and a load of fan footage. Giving fans video cameras and sticking them in a dark field was ...

Review of The Cure - Festival 2005 (DVD)

Tina Turner - Simply the Best

Advantages: Has a lot of her older hits, excellent performance, good quality sound
Disadvantages: Only if you don't like Tina Turner

...I can say that Tina Turner puts on the best concert show ever – and yes, she has brilliant legs with ‘those stilettos’ and everything else for a 60 year old. The young and old alike attended this concert. I believe this DVD would appeal to many age groups and is a must for anyone that has ever seen her in concert. I have been to see many people in concert such as Bon Jovi, Robbie Williams, Ronan Keating, Bryan Adams, Texas – ...
...on stage for a good 2.5 hours, which is pretty impressive. I know it’s her last tour, but I would love to see her live again. Her voice is brilliant, she gets the crowd involved, and her backing team is brilliant. This DVD is excellent and will get you dancing around the room for ages. It is brilliantly put together and sounds really good. It has some of her greatest songs. For a 60-year-old she still has loads of energy and can kick it with ...

Review of Tina Turner - One Last Time In Concert (DVD)

The Latin Legend Ricky Martin UNPLUGGED

Advantages: Amazing songs, real music, feels like you were at the recording, subtitles in different languages
Disadvantages: People who can't understand Spanish may find it difficult to understand what Ricky says

Ricky Martin is THE legend of Latin music and in my opinion always will be! His MTV Unplugged DVD is by far the most entertaining and cultural music DVD ever made. I really enjoy watching it! It has a 'feel good' quality about it, and is also quite educational in learning about a different culture and the Spanish/Latin American language, which I think is truly beautiful. For some reason, I felt proud watching it... it really makes you reflect on ...
...amazing the diversity of performances Ricky has - he can sing with just a piano, duet with a female singer and guitarist, an uptempo track with a huge backing of different instruments and even just a drum rhythm like on 'Pegate'. The stage and setting has an angular theme to capture different beams of light, which gives it a good effect. Also, there is a very ethusiastic audience - many of whom travelled miles to see him do the unplugged - e.g. ...
