• Pink Floyd - The Making of The Dark Side Of The Moon | DVD | (01/12/2008) from £7.52   |  Saving you £3.47 (46.14%)   |  RRP £10.99

  The most phenomenal recording in rock & roll history is thoroughly examined in Pink Floyd: The Dark Side of the Moon. The Floyd's 1973 masterpiece remained on bestseller charts for nearly 14 years, and its enduring importance is honoured here by all four members of Pink Floyd and key personnel (engineer Alan Parsons, mixing supervisor Chris Thomas, sleeve designer Storm Thorgerson and others) who played essential roles in the landmark album's creation.Produced for the Classic Albums series, this thorough and thought-provoking study highlights a track-by-track dissection of the LP's master tapes (including the spoken-word passages that bookend the album), superbly interlaced with archival footage, early demo tapes, concert animations and latter-day acoustic performances by David Gilmour, Roger Waters and Richard Wright to demonstrate each track's contribution to the final mix--a sonic exploration that extends to the illuminating bonus features. Informative interviews abound (including Rolling Stone senior editor David Fricke), and much-deserved credit is given to saxophonist Dick Parry, solo vocalist Clare Torry and former Columbia Records chairman Bhaskar Menon, who fostered the album's US commercial success. For Floyd fans, musicians and studio technicians alike, this is a must-have addition to any DVD library. --Jeff Shannon

• Pink Floyd - Live at Pompeii | DVD | (20/10/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Conceived by the French director Adrian Maben as "an anti-Woodstock film," Pink Floyd: Live at Pompeii was shot in October 1971 in the ancient city's vacant, 2,000-year-old amphitheatre--a venue chosen to accentuate the grandeur and spaciousness of the band's Meddle-era music. This disc contains a new, 90-minute director's cut as well as the original 60-minute concert film, whose production and effects feel inescapably dated. Maben's cut goes to great lengths to lend the film a more contemporary feel, but it's the earlier version that makes this disc such a gem, being more focused on the music and more holistic in vision. The anamorphic, 16:9 director's cut interweaves the Pompeii performances with fascinating but distracting interviews and music snippets filmed later (mostly during the recording of Dark Side of the Moon). The movie was originally prepared in a 4:3 aspect ratio, however, and the widescreen version crops perfectly framed images like the nine-square mosaic of drummer Nick Mason in "One of These Days". The original offers plenty of close-ups of fingers on frets and keys, with shots that are often luxuriously long in duration. And the picture quality from Pompeii is revelatory: outstandingly sharp and clear, rich in subtle grades of light and colour. Generous extras include everything from original posters, reviews, bootleg album covers and song lyrics, to a 24-minute interview with Maben. But for all the director's talk of the glorious acoustics in Pompeii's amphitheatre, there's little natural ambience to be heard. The Dolby Digital 2.0 sound is clear, dry and two-dimensional, though notably better than any previous video release. --Michael Mikesell

• David Gilmour - In Concert | DVD | (21/10/2002) from £12.45   |  Saving you £7.54 (60.56%)   |  RRP £19.99

  Stripped to the bare essentials, and the antithesis of Pink Floyd's epic live performances, David Gilmour in Concert is a low-key, classy affair. Using footage from 2001's Meltdown Concert and his Royal Festival Hall show in 2002, Gilmour performs a mix of solo compositions and Floyd classics. Opening with a lengthy acoustic version of "Shine On You Crazy Diamond", the show gradually gathers momentum as "Fat Old Sun" and "High Hopes" are tackled. Other legends such as Richard Wright and Bob Geldof make guest appearances, with Geldof providing complementary vocals for the second live version of "Comfortably Numb" featured. "Shine On" is also reprised mid-way, this time with added backing band, choir and electric guitar. Resembling more a classical than a rock concert, the audience attentively soak up Gilmour's performance, politely clapping at the right moments and never doing anything as undignified as standing up (although there are the occasional cat-calls). It's an excellent live recording that should appeal to all Gilmour's fans. On the DVD: David Gilmour in Concert on disc enhances the exclusivity and quality of the performances with crisp 5.1 surround (an ordinary stereo soundtrack is also available) and an anamorphically enhanced picture. --John Galilee

• David Gilmour At Hammersmith Odeon | DVD | (28/10/2008) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £13.99

  David Gilmour counts as one of the few world famous guitar players whose impact lies beyond handicraft. As a member of Pink Floyd which delivered possibly the soundtrack of a decade. With his spherical guitar-playing and his deep voice he shaped the sound image of the band. The magazine Guitarist voted him as the best Fender-player of all time before heroes such as Jimi Hendrix. In March 1984 David Gilmour released his second solo album About Face and at the end of the month went on a three month long tour through Great Britain and the USA. Tracklist: 1. Until We Sleep 2.

• Paul McCartney - Live At The Cavern Club | DVD | (28/07/2003) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Paul McCartney's Live at the Cavern is essentially the video counterpart to his album Run Devil Run and is equally addictive. The legendary Liverpool club--where the Beatles and a great many other Mersey bands cut their musical teeth--has relocated to new premises in the same street, but it's still the most intimate of venues (it holds all of 300 punters) and is of course the obvious place for Macca to stage this wonderful rock & roll retro extravaganza. Oh yes, there was also a secondary audience of several million who watched the show as a Webcast, but at least this meant they weren't queuing at the bar. The music, however, isn't obvious at all. Rather than go down the tried and tested route of rehashing all the rock & roll classics everyone knows, McCartney decided instead to create a show focusing on his own personal favourites from his formative years. This means that we get stuff like "Fabulous", "Blue Jean Bop" and "Honey Hush" rather than the usual over-revived material. This combination of an instantly recognisable style with rather less recognisable songs is as refreshing as an ice-cold Tizer. The all-star band includes Dave "Floyd" Gilmour, Ian "Purple" Paice (looking alarmingly like Mel Smith) and even Pete "Eighteen with a Bullet" Wingfield. The performance is preceded by an interview with His Macship conducted by Jools Holland. --Roger Thomas

  Pink Floyd twice overcame the loss of the band's creative driving force and principal writer. First there was the sad decline of Syd Barrett followed by the long the festering war which culminated in the sacking of Richard Wright the unexpected departure of Roger Waters and a ferocious High Court legal battle. Over the years the Floyd have been forthright in their criticism of their own work and of each other. This penetrating independent film review draws on the media pronouncemen
