112.Tina Live In Europe by: Tina Turner

Used Price: £4.69

The 'Stadium Rock' phase of the 1980s was pretty much totally male dominated with one exception - and she needs no introduction! In this two CD set, Tina Turner proves exactly why people still go crazy for her concert tickets.

From the storming opening track 'What You Get Is What You See' to the soothing ending of 'Paradise Is Here', Turner demonstrates what live performing is all about with her trademark energy and drive.

She is the very definition of entertainment, giving herself completely to the audience - from sharing her life to allowing glimpses into her soul.

One of the best live albums ever made!

I first bought this CD just after seeing Kylie Live in January 2007. My first live concert ever. I'd seen parts of the original showgirl concert before, but never expected the show to be as good as what it actually was. The sheer excitement in the arena was amazing, and you can actually feel that on this live album. The thunderous applaud at the beginning is just like the standing ovation Kylie recieved at the actual show I attended, before bursting into Better The Devil You Know. Never since have I seen a standing ovation in a concert. Her voice is crisp and strong on this tour, miles better than the Showgirl Tour, infact it's sort of like on the Fever Tour, for anybody reading this who has bought that DVD. The music is awesome, and the setlist ... Read More:

Great music - as prev reviews.

But NOTE this is a Copy Control CD (although that fact is cynically hidden on the packaging!), rather than a proper legal red-book CD. It will not play in most computer cd drives, and may not play in in-car CD players. Some new - and expensive - hifi CD players specifically do not guarantee to be able to play these CD lookalikes.

I've dropped my rating from 5 to 1 star because of the deception.

Google for "Copy Control CD" to learn more about what you are actually getting here before parting with the cash!

Make no mistake. If you like Portishead, you HAVE to get this DVD. Out of maybe 30 music DVDs I own, this stands in my Top5 for sure. Excellent video/audio quality, excellent performance, Beth's singing is greater than ever, the orchestra is a plus, and all these mini movies/videoclips at the extras are also great. The playlist is heavily focused in the "Portishead" album (which is a plus for me).

If you like Portishead, get this Dvd and then you will love them! That's what happened to me anyway..

Back in the day, I loved everything about The Housemartins. Their music was obviously great but it was that and their stubborness against 'being' cool that made them so cool. I remember them being very spotty and then singing gospel acapellas on the "Good Afternoon" show on ITV and still coming across as so much more clued up than most of the other bands around this time. Their Little BBC documentary 'London 0 Hull 4" which was shown as part of "Rock around the clock" day in 1986 was taped and re-watched many times and it effortlessly captures a bleak North of Thatcher's England in a time when kids still played football in the street and kaghouls were the height of fashion. The Housemartins preached Marx and pushed socialism as easily as they enthused about Jesus, ... Read More:

Love at the Greek is the culmination of energy and vocal maturity at the peak of his career. The Jonathan Livingston seagul medley is in my view the highlight of the album and certainly a valuable add-on to the original album. In this masterpiece he touches the audience with his heart, singing with sheer emotions, true to the sticky note that said "Remember Hal, I don't only want to be his voice, but his heart." Of course, the other songs, such as Glory Road are valuable to any ND collection too.

Jeff Buckley is renound for a number of things, his incredable voice, his talented songwriting and unfortunately the earily similar circumstances in which both he and his father died. On this recording another one of this great artists abilities is demonstrated: that being to capture, enthrall and strangely hypnotize an audiance. There may well be only four tracks here but in that space of time one man armed with his telecaster, an amp with a superb onboard reverb unit(he couldn't do it with complete junk now could he, no-one could) and no doubt a few drinks he conjures up all sorts of emotions and if listening to the record is this powerfull I can only imagine that sitting in the room with the man would have been nothing less than transcendant as has been documented. ...

Brilliant Cd brought back alot of teenage memories. My first Wonderstuff concert was at Granby Halls Leicester, which was the one recorded. Miles Hunt as Always better live and interacting with the audience.

Really a high water mark for pre-MTV Cure and a decent round off of the period before the arrival of Boris Williams. I'm loath to give any album five stars as that implies perfection, so four'll have to do.
There will always be complaints from completists about the absence of certain tracks (Boys don't cry), but as a representation of a Cure live show this is pretty good.
The unsung hero of this album is the drummer Andy Anderson, who is generally seen as a footnote in the band's history. His performance on "A Forest", while straight foward, provides a perfect backing for Robert's guitar and he seems to have a perfect feel for the songs. For want of a better word, he actually makes the band swing.
Highly recommended
