Customer Reviews:

5 out of 5 stars 20 stars! Get this DVD of a live performance!.......2005-11-04

Orange Pekoe is now my all-time favorite band (I've collected thousands of recordings over 35 years in many different music styles). They are a Japanese band with a strong Brazilian flavour, fronted by a charismatic female singer and a great guitarist. (I think he's also the composer and arranger.)

The CD has just a few songs, but they are killers as always. The real treat here is the DVD of 8 songs performed live. When I put it on, I couldn't take my eyes off the screen - mesmerizing! 2 backup singers, 2 drummers, percussionist, horn section, keyboards, stand-up bass, and more. On some songs they are accompanied by a live string section and more horns.

The musicianship is superb - watch the organist, the drummers, the bass player, the sax players - watch everyone! This is as tight as a band can get.

The production values of the DVD are first-class - very professional camera and editing work. Note that it's made for the Asian DVD standard (not NTSC), but it will at least play in your computer.
