• Frank Sinatra - Sinatra | DVD | (19/11/2001) from £9.62   |  Saving you £5.37 (55.82%)   |  RRP £14.99

  Here's Frank Sinatra in 1969 when, after a brief sortie into retirement mid-way through the decade, he returned with hit after hit culminating in "My Way", which is flagged here by audience applause in recognition of its current chart success (in Britain it was in the Top 50 for 122 weeks!). Don Costa, one of the least celebrated of Sinatra arranger/conductors, presides over a collection of songs that includes a contemporary group by Stevie Wonder, Rod McKuen and Jimmy Webb. Sinatra forsakes black tie and the formal studio surroundings for those songs, appearing in a Manhattan-style apartment dressed in casual white jumper, slacks and smoking a cigarette. But he's clearly less than engaged, and his eyes dip down to the autocue for lyrics new to him. His voice shows signs of that cigarette smoke, too: the opening of "For Once in My Life" sounds a bit rough, and he becomes audibly hoarse after the midway climax on "My Way", placed daringly as the third item on the programme. Two arrangements are different from the original studio recordings: there's a cut in the coda to "My Way", and in "My Kind of Town", the finale of the programme, there are some additional verses and a punchier accompaniment as Sinatra cues in the closing credits on screen. His line in self-deprecating humour is turned to advantage when, with the aid of clips, he reviews his early screen career ("I started in Higher and Higher and went lower and lower"). But never less than in full command of his stage act, he turns in vintage performances of "All the Way", "Fly Me to the Moon", "Love's Been Good to Me" and Victor Young's underrated "Street of Dreams". On the DVD: The picture quality in the opening songs comes over a mite bright owing to the studio lighting on the set which, at a certain angle, fogs the profile of the singer. The orchestral sound stands up well with the large string section making for a comfortable aural backdrop. The trailer builds up a keen sense of anticipation as Sinatra arrives at the studio by limousine to a silent soundtrack, walks onto an empty soundstage, throws his hat on a stool and then takes to the podium as the camera cuts to him singing "I've Got You Under My Skin" with full orchestra. Stills of the other Sinatra concerts are also featured.--Adrian Edwards

• Cats - Ultimate Edition | DVD | (13/10/2000) from £20.49   |  Saving you £-14.50 (N/A%)   |  RRP £5.99

  Cats is a pop-cultural phenomenon that has been performed on stage for more than 50 million patrons in 26 countries for almost 18 years, resulting in more than two billion dollars in ticket sales. Now that Cats has finally made it to the small screen, attention must be paid not just by fans of this critic-proof show, but also by those entertainment mavens who have somehow avoided it until now. This video version has been restaged but, alas, not really reconceived for its new medium. Most of the cast--assembled from London, Amsterdam and New York productions--are competent. Ken Page as Old Deuteronomy, Jacob Brent as Mr Mistoffelees and Elaine Paige--the original London Grizabella, the Glamour Cat well past her prime--are a great deal more than that. Paige has toned down her theatrical belting of her big number, "Memory", and allowed the faded ruin of her character's soul to prevail in close-up. For all the covers of her signature song, Paige's version remains definitive. The video is, by definition, more intimate, which is not always a good thing: costumes are even more Halloweeny in garish close-up, the cats less cuddly without that all-important interaction, the stage's appropriately midnight lighting transmuted to a Las Vegas neon. And the chorus of cats in production numbers is even clunkier and more amorphous in two- and three-shots. The one complete newcomer to the cast is the 90-year-old icon among English actors, John Mills, a delight as Gus the Theatrical Cat. Sir John and his character show the youngsters how it's done in close-up, largely behind the eyes, abetted by a heart-tugging delivery of his one song. Yet virtually all of the songs are lip-synched, further robbing the video Cats of its onstage spontaneity. It's clearer than ever that Lloyd Webber's music is mostly twaddle, with the important exception of "Memory", which instantly and rightly became one of the genuine theatre standards not dependent on context, in the vein of Stephen Sondheim's "Send in the Clowns". On the plus side, most of the characters and lyrics, from TS Eliot's 14-poem Old Possum's Book of Practical Cats, are far better defined and understood from the video version. --Robert Windeler, Amazon.com
