Good Clean Fun.......2007-06-02

My toddler and I are enjoying this DVD immensely! So much that's available to watch includes excitement or lessons about life but not good clean fun and happiness. This DVD is a reminder to me of the more carefree attitude I had as a child and which seems to be lacking in most children older than seven years of age today. We also love Heigh Ho! Sing-Along Songs and Disneyland Fun. The old Disney songs and movies encouraged healthy imagination, and all of these reflect that in the songs.

The Truth About What Is On Supercalifragilisticexpialidocous.......2005-10-27

On January 3 an all new Disney DVD named Supercalifragilisticexpialidocous will be released on a one - disc set. When you buy this DVD get ready to rock! The songs on Supercalifragilisticexpialidocous are Jolly Holiday, Pink Elephants on Parade, Jolly Holiday and I Love to Laugh. Enjoy!

Amazon.com essential video

Picture this: a television screen filled with an image of a mature woman's hand holding the hand of an adolescent girl. Then those hands--and their owners, Barbra Streisand and 15-year-old look-alike and singing sensation Lauren Frost--ascend a flight of stairs that leads (suggestively, at least) to destiny itself. A third of the way up, Barbra releases her surrogate child-self... and watches as the latter climbs the rest of the way, disappearing into her future of possibilities.

Wow. Who else but Streisand could still pull off such an audacious moment of sentimental psychodrama, the way that only a true star could? Yet nestled within the autobiographical meringue of the legendary singer's Millennium's-End concert, performed at the MGM Grand Hotel in Las Vegas on December 31, 1999, that scene--and many other such self-referential moments reliving the sundry chapters of Streisand's life and career--is quite moving in its laid-bare honesty. A fuller experience than listening to the double CD of the concert, this video record of a magical night (does anyone remember our collective Y2K anxieties that New Year's Eve?) provides the most bang for the buck when it comes to reliving all those special scenes: surprise guest appearances (Barry Gibb, Bryan Adams, Neil Diamond, and Streisand's son, Jason Gould), duets with Judy Garland and Frank Sinatra (via video footage, of course), an appearance by dance master Savion Glover as Brother Time, a humorous bit with Shirley MacLaine, and several collaborations with Frost. If Timeless: Live from the MGM Grand was indeed, as Streisand claimed, the first step of a short farewell tour that ended in early 2000, it was the perfect way to exit the stage forever. --Tom Keogh

Description

Barbra at her very best.......2007-03-10

Possibly one of the greatest concerts of all time. Even non Streisand lovers have to attest to that. Contains all of her classics some with new musical arrangements. Her rendition of Somewhere is 'heavenly'. A great addition to any collection. Do yourself a favour and buy it now!

THE BEST BARBRA CONCERT EVER !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2006-09-14

NOT ONLY IS THIS THE GREATEST BARBRA CONCERT, BUT THIS IS A FANTASTIC SHOW! JUST PLAIN BRILLIANT! I REALLY CAN'T SAY ENOUGH. I HAVE ALL HER CONCERTS AND THIS ONE IS SPECTACULAR!!

DON'T WAIT........BUY IT!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

great.......2006-05-13

i first saw this concert at madison square garden on september 27 th 2000 the first night of one of barbra streisand's farwell concerts in new york. it was great seeing barbra live but i wasn't sitting in the good seats which everyone calls the blood nosed seats. i first saw the las vegas concert on valentines day of 2001 but they cut out the scene when barbra was talking to shirley mclaine but i loved it anyway bacause barbra wasn't the size of an ant this time. then i coupple of years laiter i bought it on dvd and enjoyed it even more. barbra has been my idol since i was 5 years old.

Barbra's timeless concert .......2006-03-11

It is hard to confuse Barbra Streisand's voice with someone else's. Whatever song style she sings - you can always recognize her and this is a sign of a gifted singer. Barbra Streisand is very artistic and natural on the stage, acting as if she is living it. Very good concert.

Absolutely Barbra.......2004-05-01

Barbra Streisand is my favorite actress/singer. In this "Timeless" DVD, it's as if I've met her personally! In the concert itself, she have shown some of the things that she passed through her life. Starting with the recording studio, a 15-year old Barbra was played by Lauren Frost. She even sang songs from the Broadway, such as Miss Marmelstein, Don't Rain on My Parade, and Second Hand Rose. Also her Academy-award winner song, "Evergreen". In the ActII, she had a video of the highlights in her career..."The Main Event/Fight", "People" and "Send in the Clowns". Watch this concert...and you'll experience the ABSOLUTE BARBRA ever...!

It should come as no shock that a collection of Luther Vandross videos is entitled From Luther with Love, for this is a pop singer so unabashedly romantic that he makes other soul crooners (the late Barry White, for instance) seem like monks in comparison. The 15 videos collected here span some 20 years of Vandross' career, starting with 1981's "Never Too Much." The quality varies; the earlier items, like "Stop to Love," are fairly primitive by today's standards, while more recent videos ("Your Secret Love") are beautifully shot, with the kind of moody lighting and sophisticated vibe that perfectly suit the singer's lush, sensuous style. But whether he's in concert ("Always and Forever," "Superstar"), on his own, or dueting with another singer ("There's Nothing Better than Love" with Gregory Hines; "Endless Love" with a typically over-the-top Mariah Carey), Luther Vandross is lost in love--even the one tune where things appear to go wrong ("It's Over Now") is nothing but a bad dream. Bonus material includes the usual bio, discography, and photos, along with interviews (though not with Vandross himself), a couple of extra songs, and more. --Sam Graham

A Fitting Tribute To Luther Vandross.......2006-07-26

After Luther passed away last year, I purchased this DVD. We waited a whole year to the first anniversary of his homegoing, set up the stereo system, queued the DVD. We then sat back with drink and munchies and began our tribute to Luther Vandross.

The collection of songs transversed from his solo hit "Never Too Much" to the concerts at Carnegie Hall. Breathtaking, pure Luther, classy and sassy. The interviews were precious, and the "House Is Not A Home" live performance brought us all to tears.

I brought another copy of this DVD to give to my cousin who enjoyed the DVD so much that I want her and her husband to be able to enjoy Luther's legacy anytime they desire.

This is a phenomenal collectors item. The voice fills your room and his presence fills your heart. A must have for all Luther fans.

This Program has a variety of Rieus Songs, that from other dvds are on. It takes some of the most beautiful and romantic Songs of him and puts them on to one convenient dvd. Everyone who is a fan should buy.

Dont buy this DvD.......2005-11-28

As mentioned in the other review, this DVD is a real ripoff! 5 of the 14 songs are from "Andre rieu in tuscany" and the rest are music videos of andre walking around the european country side. Andre is an amazing conductor and musician, but he is at his best when playing live in front of a huge crowd. I would strongly recommend against buying this particular DVD and would suggest that you buy his live concert ones.

This is a rerun.......2005-02-17

If you have other Andre Rieu DVDs, save your money.
The cuts are from previous DVDs. I really like almost
everything he's done, but I feel this is a ripoff.
Maybe the next DVD will have something new, and I'll be
waiting in line to buy it. Three stars just because it's
Andre.

There were a lot of bald heads, bad backs, and big bellies crowded into Pittsburgh's Benedum Center for the Performing Arts, both onstage and off, for this November 2002 concert, and it's apparent that everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. And how could it be otherwise, when artists and audience members of a certain (i.e., middle) age get together for a 107-minute soul/R&B revue that encompasses two or three decades of terrific songs and performances? Originally broadcast by PBS, the 18-song show includes everything from soul standards like "Respect" (sung by a rather hefty but still effective Aretha Franklin) to disco hymns like Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and Thelma Houston's magnificent "Don't Leave Me This Way," with a few ballad chestnuts (Blue Magic's "Side Show," Peaches and Herb's "Reunited") added for good measure. OK, so some of these folks are a bit past their primes. But for the most part, this program (which includes several backstage interviews) is less about nostalgia than simply having a darn good time. --Sam Graham

Muffled vocals ruin an otherwise enjoyable concert.......2006-02-17

The line up of 60's and 70's soulsters is interesting - an eclectic mixture of the well known and the not so famous. The backing orchestration and vocals are excellent. However, everything unravels when the lead vocals commence. The singers all sound as if there was a curtain between them and the microphone when the recordings were made. It is not just a matter of 60 year old vocal chords being weaker than 20 year old. It is not the obvious lack of proper balance between the audience noise and the music. The simple problem is that the vocals were not mixed at the correct volume. I can understand such a problem with a 1960 concert. This is a 2003 production! I am perplexed.

This album really rocks,with just so much rhythm,love and soul."wow".......2006-01-06

The rhythm love and soul collection ,is one of the best concerts i have ever seen.I received the whole set which includes part two,which is not part of this set..Volume one is great.You will find yourself watching this dvd over and over again.The sound and picture quality of the concert is excellent. and i highly recommend this dvd...5 star rated.

This October 2000 follow-up to 1998's My Favorite Broadway: The Leading Ladies allows the gentlemen in, but that's not always an advantage. Sure, Michael Crawford developed a great following as the Phantom and Nathan Lane is a comedian nonpareil, but Tom Wopat, Brent Spiner, Peter Gallagher, Adam Pascal, and Ron Raines, while all fine performers with good resumés, simply can't match the marquee power of the original's Liza Minnelli, Audra McDonald, Jennifer Holliday, Nell Carter, and many others. And even when old vets appear, Robert Goulet seems closer to Las Vegas than Lancelot, and Barry Manilow (mostly making his name as a composer these days) looks pretty awkward. That said, this is still an enjoyable live show from New York's City Center (also available on CD). Among the ladies returning, Rebecca Luker and Marin Mazzie shine in songs from the revivals they star in, and super diva Linda Eder raises the roof with a three-song medley. And there are other additions to the roster, one legend, Chita Rivera (reprising her "English Teacher" from Bye Bye Birdie), and one up-and-comer, Heather Headley (sharing her "Elaborate Lives" duet with Aida costar Pascal).

But the first 100 minutes is all prologue, anyway. The real star is the host, Julie Andrews, who also hosted the original show and conspicuously did not sing in it, following her infamous, lawsuit-laden vocal-cord surgery that effectively ended her music career. Throughout the evening she teases the audience, reciting lyrics and making references to My Fair Lady. So when Crawford begins the finale, "I've Grown Accustomed to Her Face," and Andrews enters, the audience holds its breath: Will she or won't she? It's an electric moment, and perfect theater. --David Horiuchi

Superb Cast and Mesmerizing Performances.......2007-03-24

A star-studded performance of Broadway love songs. Although I cannot recognise most of these great artists, I am most impressed by their great performances and stage presence. To name a few of the impressive numbers: The elegant Julie Andrews's lyrics reciting was special; The Three Mo' Tenors, singing La Donne E mobile followed by Let the Good Times Roll, mixed fun and serious singing superbly well. Joan Hess's wonderful dancing against the piano accompaniment of Smoke Gets in Your Eyes was graceful, nostalgic as well as modern. Her beautiful stature is like a painting. All in all, this is an eye-opening and highly entertaining experience and the DVD quality, both audio and visual, is excellent.

Broadway Songs.......2006-03-24

I liked the DVD which I basically got for two reasons: Julie Andrews and Michael Crawford. I was introduced to new performers on Broadway, which I do not have the opportunity to visit at all. The quality of the CD is great.

Love Songs?.......2005-12-11

This is one of those things where you have to have to aquire a taste for it. Sure there are some songs that are definitely a good add to any Broadway collection, but if you're a classical Broadway fan you might be a little...disappointed.
The singers include-
Nathan Lane
Chita Riviera
Michael Crawford
Robert Goulet
Bebe Neuwirth
Marin Mazzie
Barry Manlow
Adam Pascal
Brent Spiner
Rebecca Luker
Peter Gallagher
Tom Wopat
Heather Headley
Ron Raines
Jeffrey Denman
Joan Hess
Brent Spiner
Linda Eder
Michael McCormick
Michael Mulheren
and of course, Julie Andrews, who provides us with some of her memories from "My Fair Lady" and briefly sings in "The Rain in Spain".

It is fun seeing some of the women who were in the Leading Ladies make a return (Linda Eder, Marin Mazzie, Rebecca Luker, Bebe Neworth, Julie Andrews, and anyone I've forgotten) but if you have not gotten the Leading Ladies (though you should!), this is lost on you. Some of the songs have been jazzed up and were better left alone. Other songs too do not really fit into what you'd think of as a "love song" category-do "Lullaby of Broadway" and "Brush Up Your Shakespeare" speak "love" to you?

Though it is definitely worth buying to see such stars as Julie Andrews, Michael Crawford, Chita Riviera, Robert Goulet, and Barry Manlow (if you're a fan) if you're expecting love songs from Rodgers and Hammerstein, West Side Story, or Jule Styne you might be a little disappointed.

By George, she's got it!.......2005-07-20

This DVD is a wonderful evening's entertainment. If you're anything like me then you'll applaud after the acts even if you do look like an idiot. Rebecca Luker, Bebe Neuwirth, Chita Rivera and so many others shine--such talent! My favourite numbers include "Brush Up Your Shakespeare" "I'm A Brass Band" "Every Single Day" and of course, the finale.
When Michael Crawford sings "I've Grown Accustommed To Her Face" and Ms. Andrews comes on and speaks her lines in the cockney accent, you can tell that the whole audience is captivated. Then, when she starts to sing...it's just incredible. That standing ovation was well-deserved.

You can see when the camera goes to the audience that they have had a wonderful and entertaining evening. And so have I, and so will you.

Best DVD I've ever purchased!.......2004-02-25

I am a big Julie Andrews fan, and this is a nice addition to any of you guys who collects julie andrews stuff. It is true that she teases the audience the whole time, and towards the end of the show, finally, she did it. It was a great moment, most especially by knowing her voice is damaged. she only sang 10 words, but it will not make the program as spectacular without it. Well worth your money, enjoy!

IT COULD NOT BE BETTER! WHAT TALENT!.......2006-10-31

This concert could not get any better. Both artists are
pure perfection. This is one of the few concerts were
"Aznavour/Minnelli" are so "magical" that this is a DVD
worth owning and is MORE than just a film of the concert.
You can feel the excitement and magic and you even forget
you are watching a DVD! The only sad note is that I wish
this was "LIZA" today. But I only wish her the best of
continued success. This is a POSITIVE AND OVERWHELMING
EXPERIENCE FOR ALL...and at the end
you can feel the friendship and even the love between these
two actors/singers.

I simpy wish they would release ALL OF LIZA'S FILMED SHOWS, like the one on "FOX Studio" that has been butchered to
an hour and should be running 90 minutes. It was a special
many, many years ago either on "SHOWTIME" OR "HBO."

I think it is time, after "all the laughting" about "Ms.
Minnelli" for all interested in the arts to get to see
"Liza" at her very top and understand this is what made
her famous. There are at least two more concerts filmed
that need to be released. Write "FOX STUDIOS."After watcing this anyone will understand the meaning of true
"genius!"

Palais Des Congres Des Paris - Featuring Charles Aznavour & Liza Minnelli.......2005-10-18

We were very pleased with the quality of the video and the concert is just fabulous. A wonderful gift for any Aznavour-Minnelli fan.

Good friends, Perfect match; Formitable !!.......2005-02-23

Liza and Aznavour are long time friends. And it is very exciting to see them perform on a same stage !!
Aznavour's soothing and Parisien style with Liza's engergetic and NY feel, are a perfect match !!
Actually, Liza had just attend Aznavour's 80 anniversary concert last year, and they are still a hit !!

Liza at her best.......2004-12-01

Everything that is good about Minnelli is evidenced here. Her dance during Steppin' Out, though a bit clunky and less smooth than the movie version, is pulled off because of her remarkable charisma and showmanship, the sheer joy in performing that she conveys. A special delight is her bluesy, gut-wrenching version of I Love a Piano. She nails this number like nobody has, and does the whole thing reclining on an easy chair! This DVD captures the beauty and sex appeal that Minnelli radiates, despite her unconventional looks (dig her great legs!). Like her mother, the power of talent and personality transcends the form (though her mother was more conventionally attractive). Sadly, like her mother, she seems to be buckling under the pressures of life's circumstance. Fortunately, we have videos like this that capture the glory of her great moments--I hope there are more in the future of this uniquely gifted woman.

The BesT Liza Live DVD!.......2004-11-24

A treasure to have forever captured on film, Liza in her prime, great voice and great shape!! It's quite a moving experience to see and hear the two legendary perfomers sing a fantastic arrangement of some of the most beautiful and memorable love songs from the American songbook! You'll be glad you purchased this wonderful live concert experience on DVD!!! There is no other filmed concert that captures such a "relaxed" Liza, having such a great time on stage! She and Mr. Aznavour are both at the TOP of their game!

Smooth, jazzy, stylish Sting.......2007-03-15

I am a tremendous Sting fan for years...and for years I was wainting for some material, that really leaves an impresion. This is it. What a great material you find in every of the 15 tracks that the DVD has. Every song, and every arragement is stylish, elegant, not loud, but not boring. The musicians are superb, Dominic, Jason, Kipper, Chris and so on; such a great asembly of artists. Good image quality and sound complete a good final product.
Sting fanatic or not, this is a piece of music that is well worth it to have, and enjoy.

Sting coasting.......2006-10-11

Although I am a tremendous fan of Sting, I feel he has "coasted" the past several years. This huge band of his can play beautiful music no doubt, but he has a tendancy to not work as hard in a big band. Sting really comes out in a smaller band - the Broken Music tour was MUCH better. The songs on Sacred Love were okay - not my favorite CD. Having said that, this DVD is really enjoyable. It's great to see Sting at his home here in LA just playing music, surrounded by his friends and family. The live footage at the Mayan sounds great, and there are a couple of songs on this DVD that cannot be found elsewhere.

Spreading joy and fun.......2004-07-29

While the album is a big studio work, this is a nice unpluged-like live version of it. It is not easy to "downgrade" the 100 tracks that are on the CD to a real-time performace done by half a dozen of musicians, but they did it well.

You can hear that the sound quality is far from the SACD mch. mix, but still, even if only in Dolby, the sound is great. Sting seems to be one of the few musicians that keeps up with the time. He releases his albums in Super Audio, this DVD is 16:9, 5 channels, nice picture, nice sound. And of course great musicians. You can feel that they love music.

Great musicians. Generally coming form the world of jazz, they can give an extra something to the live performace (Not as Gilmour with those loosers that performed on his DVD, including Bob Geldof that read the lyrics form a dirty piece of paper, and didn't disturb himself to learn 10 lines of Comfortably Numb... that by the way all of us knows by heart).

Sting's work is not only good artistically, but also form the marketing point of view. What can be better then the release of a great work first on SACD that 6 months later is followed by a 16:9 DD concert, that covers not a big statium concert, but the "inside" of the album togeather with an intimate concert.
Artists who are able to do this shall really not be afraid of the internet MP3 thing. We will always buy these works in orignal because of love of art.

Talks too much!.......2004-02-29

Great if not outstanding musically! However, if your looking for a concert followed by his thoughts and inspirations - not! Sting thinks he must interlace his music with the spoken word - which greatly takes away from this otherwise incredible work. You begin to drift into that magical place and then the concert cuts away - in the middle of the song - to listen to his thoughts on the tune!
Had it been any other musician - I would have shut the damn thing off and asked for my money back.

Great dvd!!!.......2004-02-24

This is a great concert. Great sound and vision. A must have for all Sting Fans. But I have a question. I'll love to watch "Bring On The Night" on dvd. Why is that the dvd is not available?
Also there's no edition for "Ten Summoner's Tales", "Fields of Gold" "The soul Cages concert" "Ten Summoner's Travel" I have all of these and more on my video/laserdisc collection. But why there isn't a dvd edition of those great materials?

can turn any woman on with his style on how a woman should be treated, etc. the works!
You got to get this DVD He is the Bomb!

BREATHTAKINGLY BEAUTIFUL.......2003-11-23

This collection of videos has to be the most beautiful that I have ever seen. The other reviews already said it all, I just have to add that I had not seen any of Alejandro's videos prior to watching this, and I was STUNNED.

Not only is he beautiful to look at and listen to, but the cinematography on this is just gorgeous. Each video is filmed almost as if it were a mini art-house film, with the exception of the first ones (they look as if his father, Vicente, was behind the camera!)

And for Mr. Larsen from Norway that asked if any concert tapes or dvds were available, the answer is yes. I obtained 2 excellent concert tapes of Alejandro.....one is a concert in Santo Domingo.....the other from Viña del Mar in Chile......both show up occasionally on ebay. There also is a dvd/vcd of Alejandro and Vicente from 'Lazos Invencibles' concert in Ecuador. I also bought that one on ebay.....but that may be available elsewhere.

The most beautiful young mexican voice.......2003-10-26

Alejandro is simply one of the truest and most gifted artist in Mexico. He sings our traditional and contemporary mexican songs with such a grace that makes me incredibly proud of mexican folklore and culture. It so rewarding to see that the newest generetions in Mexico have someone who can keep the beautiful genres of ranchera, boleros, huapangos and balada going, and doing it so amazingly. Alejandro eres nuestro orgullo. This video will not be a dissapoinment, but will be an excelent treat for followers of Alejandro's career. To see him sing and how he gives all of himself to show the feelings his songs portray is heaven.

To Larsen, who was asking if there were any more dvd's available in Mexico, I live in Europe, but in my next trip to Mexico I'll look around and keep you posted.

A brilliant singer!.......2003-10-24

A friend of mine asked me if I could manage to obtain for her a video or DVD by this, to me, totally unknown singer. She had been to Mexico and heard him played everywhere, and later on she had seen him on the Christmas in Vienna concert with Placido Domingo,- shown also on Norwegian television because of Domingo.

I found this DVD in the Amazon list and ordered it. I watched it before handling it over to her, and was really surprised to discover both the really rare quality of the voice and the charisma. Actually, I watched it at least ten times!

I have since ordered several of his CD's, and I am just as impressed by them, although I do not understand Spanish, and do not really have any knowledge of this kind of traditional Mexican music. It's just so nice to discover a young man who sings beautifully without all the mannerisms of most modern popular stars. He is almost like Edith Piaf or Melina Mercouri,- I can understand what he is singing about without knowing the words! I especially enjoyed the double CD with his 2002 concert of Mexican songs from the 20th Century, including marvellous renditions of Granada and Besame Mucho, songs also known to Scandinavians.

Alejandro Fernandez is completely unknown in my homeland, and his products cannot be ordered through any music store, except for the DVD and video of the Vienna Christmas concert,- marred by the presence of the terribly mannered French chanteuse Patricia Kaas. I do really recommend this, although I am a grown up man and usually not a customer of pop videos/DVD's. The reason for giving only four out of five stars is the lack of English subtitles on the portrait interview included on the DVD. Does his record company want his name known outside Spanish speaking countries, or do they not? I am completely aware of the Spanish-speaking aera being huge, but still.... I have already introduced the man and his music to several young Norwegian singers in the folk, jazz and musical-field, and they all want to go out and buy...

By the way,- can anyone inform me and my friend if any of his concert appearances are available on video or DVD, maybe in Mexico? Amazon regrettably only lists an out of stock concert video, without second hand offers. We do both own NTSC compatible VCR players and DVD players adaptable to Sone 1. And we would be in gratitude for ever!

One of Mexico's Most Powerful Male Vocalists !.......2003-08-02

The music is magnificent !...Words like colorful culture and pure class come to mind... The videos themselves each have a very cinematic feel.One video and song in particular stands out entitled Nube Viajera (Travelling Cloud or Wandering Cloud). It is this video alone that can make any woman cry and put a lump in the throat of the most macho of guys ( I know it did me). The video is filmed in black and white with the setting of that in a cemetery. He is serenading the mother of his child who died giving birth. For this video alone the collection is worth owning ! This is a prime example how the viewer/listener is treated to each video actually TELLING a story...The videos are colorful and vivid and some are directed in sepia tones or black and white to add to the dramatic feel. Nothing is spared or left as an afterthought in the directing and visuals.

No young Mexican or possibly international vocal talent comes even remotely close to that of Alejandro Fernandez'...This is it. This is the refined male vocal Mariachi singer that a little over ten years ago no one ever heard of...Alejandro's vocal range is almost operatic and rich in the baritone characteristic befitting the Mariachi sound. To have sung in Vienna a few years ago with the likes of Placido Domingo for a televised Christmas special was something spectacular to behold.

On the technical side, you get your money's worth for 97 minutes of material. The 5.1 Digital Dolby Surround is one of the finest and most enveloping I have heard for any dvd music video compilation (and I own several which DO NOT live up to their full 5.1 surround potential). I felt I was in the middle of the action on some of the videos or in the center of the instrumentalists/mariachi players. The quality of the dvd video shows little grain or macro-blocking artifacts. Their is a crispness to even the videos from the early 90's...As for the extras and interviews or behind the scenes, everything is spoken in Spanish (have not checked if English subtitles or an English track exists)...So, those who do not understand, get somebody who can translate...some very fascinating stuff !

So, even for those who are curious as to who this top male vocalist from Mexico is should pick this dvd-video collection up...I have friends who do not speak or understand Spanish, but once you hear the music and the grand talent performing, the language barrier will disappear !
