HMV obviously decided to send it out early to try to beat the expected royal mail strikes. It worked, as the dvd arrived the day before the strikes were supposed to happen (but were called off).

Unfortunately, yes, the dvd was recorded very early on in the tour. I saw them at Cardiff just over a week after this was recorded, and also at Manchester towards the end and, in my opinion, both the quality of the sound, and the 'act' became better, and more polished as the tour progressed. I'm not saying that the dvd isn't good, but not as good as the shows that I attended later on.

Hello,
My DVD, pre-ordered from Amazon, arrived yesterday (Friday). Not had chance to give it a spin yet, though!

I have just finished watching the DVD including the bonus feature, and I must say "WOW" what a great production.

I would like to say my thank you's to THE SHADOWS and Warren Bennett & Mark Griffiths true professionals I marvelled over Brian Bennett I will never be a drummer but I was knocked out by the sure energy he has. I am 42 years old I feel tired just watching him. These guys Hank Bruce Brian are really special and I really mean it. Cliff is a born entertainer great sense of humour and at 69 years old he has the energy of a 20 year old.

I was seven years old when I first heard them together (1974) it got me interested in playing guitar, I have to say that modern music of today can learn a massive amount from just watching this DVD and their performances. Is it just me but the camera work was fantastic it made me feel as though I was actually there.

Rock On! Cliff, Hank, Bruce, Brian, Warren and Mark.

This DVD will be played for infinity and beyond.

Thank you very much.
