Movie Reviews of Hoodoo Gurus: Tunnel Vision
Movie Review: So That's Hoo They Are!
Summary: 5 Stars
I only got to see the Gurus once in 1986 on the Bangles tour in Denver Colorado, but it was such a great show I've remained a fan ever since. This DVD gives you more than your money's worth. I liked the disc 2 retrospective the best. The videos and live songs are really nice, but let's face it the Gurus always sounded better than they looked!
Also, I tend to prefer their non-single cuts more... Brad Shepard's "Desiree" from Kinky or "Gospel Train" and "The Mountain" from Crank. So watching somewhat cheesy vids of their hits was entertaining, but felt a little silly. The songs have aged like fine wine, but not the vids I'm afraid!
That said, the couple of videos for the newer songs... the California one and Domino are very well done. Domino is really cool animation and worth repeat viewing... adds to the song instead of being silly. NICE work guys!
One thing that struck me is Faulkner as the lead man could have stepped back just a little bit from time to time and let the rest of the band jam some more... especially Brad S. of course who should be allowed to noodle like Jimmy Page once in a while on stage. In general, they are too tight and focused in their live performances on this disc. Cut it loose a little boys and mess around some more and let the other band members have the spotlight.
Anyway, this DVD is great for existing fans... casual acquaintances might do better listening before viewing. I personally love their later work more than their earlier stuff (Mars Needs Guitars excepted, that's a perfect record), but it's all very good. Mach Schau is really excellent too... you can't go wrong with the Guru's, just beware of Dave's hair in the early days and you should be fine!
