Product Description:
This DVD contains a complete and incredible concert performed at London's Hammersmith Odeon during the band's 1981 tour of the UK. They formed in late 1969 in Halifax Nova Scotia and their first hit "Fast Train" appeared in 1971 the same year as the self-titled debut album. The next year brought the band's first Canadian number one single "You Could Have Been a Lady" from the On Record album. In 1976 The Whole World's Goin' Crazy became the first Canadian album to go platinum and their resulting tour was the first to gross one million dollars. After 1978's First Glance and 1979's Harder...Faster 'Just Between You and Me' became April Wine's biggest U.S. hit. The single (one of three Top 40 American singles by the band) propelled 1981's Nature of the Beast album to platinum-record status. 1984's Animal Grace was their last album but in the early 1990's all the original members joined for a Canadian tour which convinced them to resume recording they are still recording and touring the world to their ever-loyal fan-base.Track Listing/Features:BIG CITY GIRLSCRASH AND BURNTELLING ME LIESFUTURE TENSELADIES MANCROSSFIREGYPSY QUEENBETWEEN YOU AND MEBAD TOYSONE MORE TIME21ST CENTURY MANROLLERI LIKE TO ROCK27ALL OVER TOWNI WANT TO ROCKSystem Requirements:Running Time: 66 minutesFormat: DVD AUDIO Genre: MUSIC DVD/LIVE PERFORMANCES UPC: 5013929936850 Manufacturer No: CRDVD168

Rating : - April Wine is alright
I don't mind the interview segments that run between the songs. It's just the band sightseeing around London. I would have prefered seperate interviews, behind the scenes, etc. in the extra section. What i'm not crazy about is the old school special video effects during some of the songs. Someone thought that this would be cool. No, it's annoying. I guess they figured it would be too boring to just watch the band playing a concert. Wrong, i just want to see the band for how they were back in their heyday because i was only 11 at the time and missed out. Fortunately, these effects aren't through the whole concert which is good. Recommended if you like April Wine. They have a lot of great songs and the whole band is fantastic. I would love to see something similar by other great Canadian acts like Max Webster, Prism, Streetheart and Harlequin.
