This Is Who We Are (2006) Review

This Is Who We Are (2006)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This DVD shows some great behind the scenes stuff with the band and some good live performances, but there are no music videos or a "Jimmy Kimmel Live" performance as the back cover led me to believe. This disc is just so you can see what you're missing if you haven't been to one of their shows, but I would recommend it to a true fan.

Echo and the Bunnymen: Live in Liverpool (2001) Review

Echo and the Bunnymen: Live in Liverpool (2001)

(More customer reviews)
Having been a Bunnymen fan for over 20 years, and after seeing them live three times, I was eager to secure this live DVD. I am now enjoying the DVD for almost two weeks; I am very glad that I was not swayed by the various reviews that slag the quick editing / imagery.
I enjoy this DVD the more I play it. I especially like the mix of songs that were chosen for this production. Hearing some older and lesser known songs such as Villiers Terrace and Zimbo / All My Colours rounds out an excellent playlist.
The projection of old band related images onto the backstage does not distract from the production. Rather, I enjoy seeing the images of the band in younger days. The main focus of the camera remains Ian and Will; their performances become stronger and the show progresses.

On two magical evenings in August of 2001, Ian McCulloch and Will Sargeant, founding fathers of the punk darlings Echo & The Bunnymen, joined their current bandmates for aspecial live performance at Paul McCartney's Liverpool Institite for the Performing Arts.

U2 - Best of 1990-2000 (2002) Review

U2 - Best of 1990-2000 (2002)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
Quick Overview: This DVD is both an excellent survey of U2's music during the past decade and a fascinating anthology of music videos, both conceptual and performance. Musically, it contains all of the songs from the regular release of the CD "U2: The Best of 1990-2000", with the exception that "For the First Time" is replaced by "The Fly". In addition, it contains seven bonus tracks, songs lamented by many for not being included on the CD. Cinematically, it boasts both performance and conceptual videos of varying quality; with the inclusion of intriguing director commentaries, many of the videos merit multiple viewings. Alternate videos for "Even Better Than The Real Thing", "One", "Stuck in a Moment...", "Staring at the Sun", and "Numb" are provided to yield a total of 28 music videos for 23 songs. As a special treat, three documentaries are included. All in all, this is an amazing DVD.
Details, Shot One ("Conceptual Videos"): The most successful conceptual videos are "Numb" (Godley version), "Please", and "If God Will Send His Angels". The "Numb" video bluntly demonstrates the cause of The Edge's numbness--it's also quite funny and disturbing. "Please" and "If God Will Send His Angels" are probably my favorites. Bono's performance in "Please" is poignant, and the gimic employed by Corbijn works well here. The use of split screen and altered film speed in "If God Will Send..." effectively communicates that awful out-of-sync feeling of being alone among people, even among friends.
"One" deserves special mention. Three videos were made for this. Pellington's version, employed in concert, emphasized buffalos, images of which adorn both the CD and DVD; sadly, this video was NOT included on the DVD. The other two videos are here, and they are interesting. Corbijn's version is notable for having Bono's father playing a major role; in addition, you get to decide which member of U2 would make the most attractive woman--I don't think it's Bono.
Details, Shot Two ("Performance Videos"): What would U2 be without footage of them on stage? Many of these videos, including conceptual ones, feature perforance footage. Some, like "Gone" and "Mofo", are essentially concert videos; I prefer watching these songs on the Zoo TV and PopMart videos. Others, like "Even Better Than the Real Thing", "Mysterious Ways", and "Staring at the Sun", utilize novel filming techniques to
bolster the song's mood or message. Some are more successful than others. For example, at first boring, the strange effects in "Staring at the Sun" (Scott version) become almost revelatory at the end. In "Please" and "One", expressions on The Edge's face at key points of the video are very telling and make the inclusion of performance footage mandatory.
One Drop of Sad: These are minor quibbles. 1) Navigation is sometimes frustrating. You click on the director's name and you get either the video OR the video with commentary. If you click on the triangle beside his name, you definitely get commentary. If you have the same trouble, keep trying; eventually, you will get the straight video. 2) With "Mofo", I had to try accessing the video several times before I heard the soundtrack. "Mofo" was the only video with which I had this problem. 3) Although the box claims subtitles in five languages, I did not find Japanese subtitles actually provided for the songs I checked, and I checked most of them. 4) Some songs, like "Beautiful Day" and "One", had alternate videos. It would have been nice to have ALL versions. (This is a BEST OF anthology, so maybe they only included the best of the alternates?)
Extra Tidbits: The DVD booklet provides interesting, albeit short, notes on each song. The DVD package provides storage space for the U2 The History Mix DVD, that came with the special edition of "The Best of 1990-2002" CD.
In Summary: This is an outstanding DVD. It contains most, arguably the best, of the singles from 1990-2000 with their videos, all of which contain something of at least passing interest and some of which are very powerful. The director commentaries are fascinating and provide valuable behind-the-scenes information. The documentaries are a nice addition. I highly recommend "U2: The Best of 1990-2002"; it's one of the best DVDs I've bought this year.

U2 Live at Red Rocks: Under a Blood Red Sky (2008) Review

U2 Live at Red Rocks: Under a Blood Red Sky (2008)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
It's hard to believe it's been over 20 years since "Blood Red Sky" was filmed. As a couple of other people have posted who were there, it was an amazing event. It felt historic even at the time.
Although the weather is exactly why it's so dramatic with the fog and steam, the entire show was very nearly cancelled because of the conditions. Like one guy mentioned, it was about 35 degrees out at Red Rocks that night, after a full day of cold drizzling rain.
I was the music editor of the local alt.weekly paper at the time, and had been in on some meetings announcing the filming. Barry Fey, the concert's promoter, had been a very early supporter of U2 and booked them into a small 1400-seat theater in Denver when they first toured the US for "Boy." So they liked Fey and wanted to work with him for this Red Rocks gig.
Unfortunately it got cold in the days before the concert. They actually did officially cancel it -- both The Alarm and U2 agreed to play a second, make-up concert the next day in a local arena (DU, I think, or maybe Regis University). But they decided to do the Red Rocks performance anyway because they'd invested so many thousands of dollars for the shoot -- the pyrotchnics (there are normally no fires atop the dramatic sandstone rocks around the stage!), the camera equipment, the technicians.
I'm sure if the filming hadn't been planned, the performance would have been cancelled in a second. I don't remember if the show as sold out (I kind of doubt it), but in the 9,000-seat amphitheater, only about 3,000 people showed up for the filming. The movie does a great job of making it seem like a full house.
It's to Bono and U2's credit that they came out roaring, and to all music fans' benefit that this performance was caught on camera.
I alternated between the 5th row in the middle and the 2nd row over to stage left, and was in awe of what was going on on the stage. U2 simply took it over and made it their own showcase gig, as if they were playing an audition for entrance into heaven. Everything was (I'm sure) unscripted, including the bit with the flag and bringing the girl on stage. It was all natural, just like the setting.
This was just at the point, as some writers have mentioned, where the band was evolving from cult status to superstardom, and they were just hitting their stride.
One thing, though: their performance was hot, but not hot enough to help you forget the cold -- I froze my butt off that night!
As for why no DVD, I wonder how much of it is because of licensing and ownership rights. I don't even know if TTS, the Denver-based production company that managed the shoot, exists anymore. So I wonder who owns the rights to the film.
Perhaps U2, and maybe they don't want it on DVD ultimately because of the made-for-TV audio and video quality.
I happened to stumble on this series of reviews and I'm glad I stopped to read everyone's comments. It brought back a lot of memories, and made me want to root around my basement for my promotional copy of the film from TTS!

Jeff Tweedy - Sunken Treasure - Live in the Pacific Northwest (2006) Review

Jeff Tweedy - Sunken Treasure - Live in the Pacific Northwest (2006)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I am a big Wilco and Jeff Tweedy fan. Those who are familiar with Jeff know he's been doing brief acoustic tours throughout his career with Wilco. It offers him an opportunity to revisit old Wilco and Uncle Tupelo tunes that the current Wilco line-up doesn't perform, or offer up different musical versions of Wilco songs (i.e., Sunken Treasure acoustically is more of a folk finger picking ditty with harmonica included).
The song selection is pretty standard for a Jeff Tweedy acoustic show. Having said that, I wish the songlist was more expansive. Often, at a Tweedy solo acoustic show, you will hear older songs that are played only once or twice even on an acoustic tour (Say You Miss Me, Box Full of Letters), and sometimes you'll hear a cover song or two (Moot the Hoople's Henry & the H-Bombs, Neil Young's Walk On). I wish that was captured as part of the DVD.
As for the DVD itself, it tries to capture the environment and mood of a acoustic tour on the West Coast - i.e., lots of rain, somber feel, etc. The DVD covers several stops on the West Coast and depicts Jeff and the audience/fans attempting to connect in such an intimate setting. At times you can see that Jeff draws some fans/audience members that just aren't suited for a solo acoustic show. Many of these fans are better suited for a loud, rockin' Wilco show versus just Jeff and a guitar where everyone can hear it when an audience member talks over Jeff performing.
If you have seen the Wilco documentary I Am Trying To Break Your Heart, you may already know that Jeff can at times appear to come across as grumpy or as a pill (I've met him once, and he was anything but). I think more than anything, it captures the unpredictable results when Jeff opens his mouth and talks with the audience. He tends to let the music speak for itself (Wilco shows included), and when often he has to remind himself to speak to the audience at Wilco shows. When he does try to talk and build rapport with his audience, he'll either include an amusing story or somehow insult (unintentional perhaps) an audience member. But the sincerity of his singing and performances are never in question. It's that contrast (Jeff's sincerity while singing versus the audience's disrespect and/or ambivelance to his singing) that makes this DVD more than just a concert document. Jeff and Wilco are not megastars, but they are successful musicians (both critically and commercially), and with that comes new fans and/or audience members that come because it's the hip or in thing to do versus wanting to genuinely listen to him perform his songs in a stripped down version.
As for the music, Theologians to me is one of the highlights. It works great as a solo acoustic number versus the equally stunning piano-led rockin' version. In A Future Age is a summerteeth cut that is brilliant when reduced to Jeff's soft vocals and his eastern-influenced pickin'. Airline to Heaven is a solo acoustic favorite of Jeff's fans, here accompanied by Nels Cline on a dobro or lap-steel (I may be mistaken on the instrument). He also accompanies Jeff on War on War along with Glen Kotche on drums.
Bonus - for those that purchase the DVD, there is a link provided that offer audio downloads of the all the songs included on the DVD, along with two bonus songs not included in the DVD, Please Tell My Brother and She's A Jar. Please Tell My Brother is all the more poignant considering Jeff's mother recently passed away and she is the crescendo of the song's lyrics. She's A Jar is simply stunning, and for those who have only come to Wilco's music through Summerteeth, Yankee Hotel Foxtrot, and A Ghost Is Born may be surprised by how well these songs hold up (or in some ways exceed) to the more musically complex, layered, and sonically textured album versions or the renditions found on Wilco's Kicking Television (their recent live CD, also worth a purchase).
You don't want to miss out on this.

Sunken Treasure was recorded over five nights of Wilco leader Jeff Tweedy's February 2006 solo acoustic tour and includes footage from concerts at Seattle's Moore Theater, Portland's Crystal Ballroom, Eugene's McDonald Theater, Arcata's Humboldt State University, and The Fillmore in San Francisco. The songs featured on the DVD are culled from Tweedy's expansive discography, and feature music from all three of his bands: Wilco, Uncle Tupelo, and Loose Fur, plus one previously unreleased track, "The Thanks I Get." The film is directed by Burn to Shine documentarians Christoph Green and Brendan Canty (Fugazi). In the package for the DVD, a link is provided that offers audio downloads of the all the songs included on the DVD, along with two bonus songs not included in the DVD.

Live at the O2 London, England (2009) Review

Live at the O2 London, England (2009)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is a great Kings of Leon Concert DVD, and it ROCKS!!! It was filmed on June 30, 2009, at the "02 Colisium" in London, before a capacity crowd of 18,000 screaming fans. It consists of 22 songs, and has an approximate running time of 100 minutes. This band was featured in the Rolling Stone, a few months ago. Their picture was on the cover. These brothers and cousin - Nathan Followill, Caleb Followill, Jared Followill, & Matthew Followill, were raised in the Southern U.S.A., and currently live in the Nashville area.
This band is currently one of the "hotest" rock bands in the world, and this concert dvd certainly proves why!!! This band has a unique sound, that is all their own. I don't think any other band could duplicate their sound. This concert features some of their songs from the "Only by the Night" Album Cd, along with some of their classics. Plus this band, is one of the best bands to emerge within the current decade. It's an original band with all original songs.
Don't believe the review of this dvd in the current issue of the Rolling Stone (they gave it only a 2 star, and they really didn't know what they were talking about.) This band gives it's all in performing before this 18,000 fan capacity crowd. There are no mediocre performances. This band performs extremely well on each and every song. They knew this was being filmed for a dvd. Their lead man Caleb Followill has some excellent interaction with the crowd. Plus, the crowd is really into this concert. All the songs on this dvd were written by the band members themselves. The Key Tracks include: Use Somebody, Sex on Fire, Notion, Molly's Chambers, On Call and the Bucket. All the other songs are very good also.
This is a GREAT CONCERT DVD, the filming, the sound, the audience are all GREAT, making this one GREAT Concert DVD!!! If you love Rock, you'll love this one. Thanks!!!!

America - A Tribute to Heroes (Telethon Broadcast) (2001)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
I saw this with a group of ten or so friends when it originally aired. We sat there in awe for two hours. I think it was the power of the people who spoke and of those who performed. The DVD was on my wish list nearly immediately after. Their selection of songs, was nearly impeccable. I didn't care for Iglesias mostly because it was more a love song, but maybe it was appropriate to others. The highlights for me were Neil Young doing "Imagine." That alone is worth the admission. Also the appearence of Dennis Franz and Jimmy Smits of "NYPD Blue" standing together like partners again, and talking, appropriately enough, about the cops who risked their lives, and died saving others. Limp Bizkit with Johnny Rzeznik (of Goo Goo Dolls) doing Pink Floyd's "Wish You Were Here" was equally awesome. Fred Durst looked to me like he was talking to us as he sang many of the lyrics. The Boss, Billy Joel, Eddie Vedder (with Neil Young on the organ), Sheryl Crow, Bon Jovi (a spectacular rendition of "Livin' on a Prayer") round out the cream of the crop musically. Superb speeches by Tom Hanks, George Clooney, Jim Carrey, Will Smith and Ali, and many more strike a chord both uplifting, and I think heart-breaking at times. It closes out with awesome speeches by Robert DeNiro (wow!) and Clint Eastwoood (wow! wow!) along with a performance of "God Bless America" by Celine Dion and a moving performance of "America the Beautiful" by Willie Nelson, with backup by everyone present. WOW! is the least I can think of to describe it as a whole. GOD BLESS the USA!

VH1 Storytellers - Matchbox Twenty (2001) Review

VH1 Storytellers - Matchbox Twenty (2001)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
A great look into the mind of Rob Thomas and he describes some of the inspirations behind many of his hit songs. Thomas gets very personal even revealing the fact that he doens't like the sound of his own voice! This DVD features a great mix of songs from their initial album "Yourself or Someone Like you" and the follow up "Mad Season".
The only downside to Matchbox Twenty's storytelling session is the lack of acoustic versions of hit songs; a favorite aspect of mine that blends in nicely with the intimate feel of the show. This is more than made up for with the a country version of push, and nice variations for fans wanting a twist in their favorite CD versions.
The highlight of the show is a piano version of 3AM that will leave you speechless. Seeing Rob alone on the piano after hearing his meaning behind the song brings the audience to tears, and a new appreciation of the song to all who listen.
Overall a great performance by a great band that is sure to please all who watch. VH1's storytellers is always a great show and Matchbox Twenty's episode is no exception so enjoy!

U2 - Zoo TV Live from Sydney (Limited Edition) (2006) Review

U2 - Zoo TV Live from Sydney (Limited Edition) (2006)
Average Reviews:

(More customer reviews)
This is U2 at their creative highpoint. Zoo TV was far ahead of it's time, and is captured very well on this release. Disc 1 is the same as the 1994 VHS release. The video has been cleaned up to todays DVD standards, and is worth getting for that alone. However, the sound has been upgraded as well, and will not disappoint.
The sound is available in Dolby Digital 2.0, Dolby
Digital 5.1, and DTS.
Extra Disc:
'Tryin' To Throw Your Arms Around The World' (4:19) is an edit of several concerts from the ZooTV Tour.
Bonus track 2 is 'Desire' (5:18) from the well-known 'Zoo TV Special' filmed in New York's Yankee Stadium, recorded to promote the ZooTV-Tour.
The Fly' (4:37) and 'Even Better Than The Real Thing' (4:23) are recordings from the Stop Sellafield Concert from 19 June 1992 in Manchester. Both songs have only recently been released on the single for 'City Of Blinding Lights'.
Documentaries:
'A Fistful of Zoo TV' (7:50) is an edit of various scenes from the ZooTV era, while a text tracker informs about the materials used for the stage, PA and
so on. Brief snippets of Mr. MacPhisto are included in the mix, as well as a reference to the ZooTV Confessionals, which are another extra on the DVD.
Zoo TV - The Inside Story (4:11)
Brian Eno and The Edge explain how the idea for ZooTV developed from the video for 'The Fly'.
Trabantland (7:45)
This is the story of the 'Trabbie' and U2's love for it during the time. Paul McGuinness, Anton Corbijn, Bono and others comment.
Extras::
The 'Video Confessional' was located within the
standing area of the stadium shows, and fans were invited to 'confess' - the results being broadcast onto the big screens during the encore break of the show.
This extra is an edit of people from all over the world.
Numb Karaoke (4:13)
A special version of the 'Numb Video Remix' to sing along to! Edge's voice has been cut from the mix, while Bono's (and Larry's) vocals remain in the background.
DVD-Rom:
Inserting DVD 2 into your PC or Mac gives you access to the CD-Rom Extras. These contain two screen savers and four background pictures for different screen
sizes.
Easter Eggs:
One of the Easter Eggs is the 24-minute documentary about U2's history, as originally featured on the 'Achtung Baby - The Videos, the cameos and a
whole lot of interference from ZOO TV' video release under the name
'Interference'. Another Easter Egg is a video (1:15) with pictures about nuclear weapons
and war. More interesting is the third video (4:16) showing a sped-up version of the setting up and taking down of the ZooTV indoor stage.
