Movie Reviews of Dave Matthews Band - Listener Supported
Movie Review: Simply a great band!
Summary: 5 Stars
Hello everyone here at amazon. My name is Ruben Flores and I just wanted to tell everyone a little about the Dave Matthews Band album "Listener Supported." This band and album has diversity, punctuation, movement, and just an all out kick ass feeling to it.
From the beginnig of the cd or dvd the band likes to come out un announced as "Stefan Lessard" starts a smooth bass line relaxing to the ear. "Carter Beuford" the percussionist for the group then starts to diversify the music by adding what is much like a latin juaira rhythm just totally awesome. Eventually the rest of the musicians come and join in and add the finishing touches to this wonderful intro. For those who appreciate music can really relate to this as mostly a jazz fill but it will grab even the must unaware music associated person in the world.
Hey even if your not much of a jazz lover there is music for everybody in this album. For instance the punctuation and all around feel for song number twelve cleverly called "Two Step" has a blue grass country feel to it. "These guys are Mad!" I said to myself when I first heard this one. They end this song with such stacato and punctuation it leaves you wanting for more! You "country lovers" should check it out.
The whole album just practically moves you from one place to another. There is never a dull moment in this cd and yeah the dvd is even better I think because you get to see them in action. Song number sixteen "Long Black Veil" has what I think an old church hym feeling to it. I can see myself singing this in a church choir. The lyrics my not be suitable but the feeling is such that of the church hyms. Then all the sudden they move you over to a time mahem and chaois with the remake of "All Along The Watch Tower" the ol "Bob Dylin" master piece. "KICK ASS!" is the only words I can think of when I listend to this one. DMB's version will have you standing up if you were sitting down at the begining of this one. They hit everynote flawlessly. The timing, the stacato, the riffs, not too mention the percussion. All right on man.
Finally to my favorite song number 5 on the album titled "#41." This song shows what I believe is the bands capability to work with eachother so well. It seems as though someone has a remote controll and is working it to controll DMB through this song but I garantee it's just they way DMB can work together as a "BAND" to controll sound, volume, timing, and finess. Wow what a beautiful song nuber five is. Dave Matthews Band consist of Dave Matthews vocal/guitar, Carter Beuford percussion/back vocal, Leroi Moore woodwinds, Boyd Tinsley strings/vocals. These guys originate out of Carter's garage in Virginia whre Dave used to work in a cafe where he would hear Carter and Leroi play sometimes. Dave got the eventually genus idea to ask both Carter and Leroi to listen to Dave's recordings and to try and put these songs together. Eventurally they got Stefan ,bassist, to come on the seen while only 17 years of age. In the song "Tripping Billies" ,not on Listener Supported but on another album, they decided that they needed a violin sound and called upon Boyd. Took them a whole month but they eventually got him. So in ending I say to everyone if this album in not in your collection or dvd case then you are not doig you self justice as far as music goes. I strongly recomend a copy of this album for yourself.
Summary of Dave Matthews Band - Listener Supported
LISTENER SUPPORTED - DVD MovieThe turn of the millennium may have been marked by a confluence of over-the-top white rap-rockers, teeny pop pinups, and other musical cartoons, but the Dave Matthews Band continues to buck such trends while drawing a fiercely loyal audience. This first-rate concert, produced for public television, works both as concert souvenir for the faithful and a useful introduction to the DMB's formidable musicianship. Whether or not you relish the songs and singing of the eponymous, transplanted South African at center stage, it's hard to knock the collective power of this supple troupe, which effectively swirls jazz, folk, and world music through Matthews's bluesy pop songs.
The 2-hour show features 18 songs, spanning both familiar Matthews originals ("Crash Into Me," "Too Much") and a few choice covers ("Long Black Veil," "All Along the Watchtower"). With reeds and electric violin to spice up the instrumental attack, and a strong backing chorus to sweeten Matthews's own craggy voice, the DMB doesn't need to rely on theatricality; their sense of drama lies more in extended jams that can expose the material's limitations but stoke ardent fans' cheers. The direction and editing are smooth and fluid, and excellent audio recording and mixing are consistent with the group's growing shelf of live albums. Clearly, for the Matthews Band and its fans, the playing's the thing, and they play generously and well throughout. --Sam Sutherland
