Summary: Great Show & Sound
Review: This is one of the best DVD availble for sound and direction of a live show. The reunion tour of Roxy showcased great performances and songs by amazing musicians. Play it loud!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: If Only I Could Give This Ten Stars!
Review: Where do I begin? For me, this is an absolutely amazing performance! As a long time Roxy fanatic, this is something to be cherished.
Bryan Ferry and Roxy Music have provided the soundtrack to my life for the last decade. This may seem odd considering that I am only in my mid-twenties and all throughout high school and college, while my classmates were listening to the depressing grunge stylings of Nirvana, or Ganster Rap, or, worse, Dave Matthews, I was indulging my passion for avant-garde rock made in the 70's and 80's.
Whether it was desperately trying to swoon young women (usually in vain) to Avalon, or total, drunken debauchery with their first, eponymous album,Roxy Music was always present in my everyday life and, particularly, in my social circles. Country Life and Vodka & Tonics seemed to go hand in hand.
In the summer of 2001, while I was in the midst one of my most memorable summers to date, I got to see my aging icons live in concert...twice! This is something I never dreamed imaginable. It was undoubtedly the greatest concert experience I have ever witnessed.
But enough of this sentimental mumbo-jumbo! Whether Roxy Music has or hasn't been the soundtrack to your life, or whether you are twenty-something or fifty-something, this is a terrific souvenir of one of the most talented and influential bands of all time. Original members Ferry, Manzanera, Mackay and Thompson are backed by a group of very talented young musicians. The audience goes wild and so will you! Start to finish, this is an amazing concert! As an added bonus, the backstage documentary is a terrific and often humorous look inside it all...
Don't wait....Get this DVD!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Incredible show! Wonderful picture and sound!
Review: You don't have to be a fan of the great Roxy Music to appreciate this wonderful DVD. I was blown away by the picture quality and the sound. The songs selected for the concert are superb. I always wondered, however,why Roxy never played the great "More Than This" live. Even on their 1982-1983 tour "The high Road" they didn't have it on their play list. It is sorely missed here too!

It was nice to see Bryan Ferry at the keyboards on a number of songs.

This DVD is a must have for DVD concert enthusists and Roxy fans. It is nice to see an NTSC Region 1 release finally for this great DVD.
