A must for any music fan, any age

Reviewed in the United States on March 16, 2014

I agree with all the positive reviews; the disagreeable one or two are your bargain basement snark. Don't bother.

What interests me in this selection of songs is the breadth: iI goes back to the first Roxy and includes the latest, Olympia. This is a masterful song selection, including covers of Dylan (obviously) but also Neil Young and John Lennon and Sam and Dave. You get a total sense of the man as an artist who has surveyed decades of music, integrated all them within his repertoire of resources, and approaches everything with both respect and real enthusiasm. Of the originals, he harkens back to a surprising number from some disputed classic albums, like Bride Stripped Bare and Flesh + Blood. Both were fine records, dismissed because they were departures, and critics don't like departures. Hearing Sign of the Times reminded me of what an incredible pop song it is. My Only Love is so breathtakingly spare and heart wrenching. From Olympia, there are three selections, one dark disco, one darker disco, and one brilliantly subtle ballad. It's a daring mix, and it all works out superbly.

The band is far from geezer. (I don't know what the person was thinking when the second drummer, second guitarist, sax/keyboardist are all younger than that reviewer likely is. By the way, calling a woman a "bird" is pretty pathetic, since she's a great musician and it REALLY shows YOUR age, my friend. Maybe not chronologically, but for sure in karma years.) Ferry's voice never sounded better live, because here he dispenses with his dance steps and focuses on the notes, and if you watch, he's actually singing them. Unlike all the newer synth driven oil-on-velvet bands, who are only looking for five note hooks, with giant manly choirs, that can be adapted to TV commercials.

I'm right about this. Listen to KROQ, listen to TV commercials. Same riffs. Real musicians like Ferry are few and far between. I'm a fan, but this DVD...it was a kick way up in my appreciation. I think he's nailed it. Covering his hybrid of Lou's "What Goes On," which incorporates other Lou songs of the period, is over the top. It was years earlier; it rocks with more authority now.

Ferry rightly deserves his place as an innovator, superior musician and singer, and a man of uncompromising artistic integrity. This video is both nostalgic and brand new. That's the deal in the end, for a great musical provocateur, and NOT just a good commercial slice of velvet. You can watch this, but listen to it first and foremost. Best Ferry album ever.

A record of a fantastic concert, the video is available for free on YouTube.
The recording itself is not the best and the dvd format is obsolete.

Let me say I have about 30 Blu-ray concert videos. Where does this stand among those? How bout at the very top. Yes it is that good.Bryan and his band put on a fantastic performance. Between his own hits and some Roxy music songs along with a few old classic covers, everyone of them is performed flawlessly. The band is so tight and talented especially the young kid he has playing lead guitar. The sound is stunning in either 5.1 or stereo. If you get a chance to listen to it on a real good headphone system, you will be blown away! This concert was .played at an outdoor venue in a pouring rain. To show how good it really was, not one person left their seat throughout the whole show. That is saying something folks. Not only would I recommend this to any Roxy/Ferry fan, that of course would be a no brainer., but I would highly recommend it to any great music lover because there is plenty of it on display here. A must have if there ever was one!

Elegant, lush, and beautiful show

Reviewed in the United States on July 13, 2019

I've always loved Roxy Music and this show Bryan Ferry put together is mesmerizing. Guitarists Neil Hubbard and Oliver Thompson were outstanding with some incredible lead solos. Jorja Chalmers on sax and keyboards was stellar. The backdrop videos, the dancers, and the backup singers were terrific. Colin Good's piano was dreamy, bassist Jeremy Meehan was fantastic, and drummers Andy Newmark and Bryan's son Tara Ferry kept everything in perfect time. And Bryan Ferry was just wonderful. He's one of a kind - elegant with that lyrical, hauntingly romantic voice of his. When he sang "Jealous Guy" it made me cry. What a great show! I wish I could have seen it in person, especially in the beautiful ancient Roman amphitheatre in Lyon.

it's hard to believe he's doing his best work this late in the game but Bryan Ferry pulls it off, i could watch this forever. I could do without the dancers or the saxophone playing bird who always seems to be taking her curtain call but otherwise, first rate. I noticed the tempo of some of the old numbers like "Bride Stripped Bare" seemed to be speeded up from the original and it was odd to hear him singing his own backup vocals from time to time but as i said, this is a true master doing his very best work.

Brillanter Auftritt. Bryan Ferries.
Er hat es auch im „Alter“ noch drauf!
Der Mann lebt Musik und führt seinem einzigartigen Stil sie zu zelebrieren fort.
Bild und Ton - Qualität sind top. Mir persönlich erscheinen die GogoTänzerinnen als too much - aber das ist ja bekanntlich Geschmackssache… Die Backgroundsängerinnen machen das aber wieder wett!
Früher - also vor ca. 30 Jahren hatte ich Bryan in eine falsche Schublade gepacht - jetzt habe ich ihn ( auch in seinen Anfängen bei Roxy. Music ) wiederentdeckt und seine Qualität und seinen Stil schätzen gelernt!
Es gibt nur noch sehr sehr wenige Typen wie ihn - und er ist seiner Linie treu geblieben !

Il più bel concerto di Bryan Ferry, i misteri dell'alchimia musicale

Reviewed in Italy on December 22, 2020

Sono un amante dei primi Roxy Music da subito, da quel 1972 e da quei due primi album, Roxy Music e For your pleasure, che sono stati relamente spiazzanti, un colpo nello stomaco ed un flash nella mente, nel panorama musicale dell'epoca. Coll'avanzare della discografia le punte più progressiste e genialoidi sono andate via, via smussandosi per lasciare, nel tempo, maggior spazio ad una piacevolezza meno intelletuale ma, almeno dal mio punto di vista, accrescendo una sensibiltà di raffinata bellezza.Nel tempo i Roxy Music erano diventati " Bryan Ferry and the Roxy Music".Molti hanno gridato allo scandalo ed al tradimento. Io no.Ho considerato che la vita è cambiamento ed ho continuato ad apprezzare il nuovo corso musicale imposto dal leader che, pur distanziandosi in modo importante, dai primi album, densi di innovazioni uniche e grande creatività,lasciavano maggiore spazio ad una grande eleganza ed emotività.Poi è arrivato il Bryan ferry solista che, ovviamente, ha confermato questo nuovo modo di essere musicista, fornendo spesso, ma non sempre, prove di grande spessore musicale.Live in Lyon è la miglior summa dal vivo di questo grande esteta musicale. Attraversa con la massima nonchalange i primi Roxy Music, sino ad arrivare ai giorni nostri. Ma lo fa con rinnovato vigore ed energia che, anche grazie ai musicisti che lo accompagnano, trova spazi di intensità emotiva più unici che rari.Ho avuto modo di vedere personalmente i Roxy Music dal vivo, ai tempi di Avalon ma il calore travolgente che pervade questo questo concerto penso sia realmente unico.Alle volte ci sono alchimie, anche a livello musicale, che rendono realmente inspiegabile la qualità inarrivabile di alcune performance.Onore al merito ad uno dei più grandi artisti del nostro tempo. Un solo rimpianto : non essere stato presente.Imperdibile.
