This electrifying concert was recorded in May 2001 in the "New Morning" club in Paris, one of the most important European jazz clubs. The packed house experienced Robben Ford in peak form. It was a truly classy performance on the stage that night. Accompanied by Louis Pardini (keyboards), Jimmy Earl (bass) and Brannen Temple (drums) Robben Ford showed every facet of his furious guitar playing. With numbers like "Start It Up", "Moonchild Blues", "Deaf, Dumb And Blind" or "You Got Me Knockin'" the virtuoso excelled himself and played blues rock which simply can't be bettered. As a bonus track, there is a 24 minute interview, where Robben Ford talks very candidly about his career. Filmed in May 2001 at the legendary Parisian Jazz club New Morning, this concert shows off the versatility and skill of jazz, blues, and rock guitarist Robben Ford. With accompaniment from Jimmy Earl on bass, Brannen Temple on drums, and Louis Pardini on keyboards, Ford performs songs including "You Got Me Knockin'," "Start It Up," "Deaf, Dumb And Blind," and "Moonchild Blues." As a special feature, Ford also opens up about his career in a 24-minute interview.

Robben Ford Movie Review Average Rating: (4.2 out of 5 stars)   Simply the Best
Robben Ford is, in my opinion, the best Blues/Rock guitarist on the planet.
The new support lineup complements Ford's style and class very well indeed.
This DVD is now one of my favourites.

Robben's Supernatural tour DVD
Very pleased with this DVD, I have the early 90's Blueline DVD and this tops it in both sound quality and performance. I saw this lineup at the Jazz Cafe in the same year, and they were just as good. Robben's playing is really on and the Dumble tone is there and being a fan of the Telecaster I liked the fact he plays it for most of the concert. Bad bits are the band seem a trifle unrehearsed on a couple of the tunes but this is probably nitpicking as Robben rarely seems to have the same musicians for more than one tour (Jimmy Earl really grooves on this btw). All in all a great intimate little gig with a hot band playing great tunes.
If you're a fan I suspect you'll buy this anyway but imho it is a must see for any fans of the tasteful guitar solo/comps.

Was This Review Helpful? Yes No  give it up
robben can at times puts forth the most mouth watering jazz tinged blues runs on his solos, but occasionally runs out of ideas and repeats himself..sounds best on his signature humbucking fender guitar, but should give the tele up as it seems/sounds like it stiltifies his playing somewhat..less singing more solos!!

WOW!
I've been listening to Robben Ford ever since his "Talk To Your Daughter" recording was released. I've seen him perform way back in the early 90's. I haven't stayed current with his releases and really haven't listened to anything of his for a long time. For whatever reason, I kind of forgot how good he is. Well...WOW! This DVD certainly captures Mr. Ford at his best. This show, recorded in an intimate venue, completely rocks from start to finish. His jazz influences are very evident and lend to his exceptional style. Here the viewer is treated to a guitar virtuoso stretching his wings in the classis blues genre incorporating elements of jazz, rock and funk. I forgot how good this guy is - has always been. Robben Ford captured live, at his peak, is not something that can be described with mere words. This DVD clearly demonstrates that Robben Ford is one of the true guitar greats. In addition to his remarkable guitar skills, this guy can sing and each song is really good. Don't miss this one.

Renowned guitarist Gary Moore devoted much of his early career to playing metal-tinged hard rock, first as a member of 1970s bands Skid Row, Thin Lizzy, and Colosseum II, and then as a solo artist throughout the 1980s. But in the 1990s, Moore reembraced the influences of Eric Clapton, Jimi Hendrix, and Peter Green for a return to his first love, the blues.

This long-awaited, on-stage meeting of guitar legends Larry Carlton and Steve Lukather was shot at a 2001 show at Paris's New Morning Festival.

| | Namesake DVD (2007) Widescreen; Dubbed; Subtitled
Robben Ford DVD
$9.69
Like her previous films VANITY FAIR, MONSOON WEDDING, and HBO's HYSTERICAL BLINDNESS, Mira Nair's THE NAMESAKE is a lush, beautiful film bursting with rich color and visual texture. Based on the bestselling book by Jhumpa Lahiri, the film follows two generations of the Ganguli family. After wedding via an arranged marriage, Ashima (Tabu) moves with Ashoke (Irrfan Khan) from her native Calcutta to New York. As Ashima struggles to adjust to life in her new home, a true love grows between the newlyweds. When they give birth to Gogol (who does not learn the true origin of his name until adulthood), the Gangolis decide to stay in American for their child's sake, settling in the suburbs and eventually giving birth to a daughter, Sonia (Sahira Nair). While Ashima and Ashoke attempt to balance their new life with Indian traditions, their children have the very different experience of being raised first-generation Americans. With little interest in their ancestry, both Gogol and Sonia disappoint their parents by having little respect for the sacrifices their parents made for them. Gogol's desire to change his name, and his relationship with a wealthy American girl (Jacinda Barrett), places a strain on the family which Gogol will later regret.
Here, Penn proves he can play a serious role while still using his comedic skills to great affect. The actor shows impressive range in growing a clueless teen to a man his father would be proud of. Nair's skill at directing can be felt in the film's many great performances. Both Tabu and Irrfan Khan embody their characters so fully that the viewer really feels a personal connection to the story. As the head of the household, Khan's character will subtly make viewers laugh while breaking their heart. Packed with unique characters, THE NAMESAKE offers audiences an outlet into Bengali traditions and ...
