5.0 out of 5 stars RINGO AND HIS BEST ALL STARR BAND VIDEO, August 16, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Ringo Starr and His Fourth All-Starr Band [VHS] (VHS Tape)

It has been ten years since Ringo Starr hited the road for the first time with his All Satrr Band. Now MPI provide us with one of his best performances. Peter Frampton, Jack Bruce, Gary Brooker, Mark Riviera, Simon Kirke and Ringo proves that the experience of years in the business makes the diference in the end. Ringo plays his usual material, but his drumming is just great! it worked so well with Simon Kirke and the other members of the band. Jack Bruce comes along with his "cream" songs: In a White Room, I Feel Free; Frampton plays the best of his career. A great night for the lovers of music. I still miss a video from the Third All Starr Band with John Entwistle, Mark Famer, Randy Bachman among others. Shine on Ringo!

5.0 out of 5 stars A suprisingly great concert, April 12, 2002

This review is from: Ringo Starr and His Fourth All-Starr Band [VHS] (VHS Tape)

This video was recorded in May of 1998 at the Pine Knob Music Theatre near Detroit. I know...I was there for the show.

I went with a friend, she being a Peter Frampton nut and I being a Beatlemanic. Having seen the All-Starr Band before (the first tour), and not being all that impressed, my hopes weren't to high for this show.

I couldn't have been more suprised or delighted.

The usual huge band was stripped down to Ringo, Frampton, Cream's Jack Bruce on bass, Simon Kirke (free/Bad Company) also on drums, Gary Brooker of Procul Harum fame on keyboards, and Mark Rivera (noted side man who's played everything with everybody).

Now with this kind of a line-up, you could imagine that there'd be big clash of the egos, but not so. This was a BAND in the biggest sense; the chemestry was amazing, everyone on stage was clearly having a great time and threw themselves into the performance, whether they were the soloist or not.

Most notable were Brooker's solo performance of "A Salty Dog" and a great version of "Conquistador"; Frampton's accoustic rendering of "Norwegan Wood" and the jam of "Do You Feel Like We Do" with stunning solos from Brooker, Bruce and Frampton; Kurke's rousing delivery of "Shooting Star" and Bruce's turns on "Sunshine of Your Love" and "White Room" with Frampton out-Clapton-ing Clapton. Ringo, of course, was drumming away in the back, smiling all the time, and clearly having fun with his solo turns.

Although this was Ringo's show, and all gave great performances, the real star here was Frampton. His guitar work was uniformily excellent throughout the concert. The ironic part is that he truly shone while backing everyone else up.

This spirited and often stunning performance was fortunately captured here on video. The show was as we saw it at Pine Knob; no edits or alterations. It's shot and edited a bit roughly at points, but the magic and fun of the performance was captured rather well. That's all that counts.

An excellent concert caught on tape...highly recommended. You'll walk away from this as we did from Pine Knob; suprised and delighted.
