Renaissance - Song Of Scherherezade Movie Review
Average Rating: (3.5 out of 5 stars)
Poor video, Awesome band
The video is black & white and looks like it was done with an 8 mm camera. The audio is maybe FM quality. But I have always loved this band, and they give the expected performance, and this is the only video of them I've ever found. So I have no choice but to give this DVD 4 stars.

Nearly Impossible to Get
I am extremely happy to get my hands on this dvd.Being a huge fan of Renaissance,and seeing them live so many times,this was a time capsule that I had to have.The only drawback is that the footage is b/w.Other than that it is an important piece of rock history.

Pioneers who were never discovered
More of a home movie than a concert video but it is a reminder of just how talented Renaissance was. Annie's voice is in perfect pitch and the band is very well rehearsed. She is as far removed from rock star as one can get. I had heard that Jon Camp was quite a ... how do I say it?...character and his ego is on full display here. He IS a terrific guitarist playing bass though. I saw them in Philly and was really impressed. Buy this if you are as big a fan as I am.

It is not in color it is B & W
The concert is OK, but CD Universe announces it as a COLOR DVD. It is entirely a black and white video.

Renaissance - Song Of Scherherezade DVD
The first ever DVD to feature one of the great progressive-rock bands of all time! Song Of Scheherezade features 2 classic live shows: One from a 1976 US tour (Capitol Theatre - Passiac, NJ), and another show from 1979 (Convention Hall - Asbury Park, NJ). Renaissance were originally formed in the late 1960 s by ex-Yardbirds members Keith Relf, and Jim McCarty but both eventually departed leaving the classic line-up of Annie Haslam (Vocals), John Tout (piano), Jon Camp (bass pedals/Vocals) and Terence Sullivan (drums). The later line-up were responsible for the groups most recognized albums Prologue (1972), Ashes Are Burning (1973) and Turn Of The Cards (1975) and Scheherezade and Other Stories (1976) which gained the group a significant fanbase in the US and led to hits in many other countries including UK top ten single Northern Lights.
