DVD Reviews of Bob Marley and the Wailers Live at the Rainbow

DVD Review: Excellent!!!
Summary: 5 Stars

Excellent concert...I own a lot of concert DVD's and this is one of my favorites!~ Simple enough!

DVD Review: music and history
Summary: 5 Stars

This is a great concert and the second dvd with the history of Bob Marley is also really good. It's really worth it if you like Marley. The combination of the music and history make it a great buy.

DVD Review: Bob at his best!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are a true Bob Marley fan, this is the concert that you must have. I first saw this when I was 5 years old and ever since then I have thought that this is one of the best concerts that ever existed. Some of the versions of these songs do not (musically) sound exactly like the originals (like most concerts) but they are still awesome. No pyro, no visual stunts (because after all, they didn't exist)...just pure Marley. In this way, you are able to listen to the actual music and lyrics and begin to understand why he is such an influential artist. He feels his music in such a way that the listener has to feel it too. My personal favorite on this is the final song, Exodus. It has so much energy and personifies Bob as a performer: free, spiritual and as live as it gets!

DVD Review: Mesmerizing Performance
Summary: 5 Stars

I've always been a huge fan of Reggae music, especially Bob Marley. Watching this DVD was almost a spiritual event. Sounds strange, but if you like Bob Marley, this concert footage is moving, and entertaining. Turn up the volume, and enjoy the Legend!

DVD Review: Best of Bob
Summary: 5 Stars

Not only does this DVD contain a great concert, it has a second disc with a good documentary about Bob and his life. The documentary is interesting and has some great music on it as well.

Description of Bob Marley and the Wailers Live at the Rainbow

On June 2, 1977, London's Rainbow Theatre "caught fire"--in the best possible way, of course. At the time, Bob Marley and the Wailers, already huge in the UK, were on tour in support of the locally produced Exodus. While the show starts off with the slow-burning "Trenchtown Rock" (1973's African Herbsman), Marley's performance grows increasingly incendiary until, by the time they get to the climactic closer, "Exodus," it looks as he's in another world entirely. The turning point is an extended version of "Crazy Baldhead" (1976's Rastaman Vibration), in which Marley seemingly enters a trance, performing primarily with eyes closed. By the late-1970s, Peter Tosh and Bunny Wailer were long gone, making the electrifying Marley more the focus than ever before (and for the first few songs, the rest of the band is barely visible). Other highlights includes "Lively Up Yourself" (1974's Natty Dread), in which Julian "Junior" Marvin throws some Hendrix-style moves into the mix, and "Get Up, Stand Up" (1973's Burnin'), in which the audience echoes Marley's words, as lost in the moment as the man on the stage. This two-disc set includes the 1984 BBC documentary Caribbean Nights (AKA The Bob Marley Story). It features performance excerpts ("Slave Driver" from 1972, "Stir It Up" and "Rastaman Chant" from 1973, "Bad Card" from 1980, etc.), and interviews with Tosh, Joe Higgs, Chris Blackwell, Judy Mowatt, wife Rita Marley, and mother Cedella Booker. --Kathleen C.
