Description

There's magic in the memories as great Disney moments are captured right here for you and your family to enjoy. A two-gun terror and his terrified twin brother turn an old cowtown upside down. A blazing, rip-roaring, riotous saga of brotherly competition in a winner-take-all battle for an inheritance. Jim Dale (PETE'S DRAGON, UNIDENTIFIED FLYING ODDBALL) stars in a triple-header of a role, pulling all the stops out as he plays three different people: Old Jasper Bloodshy and his two sons.

Great Family Entertainment.......2007-01-11

This movie is the top pick by all my grandkids(13) as one of their favorites!!

Safe, pleasant, silly Disney western.......2006-11-27

Pioneering old man Jasper Bloodshy presumably - strong emphasis on the word `presumably' - leaps off a cliff to his death. His will is read and, to the surprise of all, it mentions a second son. The old man's fortune will go to either gunslinging son Wild Billy or his Philadelphia sibling, `tambourine thumping' missionary Eli, depending on who wins a frontier version of an iron man race.

HOT LEAD AND COLD FEET is a featherweight comedy/western produced by the Disney factory in 1978. The three Bloodshys are all played by British actor Jim Dale. Wild Billy is impossibly bad, Eli impossibly good, and old man Jasper takes an awful lot of pratfalls. Come to think of it, everyone takes at least one pratfall here, but Jasper seems to do it most often and from higher places. In any event, Eli (with two young orphaned children in tow, natch) travels west from Philly to the wild and rambunctious town of Bloodshy to compete in the race, become determined to clean up the town, and falls in love with the town's new school teacher, Karen Valentine. The movie is a series of slapstick routines, with some serious, unstressed undertones - the kids want a father, Eli wants to bring civilization to a lawless town. The slapstick and roughhousing is of the gentlest variety. Every five feet or so there's either a fistfight or a rowdy firing off his six-shooter, but no blood is ever spilt, no bullets ever find flesh. All things considered, this is about as gentle as they come.

The supporting cast is pretty strong. Although Don Knotts seems to be prominently featured in most of the posters and dvd jackets, his role is fairly small. He's the nervous sheriff of Bloodshy, and his biggest scenes come when he squares off against Rattlesnake (Jack Elam). They growl, grumble, and glare at each other, but something always seems to happen after they've separated themselves from each other by ten paces, counted to three and reached for their guns. Why they want to blast each other to oblivion is never explained, but their scenes together are entertaining enough.

HOT LEAD AND COLD FEET is about as family-friendly as they get. Like most Disney movies of this type it'll be best appreciated by the pre-teens in the family, and adults who don't need to be challenged by a movie. Teen-agers and young adults will probably find this one insufferably corny. A safe bet for family night at the home theater.

Great.......2006-05-25

I remember watching this a while ago (I have it on VHS and will probably watch it again soon).

This is a great story about a father who has two sons: one is a tough, gunslinging bandit, and the other is a mild mannered preacher. The father leaves a will stating that the sons have to race each other in order to win his possessions. Hilarity ensues.

With such classic Knotts dialog. . ........2006-05-18

. . .how can you say no?

Sheriff Denver Kid: Ssshhh! He's here!
Mayor Ragsdale: Who?
SDK: Rattlesnake! But I've got the edge on him!
MR: You do? How?
SDK: Because he's here and I know he's here. And he knows I know he's here. But what he doesn't know is that I know he knows I know he's here. So I've got the edge.

BEAUTIFUL!

Yet another classic back for the next generations.......2006-03-24

Just like Private Eyes, Don Knotts and Tim Conway have stolen the screen again. A very unique comedy/western that only Disney could pull off. With a cast of Jim Dale and Jack Elam, only to be backed with Knotts and Conway, you know it's a winner. I grew up with this as one of my favorite movies, playing it over and over again. I am so thrilled Disney is starting to re-release classics.

I had this on VHS not too long ago. Buying the DVD for sure. It is great and I remember thinking it would be better to forward and reverse if it's on DVD. It is 2 DVDs so I don't think the price is bad considering the instruction was easy and informative.

Description

Infectious syncopations, hot soloing, lush chords....nothing captures the spirit of jazz better than swing. Mike Dowling has it down cold, and on this follow-up to "Swing Guitar: Rhythm's Where It's At," he has put together a perfect lesson for any player interested in lead soloing and improvisation.

Mike's clear instructional style is easy to follow, and you'll get great practice as you jam along with the rhythm parts he and David Hungate provide.

Starting at the beginning, Mike uses "Mary had a Little Lamb" to demonstrate how you can create a swing tune out of just about anything. He explains how to use chord shapes to give you the basis for moving around the neck, and how to take a basic melody and embellish it with arpeggios, riffs, pedal tones and other improvisational devices. Before long, you'll be calling it "Mary had a Swingin' Little Lamb!"

Mike gets further into the process with "C Jam Blues," which teaches you to improvise around a short "riff," or melodic passage in various positions on the fingerboard. He plays out the chord progression and then launches into some effective blues/jazz improvisations. A classic Hot Club riff leads you into Fats Waller's great swing standard "Honeysuckle Rose."

Description

Chop it, Drop it, and ROLL IT! WheelsTV has captured the best regiment of Retro-Rods and candy apple rolling Jukeboxes the lead sled world has to offer. This is truly a "Custom" collection of the rods that ruled the boulevard drive-ins when Sha-Boom was topping the charts of America. You'll be cruising to the sounds of the fifties with fat-fendered Mercs and turtle-backed Fords sporting shaved, sectioned and smooth bodies that drape over their frames for a ground-hugging stance. Custom painted flames, frenched headlights, nosed hoods, rounded cormers and stretched tail fins give these trick rides the flavor of the 50's. You'll see fiery flame throwing lighting up the sky and the music of muffler rapping filling the air! Trailer queens not allowed here! So, grab the necker knob, kick in the trips, wraps off the glass packs and "LEAD IT ROLL". This exciting story is presented by the multi-award winning television production team at WheelsTV, a bunch of car guys and gals who are truly Wild About Wheels.
