The Beach Boys - Good Timin' (Live at Knebworth, England 1980)

ASIN: B00008HCB8 Release Date: 2003-03-25 |

It's entertaining, nostalgic, even poignant... not much more one could ask for from a Beach Boys concert. This 70-minute concert was the last time the complete group (brothers Brian, Carl and Dennis Wilson, Al Jardine, Mike Love, and Bruce Johnston, plus backing musicians) would appear in the U.K., performing a mix of oldies ("California Girls," "Help Me Rhonda," "Fun, Fun, Fun," etc.) and some newer material. And if the show itself is somewhat pedestrian, it's still marvelous to see the three Wilsons together onstage, especially in view of the subsequent deaths of Dennis (in '83) and Carl (in '98), and Brian's eventual triumphant recovery from mental and emotional problems. To hear Carl sing so beautifully on "God Only Knows," or Dennis play drums with such power and emotion, or Brian, vacant but game, contribute a few lines to "Surfer Girl"... well, it might just bring a tear to your eye. --Sam GrahamCustomer Reviews:

Marvin Gaye - Live in Montreux 1980

ASIN: B000094J89 Release Date: 2003-05-20 |

Marvin Gaye might not have been the obvious invitee to the 1980 Jazz Festival in Montreux, but this DVD of his appearance there is as good a document as any currently available of the soul sage at the height of his talents. Gaye is joined on stage by a full band replete with backup singers and horn section, all resplendent in their late-'70s fashion statements. While the continual onslaught of overhead lighting is reminiscent of a concert in a high school gym, Gaye isn't letting anything get in his way as he lays down groove after groove of his most beloved material. He fights to keep "I Heard It Through the Grapevine" fresh even if it's his zillionth time plaintively administering that age-old news. The whole concert brims with an energy that only climbs higher in the finale as Gaye electrifies with "Mercy Mercy Me" and takes his sweet time with his classic "What's Going On," in which he even includes a soul-searching monologue that answers with some finality that nagging question: what's it all about? Live at Montreux is a must for fans and connoisseurs of soul alike. --Karl WachterCustomer Reviews:

Flashes of the old Todd.......2004-04-09
It's Todd's dilemma, you see. He's torn between his innate desire to please his fans (you know who you are!), to give them what they want - ie him - and his genuine hope for the success of the band Utopia. So even his career at that time is also encapsulated in this song. It starts explosively, a well-known classic that we all know by heart, even down to the qiver in Todd's voice. But then the rest of Utopia join in and screw up the song, and Todd (almost shamefully) picks up his guitar and slides back into the band for the big guitar solo at the end (we get to keep at least this much).
On the other hand, if you actually like Utopia, then like the Curate's Egg, it's good in parts. Luckily very large parts - of very Utopian keyboard solos, skreechy Todd guitar riding over the top - but the soundtrack is slightly muddy, and the band (distinctly, IMHO) go out of tune through some of the songs...and don't seem to notice! Also Roger Powell sings like the only song videos he's ever watched are AOR Power-ballads, C&W...and Bee Gees. Kasim's much better behaved, quite fetching (I've been told by a female acquaintance) in those white pants. But for me the crowning disappointment is the way Todd's hand-held mike cuts out just into "Love Is The Answer", missing out the first lines of the song. My favourite Todd song.
But it's a good video none the less. A great chance to see a live performance by an artist/artists that you may only have heard before.
Advanced for it's time, but shows its age.......2004-02-19
The video exists primarily as it was simulcast live on local Columbus cable TV called "QUBE", which was waaay advanced for its time. When watching, one must remember, this is 24 years old now and looks a bit dated, but was pretty cutting edge for its day.
The sound and video quality is sub-par when compared to today's standards. The performance is spirited with an adoring crowd. There were on-stage technical problems, but there was a lot on everyone's plate that night. Video cameramen with any experience onstage with the band was pretty rare in those days.
I remember leaving the show elated, thinking it was one of the best I'd ever seen, and spent lots of time trying to explain the theatrical elements to friends who weren't there. Now, 24 years later, there's a DVD!! I bought it strictly for nostalgia/momento purposes (actually more like a souviner, since I was actually there).
