Movie Reviews of Bireli Lagrene & Gipsy Project: Live in Paris
Movie Review: Beyond any 5 stars. This guy is coimmunicating with Aliens!
Summary: 5 Stars
This beats his last official release, which is hard to believe. This is so stunning that it almost too difficult to articulate. This guy just diminishes almost every other guitar player. Superb production values, camera work, sound. Anyone savy enough to be looking into this guy doesnt need my help in making this decision. Thank you Birelli and Christian for bringing these interstellar transcripts to us.Movie Review: My god
Summary: 5 Stars
This video just blew me away . I watch it over and over again. Birelli play Gypsy guitar and then a nice L5 and just kills on it. It is very inspiring. He even gets on the bass guitar. The best jazz DVD I own.Movie Review: Bireli's the best
Summary: 5 Stars
This DVD concert was incredible! The filming was very well-done,
the sound was great, & Bireli is better than ever. He may well be the
best guitar player alive today. Totally enjoyable.
Movie Review: Blistering
Summary: 4 Stars
This is an interesting contrast to the Vienne DVD. I find Vienne more musical and organic. This one is flashier. Saxophonist loves the harmonics which makes for a pretty screechy tone throughout. Bireli's playing is solid throughout, though again in contrast to the other DVD, here he seems to be trying to impress with flash and technique rather than beauty and melody. Nice to see the archtop playing as well on this release. I know this review sounds kind of negative, but notice that I am only comparing Bireli to Bireli. It still is head and shoulders above most jazz dvd's.
One thought I had at the conclusion was that the track in which Bireli plays Bass is among the best. I am amazed to see a guy play that well on his SECOND instrument.
Movie Review: very good
Summary: 4 Stars
Everything Bireli touches when he plays gypsy jazz turns to gold. I take away 1 star because Bireli has set the bar so high for himself. His electric jazz guitar playing sounds choppy and I think he overplays on his archtop licks that don't have that perfect swing and rhythmic, melodic flow. Having said that he is a great jazz archtop player but not in the elite. However I think he is the finest gypsy guitarist on the planet. I think he's evolving as a jazz archtop guitarist.....I'm sure he'll woodshed it more.
