James Last rules! March 13, 2004 B. Janssen (HEERLEN, Limburg Netherlands) 3 out of 3 found this review helpful
This concert is really superb! It's just as good as the Gentleman of music dvd, which you should also buy!brOwn them both, they're a real treat.brThis dvd includes also a 20min. documentary which is very interesting, because after seeing this I found out that James Last composed most of his songs himself. I always thought he played covers from other composers, but he did compose them himself. He even composed FOOL for Elvis!!brHe's now over 70 years old, and has been in the business since the 50s.brHe still shows people he's the man. He hasn't lost his touch.brHe's also very full of energy for his age, he still jumps and dances on the stage while the orchestra is playing his music.brBut while dancing he's also still conducting, with just his hands (he was the first conductor who didn't use a stick).brHis orchestra consist of people from over 15 nationalities, and they all play really beautiful. Very talented people!brBecause the track list in the editorial review is incomplete, and contains mistakes, I include the right track list in my review:br1. Fanfarebr2. Medley: Besame Mucho / A Gay Ranchero / Volarebr3. Sunset At Flamingo Parkbr4. Mamma Miabr5. Rock Medley: Rock Around The Clock / See You Later, Alligator / Hound Dogbr6. Herobr7. Always On My Mindbr8. Geschichten Aus Dem Wienerwald (stories from the Vienna woods)br9. Der Mai Ist Gekommen (May has come)br10. Fernandobr11. Gimme, Gimme, Gimmebr12. Czardas von (from) Montibr13. Hip Hop Polka 3: Anneliese/ Schutzenliesel/ Lustig ist das Zigeunerlebenbr14. Dancing Queenbr15. Nature Boybr16. Medley: Happy Music / Mexican Hat Dancebr17. S.O.Sbr18. Reel Expressbr19.

Fabulous Performance December 3, 2003 Dr. Charles Langeberg (Homeland, CA United States) 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
Enjoyed listening to these excellent musicians. The brass section combined with the string section produced such an enormous volume of concert hall music that everybody would enjoy. Definitely an asset to everyone's music library. The combination of the different tempo of the music will surely not bore the listener but will put you in a dancing mood!
Another Fabulous James Last Concert! April 23, 2003 2 out of 2 found this review helpful
PBS viewers who recently were treated to portions of this fabulous James Last concert have much to look forward with this DVD. As James Last fans have come to expect, overall the sound is great but the fullness and clarity of the brass is absolutely superb! Again, fans will enjoy the personal energy of each of these accomplished musicians as they clearly enjoy being part of this large musical family representing approximately 18 nationalities.
