Movie Reviews of James Last: The Gentleman of Music
Movie Review: a true gentleman of music!
Summary: 5 Stars
Just plain old fashioned beautiful! It's really magnificent how James Last plays this music with his orchestra.He was the first conductor who didn't use a stick, but just his hands. He wrote the music for each and every instrument used, played by a whole orchestra with people from over 15 nationalities.
It's beautiful to hear those delicate violins, or that bundle of trumpets; everyone plays in sync, not a single mistake, let alone hitting a false note.
SUPERB!
Also very entertaining to see the images of the crowd dancing and going crazy.
Do not only buy this one, but also the other James Last DVD: world of music, that's also a treat.
I also always thought that most of his hits were covers, but now I found out that he really did compose them! He even composed songs for Elvis! (fool)
Here are the hits from James "Hansi" Last on this DVD:
(this European cover shows also German titles, so I don't know the English titles from those songs, if they have an English title)
1. Granada/ Lady of Spain
2. Titanic love theme
3. Beatles medley
4. Rosen aus dem Süden (roses from the south literally translated)
5. String of pearls/ in the mood
6. Morgens um Sieben (7 am)
7. Zigeunerweisen (gipsy melodies)
8. Hit medley: when the snow is on the roses/ fool / happy heart
9. Don't cry for me Argentina
10. Hip hop polka: wochenend und Sonnenschein (weekend and sunshine)/ Jägerlatein/ zip-a-dee doo dah
11. Jigs and reels
12. Biscaya
13. German folk medley
14. Games that lovers play
