5.0 out of 5 stars When a band has fun it translates into great music!, November 7, 2009

This review is from: Soundstage: Ringo Starr and the Roundheads (DVD)

I know there have been multiple live albums made by Ringo Starr and the public can grow weary of seemingly another rehash... Of course my major bias is that I'm a first-generation fan and second; I'll buy practically anything put out by The Beatles. But for this release I'm going to also talk as a musician for this is one heck of a concert release musically speaking. The main element that this performance has going for it is the FUN element. As a musician I've always noticed that when band members are performing with their egos and their "look-how-great-I-am" attitudes not only does it make them look snobbish but it makes for so-so-ho-hum performances. Ringo & The Roundheads are having FUN as they perform. You can actually see band members who are not egotistical at all but rather playing as a unit, knowing that they are links in the chain and pieces of the musical puzzle. They interact with each other and, above all, know that they must provide for Ringo the best possible musical background. Mark Hudson has always been a Beatles' fan and I truly believe that the fact that he's playing with his idol makes him grateful for the opportunity and therefore wants to direct the other musicians into giving his idol the best backup band a guy could have ever asked for.

I could go on and on but the bottom line is that this concert has a fun energy the leaps out at you; pulls you in and, as Sgt. Pepper once said; "A Splendid Time is Guaranteed For All"... If you get only one live Ringo Starr DVD THIS IS THE ONE TO HAVE!...

4.0 out of 5 stars VERY GOOD SHOW BUT BEWARE......., January 18, 2010

This review is from: Soundstage: Ringo Starr and the Roundheads (DVD)

This was indeed a very good show, but as is always the case with PBS broadcasts they are never complete - and this is no exception. Just go to the PBS website to see what I mean. Why they do this is a mystery. Maybe it has to do with certain legal garbage. It still is worthwhile getting even if you'll never see the complete show.
