  It's no secret that Pink Floyd was the original inspiration behind the Mostly Autumn phenomenon. Since those far off early days Mostly Autumn have gone on to become stars in their own right but there has always been a special place in their hearts for all things Floyd.So when BBC Radio broadcast an interview with Richard Wright and the band learned of his admiration for the music of Mostly Autumn a circle was closed.Rick's compliment was the spur which finally gave life to an idea which had been germinating for some time the performance of a complete cycle of Floyd songs as interpreted by Mostly Autumn. This Double DVD set is the result of that vision.Disc One features a set of vintage Floyd performed by Mostly Autumn and includes Pigs On The Wing Echoes Fat Old Sun Another Brick In The Wall Sheep Julia Dream Hey You Comfortably Numb and Run Like Hell.Disc Two features the best of Mostly Autumn live in concert and includes Something In Between Caught In A Fold Another Life First Thought Pure White Light Simple Ways Distant Train Answer The Question Evergreen Heroes Never Die Never The Rainbow Passengers Mother Nature and Afterglow.

• The Montreux Dream And BB King Workshop | DVD | (16/07/2001) from £14.49   |  Saving you £-1.50 (-11.50%)   |  RRP £12.99

  The Montreux Jazz Festival, the subject of the inspirational 1999 documentary The Montreux Dream, first took place in 1967. Since then, it has become a world-famous event, bringing together the finest musicians and singers in an annual celebration which transcends stuffy musical barriers. The force behind Montreux is its founder Claude Nobs and the documentary is as much a tribute to his generous passion for music (jazz and blues in particular) as it is to the artists past and present who have taken part over the years. Archive footage of Aretha Franklin at the piano (and at her vocal peak), blues singer and guitarist BB King, Miles Davis, the obviously thrilled British soul singer Beverley Knight and REM, among many others, contribute to a riveting and moving story. Director Christopher Swann skilfully uses performance clips to link interviews with many of these stars and anecdotes from Nobs as he reveals what an important historical archive the Festival has generated, and how he has managed to persuade so many stars to give their services for often relatively modest fees. Exhilarating stuff. On the DVD: Technically it might count as an extra, but the BB King Montreux Workshop 1999 commands equal billing with the main documentary. King's modest and engaging personality, the way he talks humbly about "rubbing shoulders with all these great people" and above all his eloquent, accessible dissection of the blues make this an invaluable 50 minutes for anyone who gives a fig for fine musicianship. The DVD cover claims that the main documentary is in 16:9 full-frame format, but it appears to be in 4:3 letterbox. This is fine, serving the sweeping vistas of Montreux and the modern performance footage well. The Dolby Digital 2.0 stereo sound quality is decent, but improves if you have a surround facility. Web links take you to the main Montreux Festival site and a site dedicated to BB King. --Piers Ford
