• Tribute To Burt Bacharach And Hal David | DVD | (19/11/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  The Royal Albert Hall provides an appropriately regal backdrop for A Tribute to Burt Bacharach and Hal David, recorded in July 2000. They are "one of the greatest song writing partnerships in the history of popular music", says compere Johnnie Walker. A parade of international singing talent proceeds to demonstrate the elegance and deceptive complexity of pop songs which haven't merely stood the test of time--if anything, they've grown in stature; a succession of mini epics describing emotional journeys through sophisticated lyrics and melodies. Now that it's cool to like them again, young performers are queuing up to sing them, with varying degrees of competence. Here, people like Shola Ama and Lucy Silvers seem overwhelmed by the occasion. Not so comedian Brian Conley. His considerable ego is more than enough to fill the hall but he's too busy loving himself to bring anything new to "What's New Pussycat". It's left to the showbiz legends to provide the classiest moments: Petula Clark, Sacha Distel ("Raindrops Keep Falling on my Head") and Elvis Costello ("I Just Don't Know What to do With Myself"). Then, like a gracious aunt, on comes Dionne Warwick and effortlessly shows everyone how these songs are really done. With Bacharach himself at the piano she slips into "Walk on By" and the years fall away. Watch out for Hal David joining the final line-up for a sing-along "What the World Needs Now"--a magic moment for any true pop fan. --Piers Ford

• MTV 20 - Pop | DVD | (29/10/2001) from £N/A   |  Saving you £N/A (N/A%)   |  RRP £19.99

  There's a fair amount of 1980's stuff on the MTV 20 Pop compilation, and... no, wait, come back! Because not unlike the Now series of albums, this kind of item is valuable not only for the way in which it reminds us of what was any good during a given pop period, but for the way in which it consigns much of the dross to well-earned oblivion by the simple act of passing it by. So it is, then, that this video is packed full of pop classics, compiled with a loving 20/20 hindsight. Highlights are Gary Numan's original (1982) version of "Cars", preceded by some suitably snotty interview footage, Elvis Costello's inevitable "Every Day I Write the Book" and a wonderfully clunky juxtaposition of U2 and Lionel Ritchie. The inclusion of Chumbawamba's excellent "Tubthumping" presumably means that the band decided to restrain their anti-capitalist convictions in order to communicate with a wider audience (ie: sell out)? There are a few also-rans as well--The Fixx, anyone?--and inevitable instances of US-centricity (Smashmouth?), but the best bit has to be the legendary Tears for Fears video for "Shout", reminding us all that Roland Orzabal was in fact a pop genius. The house ads ("MTV--no longer only for deviants!") are a hoot.--Roger Thomas
