Van Der Graaf Generator - Godbluff Live Movie Review Average Rating: (4 out of 5 stars)   A Real Treat Live concert performance of one of the greatest progrock albums of all time, in its entirety, Godbluff. Plus a fascinating, live video performance of Theme One and A Plague of Lighthouse Keepers (shadows, candles and wine).
Guy Evans really shines on the Godbluff concert performance with his virtuoso drumming. There are fewer shots of Hugh Banton than the rest of the band for some reason but there are some good ones. I'm thinking that David Jackson's sax has seen better days than this particular concert but he still provides some interesting footage and some great moments. As for Peter Hammill, he's the highlight of the show and he delivers an incredible vocal performance, right in touch with the album.
The video shooting is a little odd but very close-up and personal.

At Their Peak! For fans of Peter Hammill and VDGG, this DVD is a must-own. For those outside the sphere of influence-watch and listen to prog-rock at its most literate and unique. This is the live performance of one of the group's best
albums-the band at their peak! Submitted by a reviewer (Westwood, NJ) Was This Review Helpful? Yes No
Someone dropped the chalupa! This DVD is only worth your investment if you are the diehard fan. In my opinion it is poor quality and has no direction or purpose. These guys stink! The prog rock genre experts should kick them out....NOW! Don't waste your money. Submitted by kurtman43 (Kurt in Sacramento, Ca.)  Was This Review Helpful? Yes No 0 of 2 found this helpful.

$11.79 Jethro Tull took to the stage immediately after rock legend Jimi Hendrix on the last day of the Isle of Wight Festival in 1970. An eight song set featuring such tracks as "Cry You a Song," "My Sunday Feeling," and "With You There to Help Me," illustrates the band's growth across their first three albums, with Murray Lerner's cinematography accurately conveying the raw energy of their live act. Lead vocalist Ian Anderson also offers insight into what was going on behind the scenes ...
| | Van Der Graaf Generator Present CD (2005)
Van Der Graaf Generator - Godbluff Live movie DVD
$17.89 Re-forming no less than 27 years after the band last broke up, Van Der Graaf Generator were never going to put together the usual kind of reunion record. For a start, the reunion itself is largely in the eye of the beholder -- various permutations of the band have played together on a number of occasions over the past three decades, which means that it's their own understanding of what the Van Der Graaf Generator name signifies that dominates this album, rather than any of the motives and moods that normally dictate such affairs. The fact that this understanding dovetails exquisitely with the group's own reputation and legend should not surprise listeners. Messrs. Hammill, Jackson, Banton, and Evans have safeguarded their own chemistry well, and, from the opening swirl of "Every Bloody Emperor," it is clear that the void between "then" and "now" has neither dented nor tarnished the uniqueness of the VDGG sound. It is remarkable that, of all the idols and icons of the '70s whose influence has been spread across the last few years of "new" rock acts, VDGG remain all but untouched by anyone. But it's also true. With all the key ingredients in place -- the dislocation of sax and organ duets, a voice that can travel from zero to banshees in 60 seconds, and percussion that rolls with every punch that is thrown, who else could swing from the low-key loquacity of "On the Beach" to the abrasive swagger of ...
