Summary: Children alert- soft porn
Review: Ok, I was a bozo. I thought since this DVD was on Amazon and that because Playboy has branched out into non porn stuff that this was just an ordinary Karaoke. Wrong- this is definitely not for family viewing. You may wonder what naked ladies have to do with the themes of Beatles songs. I did too.And you will still be wondering after seeing the DVD. Save your money unless it turns your crank to catch glimpses of the chests of various Barbie wannabes squirming around in front of a soft focus lens. Okay, so I wasn't counting on the nekid ladies. But I was counting on "Songs by the Beatles, Neil Sedaka, Elvis, Frank Sinatra and more". Well, I struck out again. Unlike other DVDs which honestly point out that the recordings are not by the original singers, this description may lead you to believe that you will get what I think most Karaoke customers want: a high quality video with music by the original performers which can have one or all of the vocals muted. Not on this DVD- all are impersonators. Some are not too bad though. I don't think Amazon is to blame- they probably just copied some misleading promotional description from the vendor. As for the DVD features, the basic karaoke options are there. You can selectively mute out the vocals using track 2. The third track puts music on the left channel and vocals on the right. Unfortunately, the music tracks provide only a background rhythm without any melody line, so there are no cuing clues to aid the singers in knowing when to sing the next line. Lastly, I could not figure out how to switch to other tracks such as music only using my DVD player. I could do it fine playing it on the computer. Tracks: "Beattles"- Let it Be, Hey Jude, Michelle, Ticket to Ride, Yesterday, In my Life, Twist and Shout, Long and Winding Road "Sedaka"- Breaking up is hard to do, Calendar Girl, "Presley"- Don't be cruel "Sinatra"- and now for the "More!" section: "Humperdink!"- Release me "Avalon (you know, Frankie)"- Venus
