Zucchero - Live At The Royal Albert Hall (DVD)

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 Albert Halls',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.

Advantages: You get to hear the original Supergroup reformed
Disadvantages: The album shows what good music some of us missed played live.

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.

Advantages: Value for money, the amount of extras, great music
Disadvantages: none that I can think of

...This new DVD from David Gilmour, 'The Voice and Guitar of Pink Floyd', as it says on the sticker on the front, is great value for money as it includes "Over 5 hours of footage plus bonus content, including additional tracks, music videos, documentaries and photo gallery." Disc 1 is the concert that took place at the Royal Albert Hall in May 2006 and is a full 2 ½ hours long (including an interval). The running order includes songs from David's latest solo album 'On An Island', with the expected Pink Floyd classics. David's band is made up of Richard Wright from Pink Floyd, Phil Manzanera from Roxy Music, Jon Carin, Guy Pratt, and Steve DiStanislao. Some of the songs included some very special guests, David Crosby, Graham Nash, David Bowie and Robert Wyatt. The running order is: Speak To Me, Breathe, Time, Breathe... Read review
