DVD Reviews of John Renbourn - Rare Performances 1965-1995

DVD Review: Excellent Guitar Performance!
Summary: 5 Stars

The video content in this DVD is very well shot, and offers great insight for guitarists interested in Renbourn to see his mastery up close. In some cases, the audio is possibly superior to the video throughout the DVD-as the audio is totally excellent, you here each nuance completely, particularly towards the end- where John employs an acoustic pickup- in addition to the normal stage microphone.-Although, really all of this audio is fantastic!(Awesome work by John, and Rounder, and whomever else was involved.)
In terms of specifics, the Bert & John /Pentangle footage here is a revelation in how important that music was(and still is). Likewise, the Renbourn/Stefan Grossman performances-and all the later performances show how John has simply continued to IMPROVE with age!
BOTTOM LINE: If you are a Renbourn fan and have longed to see(and especially-HEAR!) his music in a great presentation- Get this DVD! I've been a Renbourn addict for a few years now and these performances have only contributed to my fanaticism. I would love to see more footage of this ilk.
Magickal!

Description of John Renbourn - Rare Performances 1965-1995

This 90 minute dvd captures thirty years of music by John Renbourn. It follows him from the legendary London basement club 'Les Cousins' to his work with Bert Jansch and their group Pentangle to his traditional/medieval adventures with The John Renbourn Group and to his duet performances with Stefan Grossman. John has also constantly been touring solo. This video chronicles his evolving growth as one of today's foremost acoustic guitar masters. Tab/music transcriptions for many of the tunes are presented in the accompanying 64 page booklet. Robert Palmer writing in The New York Times said it best: "John Renbourn plays a lot of Celtic traditional music, and he plays it surpassingly well. But he is also an eclectic who is liable to throw in jazz pieces, revamped soul music and whatever strikes his fancy. He brandishes a haunting technique, but by and large he does not use it to daunt. His music is first of all a music of feeling." Titles include: England, 1965 I Know My Rider, Bert & John Rehearsing · England, 1968 (w. Pentangle) Travelling Song, Let No Man Steal Your Thyme · England, 1971 (w. Pentangle) In Time · England, 1974 Blues In A, Rosslyn · Italy, 1977 Medley: Trotto/The English Dance, Whitehouse Blues · U.S.A., 1981 (w.

Stefan Grossman) 'Round Midnight · Canada, 1990 Medley: Abide With Me/Great Dreams From Heaven · Northern Ireland, 1992 Sweet Potato · Spain, 1993 Lord Franklin, Little Niles · U.S.A., 1995 Young Man Who Wouldn't Sow Corn, Medley: The Lament For Owen Roe O'Neil and Mist Covered Mountains Of Home, Medley: The Wedding/Cherry
