Rating: Summary: Call to all MelonHeads Review: This video kicks ass! It brings you one last look at Shannon and the rest of the bands magical performances. It gives you a great look behind the sceenes of the band. If you like the clips on the Nico CD then you love the flick because it is the full version of all those clips. It also has a few very good concert performances. Like "Change" on the David Letterman show just days after the death of Kurt Cobain and "No Rain" with the ripped away version to start off on Saturday Night Live. You also get to see the guitar master and Shannon's high school band mate Michael Kelsey slappin' the drums on "St. Andrews Hall" in a up close unplugged setting. Check it out it is a must for all MelonHeads and anybody who loves rock music at its best. Long live BM.
Rating: Summary: Great DVD, Great live performances Review: What a [darn] shame Shannon Hoon had to die so young. With the exeption of "No Rain", the public has no idea what a great band this is. For all the fans that are out there, this DVD has it all. Great live performances, interviews with the whole band, great backstage footage, every video the band has made, including the greatest song they recorded, "Galaxy". All the live stuff is GREAT, with performances of "CHANGES" from David Letterman, some footage from Woodstock, and the awesome performance of "No Rain" from Saturday Night Live. All the performances sound great, and Shannon Hoon is an excellent performer. I wish I had gotten the chance to see them while he was still alive. Almost every song from "Soup" is included, which I think is one of the best albums ever, so I was happy to see that. There is a great performance of "LEMONADE" which is unbelievable. The DVD runs about an hour and 20 minutes. If your a fan, this is a GREAT DVD.
Rating: Summary: must see for any blind melon fan Review: Years after Blind Melon's front man's demise the band releases Letters a movie which captures Blind Melon not only at their best but also at their not so good. The band achieved showing Blind Melon fans who they were and who Shannon was. The viewer picks up on Shannons drug use during their live performances in which they perform Walk(soup) and cover Velvet Undergrounds After Hours. They also manage to show Shannons happiness and free-ness by showing Shannon naked numerous times. The Blind Melon boys are extremely talented with great personalities which were caputured by home video many times. Blind Melon fans will not be disappointed!!!
Rating: Summary: Aguante Blind Melon ! Review: Yo no tube la oportunidad de verlos en vivo, pero dejenme decirles que este video refleja toda la fuerza y las ganas que le ponia Shannon a los recitales de la banda. Es un video que no debe faltar en la videoteca de los amantes de la buena musica y los buenos musicos. Es una gran pena que no podamos escuchar en estos dias la musica de estos muchachos... Shannon, en paz descanse...Un beso a todos, Pedemontti.-
