Queen "Live At Wembley Stadium"

This is a model DVD release for a rock band. The concert footage itself is very good, the extras are excellent, and there's a lot of care and attention paid to every last detail of the packaging. Everything you loved, or hated, or loved to hate about the band is preserved in exceptional detail. It's almost like being there. Queen were not only first-rate rockers but also fantastic showmen, and Freddie and Brian's showmanship is nothing but captivating. Brian May, Freddie Mercury, Roger Taylor and John Deacon are featured.

The incredible band chemistry and stellar improvisational abilities of the Papamichael World Group, led by guitarist Anthony Papamichael, can now be experienced in the comfort of your own home on this new concert DVD, Time To Shine, recorded live in 2005.

Sarah McLachlan "Mirrorball"

This video companion to the Canadian singer-songwriter's triumphant live album confirms in sight what that recording advanced in sound--Sarah McLachlan and her fine, flexible stage band have evolved into a superb live performing unit, breathing added fire and nuance into McLachlan songs that were already stunning in their original studio versions. Always a strong, charismatic singer, McLachlan now conjures a rare balance of delicacy and power, measured here in performances of signature songs that add a new, more muscular edge matching her band's rock firepower.
