Some Great Performances October 9, 2008 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
With twenty-six songs in surround sound, the sound is perfect for displaying the oldies live like you've never heard them before. Rod Argent plays his very oldie, `She's Not There" with a near perfect rendition. Of course, he also supplies the seventies monster hit, "Hold Your Head Up", a completely different style of music. Sheila E. gets her kicks in frequently as a super-percussionist, teaming up with and sometimes replacing Ringo Starr on drums. Her, "The Glamorous Life" is a nice powerful performance with a great finale. Billy Squire who has never really been a huge hit, performs very, very well with his signature songs, "Everybody Wants You" and "Rock Me Tonight", obviously relishing every piece he shares intimately wit the audience. My favorite has to be the wild and weird Edgar Winter who does a great job on, `Free Ride", but brings the house down with his wild rendition of, "Frankenstein, playing both keyboards, saxophone and a duel percussion with Sheila E. To watch this giant guy recreate that classic song with all the special effects and synthesizes is worth the DVD alone. Sheila E. does a great powerhouse job on the drum solo as well as playing duel percussion with Winter. Multi-talented Richard Marx and Hamish Stuart round out the band playing on nearly every song. Of course, Ringo Starr gets his famous songs in, like, `Photograph", "Yellow Submarine" and A little Help From My Friends" and more. The only drawback is the frequent interruptions with interviews from each of the musicians and Ringo Starr, but the music makes up for that minor inconvenience.
An excellent show August 20, 2008 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
This is a great DVD. I was lucky enough to get to the US to see Ringo' s 2008 shows which were tremendous fun and from seeing this DVD it looks like the 2006 line-up was just as good. Ringo and his band mates are all on top form and look like they are having a good time on stage. The range of songs fit well together and I really enjoy them all. I particularly liked hearing some of Ringo's newer songs like Never without you, Choose love and Memphis in your mind as well as the usual numbers like Photograph, It don't come easy, Yellow submarine etc. Their inclusion on this DVD is why I preferred this to the CD from the same tour which has less songs on it. Of the other performers contributions I particularly liked Billy Squier's Everybody wants you, Edgar Winter's Frankenstein and Rod Argent's Hold your head up. The brief interviews between each song are interesting, although it would have been useful to have a concert only option as well. The extras backstage are also fun.
