Signed to a manager at the impressionable age of 16, Georgie Fame (real name: Clive Powell) was destined for stardom, playing an aggressive Jerry Lee Lewis style of piano with his backing band, The Blue Flames.It wasn't until they combined their eclectic musical taste's of jazz, rock and R&B, that they saw #1 hits in the UK, including: "Yeah, Yeah!" and "The Ballad Of Bonnie and Clyde."Now Georgie Fame is making a triumphant comeback with "The Blue Flames." Includes You Came A Long Way From St. Louis, Rocking Chair, Big Brother, Cool Cat Blues, Moondance, Jumpin' with Symphony Sid, Parchman Farm, Yeah Yeah, Cat's Eyes, I Love The Life I Live, How Long Has This Been Going On?

5.0 out of 5 stars Great but flawed DVD, November 9, 2006

This review is from: Georgie Fame and the Blue Flames (DVD)

This is a fantastic DVD. Georgie Fame and class musicians such as Guy Barker on Trumpet put on a great show. There are performances of 60's hits like Yeh Yeh as well as a Mose Allison and Van Morrison songs and a few Jazz standards. So the music is great.

The DVD labelling and Amazon have got this very confused. Amazon say its region 1 and on the DVD case it says all regions and NTSC. I have tried it in a bog standard region 2 player in the UK and it plays fine. SO this is NOT region 1, which is good news if you're one of then many co.uk buyers.

On the DVD case it says Kenny Drew on Piano. Kenny Drew is not on this DVD, it also states its 90 minutes long. Wrong again its 60 minutes long. There is also no sign of when this recording was made, but I would guess it was recorded about 10 years ago.
