Spotlight customer reviews: Customer Rating: Summary: Incredible performer! Comment: I've never been a Cliff fan since he started out around '57. In Europe you were either a Cliff fan or an Elvis fan. You "had" to choose between the two. This doesn't mean I din't like his hits, I certainly did, because you heard them all day long on the radio and at least in Western Europe they both fought for the # 1 position. But OK that's history. What I really admire about Cliff is on how he keeps on singing and dancing in spite of his age. I already was astonished after watching his "Castles In The Air Concert" but on this one he still keeps on rockin' as if he were back in his early 60's concerts. Another incredible fact is the length of his shows. This guy never stops and although I haven't checked the time I'm sure they are about 2 and a half hours. Although I prefer the Castles Concert, this one is another 5 stars worth and he probably is more diverse on the types of music on this one. I have only one small complaint: on this concert he talks too much between each and every song. Customer Rating: Summary: cliff richard live 2006 Comment: AS A FAN AND AN AMERICAN CLIFF IS TOTALLY AN UNKNOWN IN THE USA. I HAVE THIS DVD AS WELL AS MANY OTHERS.HE IS A TREASURE. CLIFF IS THE BEST ENTERTAINER IVE EVER SEEN. THIS COMES FROM A MAN WHO WAS IN MANY TOP 40 BANDS IN THE STATES AND I SAW ELVIS 5 TIMES,. ROY ORBISON,, CHUCK BERRY, LITTLE RICHARD. YES ALL THE LEGENDS OF ROCK AND NO ONE, I MEAN NO ONE IS CLIFF. HE WAS BORN TO BE ON THIS PLANET TO ROCK AND ENTERTAIN. NO ONE WORKS HARDER OR CARES MORE TO PLEASE HIS FANS. I SAW CLIFF IN 1980 IN NYC AND IN PHILADELPHIA . TO THIS DAY HE IS THE FINEST ENTERTAINER IVE EVER SEEN. I DID NOT KNOW HIS MUSIC AT THE TIME, NOR DID MY WIFE AND WE BOTH FELL IN LOVE WITH HIS STAGE PERSONA AND HIS HANDLING OF A US AUDIENCE THAT ONLY KNEW," WE DONT TALK ANYMORE ". HE GOT A STANDING OVATION WITH PEOPLE WHO DIDNT KNOW HIS MATERIAL ANYMORE THAN I DID. HE HAS WRITTEN THE BOOK ON HOW TO PUT A CROWD IN THE PALM OF HIS HAND LIKE NO ONE ELSE. HE SIMPLY CARES WHAT HE DOES. IF YOU HAVENT SEEN CLIFF THIS IS THE DVD TO BUY HE IS THE BEST THERE HAS EVER BEEN.. TAKE IT FROM AN AMERICAN. MY OTHER FELLOW AMERICANS HAVE LOST OUT ON SEEING THE BEST. ONE DAY WHEN CLIFF IS RETIRED OR GONE FOR GOOD WE WILL BE ABLE TO GIVE TO THE WORLD HIS VIDEOS AND DVDS AND WE WILL BE LUCKY WE HAVE THEM. HE IS A WORLD TREASURE AND WE SHOULD LOVE HIM FOR WHAT HE IS . SIMPLY THE BEST. Customer Rating: Summary: Cliff entertains! Comment: Not being able to watch Cliff in concert for many years I was not disappointed in this superb Here and Now concert DVD. It is simply the best - Cliff, as always, delivers and entertains to all his fans. I enjoyed watching this DVD very much and my friend who lives in Hull did too (I ordered 2 copies from Amazon). She was lucky enough to watch Cliff in Sheffield and had a great time! (I am not surprised!) Cliff is excellent and deserves all the praise and love his fans shower upon him! We all love Cliff! A geat DVD for all Cliff fans!!!! Customer Rating: Summary: Sumptous and spectacular - buy now! Comment: This concert was the best I've ever been to and this is an amazing dvd. The tracklist is ideal as Cliff is singing from his own (brilliant, stunning, incredibly underrated) back catalogue instead of paying endless tributes to everyone else. I don't love Chuck Berry, don't love Elvis, Jerry Lee Lewis or Bill Haley, I love Cliff! I love all the dvds so much but never realized how much better it would be to have virtually all his own stuff. He sings rousing live versions of the sumptuous "Give Me Love Your Way", the romantic "Hey Mr Dream Maker", the vibrant My Kinda Life", the showstopping "Ocean Deep", the breathtaking "Peace In Our Time". Tracks from his new duets album are also included, for which his excellent backing vocalists replace the famous names as Cliff "can't afford them" but these singers too are incredibly gifted, especially Dawn Joseph who really has the voice to become the next Alicia Keys or Mary J Blige. Cliff's voice is amazing, I'll swear he's been training it, well it's always been gorgeous but he uses so much more vibrato than he used to, and he has this crystalline, pure vocal tone that bowls you over with its sheer beauty. He injects every nuance of emotion there could be into his singing, this is especially evident on the 9 tracks from his last solo album "Something's Goin On" which I would consider his best ever. If you love SGO this is the dvd for you...live versions of all the songs left off Cliff's Leeds Castle concert are on here, bar one. "How Did She Get Here" is rousing, dark, mysterious, soulful while "I Will Not Be A Mistake" is luscious and spine-tingling. He really, really knows how to use his voice and sounds even better live than he does on record, more powerful and if it's possible even more soulful. And then "For Life", perhaps Cliff's best ever ballad, is here in its full glory. Every note is caressed and sheer joy is evoked. "Field Of Love" is a huge standout too. darker, deeper, rockier, sultrier and thus even better than on the record. Haunting voice. On "Simplicity" his voice is layered with feeling and sensuality. Two further highlights are the two sides of his new single, "Move It", a reworking of his first hit, with a harder, rock edge and much more passion than the original; and another the Christmas song "21st Century Christmas". It's a potential Christmas classic, combines traditional with modern and I just wish people weren't so cynical and critics not so horrible about Christmas songs, especially his. The sound was flawless at this concert and the lighting, choreography and staging were brilliantly crafted, the stage looks amazing. (I also saw Christina Aguilera live this year and Cliff, 41 years Christina's senior, moved and cavorted about the stage as much as she did. Very impressive.)Everything down to the concert outfits and the dancers' costumes were perfect. Thank you, Cliff! Customer Rating: Summary: Here and Now Concert Comment: I have just been to seen cliff in the Here and Now concert in Glasgow's SECC. Wow what a great concert. I have been to a few concerts but I really loved this one hence the reason I am buying the dvd as a keepsake and so that I can replay the concert over and over again. Buy this DVD if you were at the concert - buy this DVD if you missed the concert - it will not disappoint. More Reviews
