The blow of how boring this all is softened somewhat by their better-than-usual choices for visuals to accompany long parts of music that go along with the film.

NOFX Backstage Passport (Sharp Entertainment/Fat Wreck Chords)

dvd_johnny-cash.jpgThe recent release by Shout! Factory of the Johnny Cash Christmas Specials for 1978 and 1979 is a welcome addition to the growing number of variety shows available on DVD.

Daft Punk | Electroma (Vice)

dvd_daft-punk.jpgWhile most musical acts at that time were moving away from synethesizers and drum machines, the two were just beginning to experiment with them on a whole new level.

 

 

Dead Boys: Return of the Living Dead Boys: Halloween Night 1986

Written by Jason Neubauer Monday, 21 April 2008 00:51

dvd_deadboys.jpgThe set list alternates from fast-tempo flare ups of energy back to slow crooning that, quite honestly, leaves much to be desired.

 

   

The Donovan Concert! Live in L.A. (MVD Visual)

Rhett Miller | On Stage at World Café Live (Decca Vision)

| Print |

Written by Laura Hamlett Saturday, 28 July 2007 10:57

rhettBacking band the Believers don't even make an appearance until the 13th track. What this means, then, is 11 solo acoustic songs, one with a bonus female co-lead, followed by four absolutely captivating and rocking tunes. Kind of an uneven choice for a live DVD.

 

 

 

 

 

   

Duncan Sheik | On Stage at World Café Live (Decca Vision)

| Print |

Written by Laura Hamlett Saturday, 28 July 2007 10:54

sheikWith a full band for most of the 12 songs, Sheik and his players deliver a short evening's worth of pleasant if not quite passionate performances.

 

 

 

 

 

 

Leonard Cohen | Under Review 1934-1977 (Sexy Intellectual)

| Print |

Written by Byron Kerman Tuesday, 29 May 2007 02:35

dvd_cohenCohen's supposed appreciation for the mysteries of women comes off time and again more like that of a callous braggart with a Sharpie in a men's room stall. If he wasn't one of the most gifted lyricists rock has ever known, he would be left to write with his dick. "Sexy Intellectual," indeed.

 

 

 

 

 

 

   

Guns N' Roses: The DVD Collector's Box (Chrome Dreams)

dvd_gnrWith Axl Rose, we want to remember the Axl in the black-and-white "Sweet Child O' Mine" video, not the bloated, corn-rowed Axl in his last high-profile appearance, winded and sweaty after a semi-rousing set of "Rocket Queen" at the 2003 MTV VMAs. We want to remember Adler, Izzy, and the summer of '88 when the Gunners broke loose of the Sunset Strip scene.
