2.0 out of 5 stars Not enough of Jake playing the ukulele., March 17, 2006

This review is from: Million Miles Away (DVD)

I thought this DVD would feature Jake playing his ukulele more than an exhibition of creative camera work that really took away from the intent of the viewer who came to see Jake's techniques and stylings. I wanted to see Jake's fingering methods, and a complete presentation of some of his more popular numbers. Instead, I felt frustrated when most of the DVD showed only gimpses of Jake, often showing his back, face, and other shots of people and things. Everything except showing his ukulele playing which I thought this DVD was all about. I wish I was able to preview this DVD before I purchased it.

Jake Shimabukuro is a very talented and entertaining ukulele performing artist! Each one of Jake's CDs and DVDs are items everyone should purchase. I highly recommend seeing Jake Shimabukuro live in concert, since it is a show you will never forget!

I was pretty dissapointed with this DVD. I am a huge Jake fan and I've seen him play live 3 times, so the dvd definitely does not live up to those experiences. If you are looking for a good Jake dvd, Play Loud is much better. This dvd seems like someone followed him around with a home video camera and then just made a dvd out of it. Its more of him walking around talking to people, than it is him playing music. It's ok toward the end when it shows him playing in a small restaurant, and you actually get to see him play. This dvd should be a million miles away from you dvd collection.
