Magnificence from the days when rock DIDN'T suck
Allright, allright, I confess, I did NOT buy this from Amazon. I didn't know this DVD existed, I just happened to stumble upon it while Christmas shopping at...Borders. (Crash of thunder!! Whinnying of horses!!) Hell, I had never even heard of EJ untill one fateful day in the early 90's when I first heard "Cliffs of Dover" on the radio. Having survived the 70's, and (mostly) enjoyed the ...

"The day that you tarry is the day that you lose ..."
He was a big man, maybe even growing in physical stature with the growth of his myth; deadly with his Bowie knife and his gun alike. Formerly a fighter in the U.S.-Mexican war, he had left the lowland's ways behind in favor of a mountain man's: the lonesome hunt, the wild outdoors, and the confrontation with nature rather than his fellow men. And he came to be known as "Crow Killer" and "Liver ...

Pollack's Best?
Despite the Oscars for "Out of Africa," Sydney Pollack was underrated as both a director and an actor. Since his death two weeks ago, I've been revisiting his films on DVD. Least favorite: "The Way We Were"--a political chick flick in which the movie, like its anti-hero, sells out to sentimentality. Favorite: this one. I realize my "handle" and location indicate a certain prejudice in "Jeremiah ...

Basic surfing discography
I recently bought 10 surfing videos to get through my 8 months in Iowa before I can go back to Mazatlan. I think I did well on some of them in no small part to Surfer Magazine's list and Amazon reviews. My favorites are September Sessions and Thicker Than Water; a tossup, really. Buy them both and save the shipping. I've about decided that any film involving Jack Johnson and/or the Malloys is a ...

A great movie with believable characters!
Why this movie never hit the big screen, I'll never know. Perhaps because Courtney Love was having problems by the time is was released, or most likely the reason is the subject matter - bisexuality. Lili Taylor plays a housewife who is unhappy in her marriage to a very chauvanistic husband and Courtney Love plays her best friend. Lili's character and Courtney begin an intimate relationship which ...

My Review
Check it out........ I haven't seen the DVD yet, but I'm ordering it. A word of advice; If you want to hear the songs an nothing else, buy the CD. Everyone is complaining about the sound quality and the songs being interupted by interviews.......Well, that's usually what people want to see when they order a band's DVD. Interaction with the band. Just my 2 cents. Long live Jack Johnson (and ...

GREAT MOVIE
I THINK JOHNSON FAMILY VACATION WAS A VERY HILARIOUS MOVIE. I DON'T UNDERSTAND THE MAJORITY OF ALL THE BAD REVIEWS I HAD READ. MY GUESS IS THEY DON'T LIKE AN AFRICAN AMERICAN VERSION OF THE SO CALLED CLASSIC CHEVY CHASE MOVIE. THIS MOVIE WAS SO FUNNY ! I LOVED THE PART WHEN THE VEHICLE WAS PIMPED OUT AND WHEN NATE AND HIS SON D.J. HAD IT OUT ABOUT THE CDS AND THREW THE CDS OUT OF THE WINDOW. THE ...

Lions Gate, 2002

Authentic and Timely
This film far exceeds the quality of the one made in the 1970s (starring Christopher Walken) about the same historical events and the murder of (real name) Nate Champion in the Johnson County, Wyoming, cattle wars of 1892. The spirit of the film stays with the spirit of the novel on which it's based, "Riders of Judgment," by Frederick Manfred. Manfred was a tireless, detailed researcher, and ...

Grand and Glorious Superstore of Techniques
I want to emphasize that this is not for beginners except for those who may be inspired by seeing and hearing a wide variety of possible techniques. With that said, it really seems to be geared toward the guitarist who has at least an intermediate skill level and is looking to explore new techniques or sharpen their playing. After a brief tune-up, Eric begins explaining and illustrating ...

Great viewing for any age
Moondance Alexander is a great film....very heart warming. It's very clean.....G rated. The writer took two misfits and their lives were changed, through love for a horse and belief in the trainer. Don Johnson was perfect for the role of Donta.I would love to see more from Michael Damian. I always look at the rating before I buy . This film is proof that great films can also be clean films. ...

Outstanding movie!
This is an amazing true story about the rescue of WWI surplus Army horses that the government had ordered to be slaughtered. The heros were cavalry officers and enlisted men who actually stole the horses and made it to Canada with hundreds of them. Evading capture the whole way. One very graphic scene of horses being gunned down by the military that was hard to watch, but the rest of the ...

An American Idol, Jack didn't Fall he only Rose
This needs to be a thousand stars! Jack Johnson was an individual and a true American hero. He didn't care what whites or blacks thought about what he should do. James Earl Jones said it best, "he was a person that was self defined. He didn't let no one define him." Therefore he was a man and that's all everyone desires anyway. MLK later said in his dream speech "that he wanted blacks to be ...

DVD-Rory Block Teaches the Guitar of Robert Johnson

Rory Block

Homespun Tapes, 2005

Essential Robert Johnson Techniques.
As always, Rory Block's teaching is clear and easy to follow. This Level 3 lesson is concerned with teaching riffs and slide techniques (in open G and open D tunings) that are used in the music of Robert Johnson. Of the three songs taught, only "If I Had Possession Over Judgement Day" is taught at great length. The idea isn't so much to learn several songs by Robert Johnson, as it is to ...

Johnson Family Dinner

Ashlie Shyne, Lynn Conner

Lightyear Video, 2008

Rollercoaster of emotion, complex family relationships
I went into this movie expecting something like Soul Food meets Ma Dear's Family Reunion, but what I found instead was a story about a family that centers on its matriarch, who is not domineering but loving, a father who is wise but strong and siblings who seem to function more as friends or neighbors than as a close-knit unit. Then there is Robert and his up-and-down/on-again off-again love-hate ...

Good DVD, Great Selection of Games
If your a Magic Johnson fan, it is a must for you too pick it up. Mostly if you a fan of classic NBA games, this is a must pickup. The disc include some rare games like his first versus the San Diego Clippers (now in LA) and his 1992 NBA All-Star Game MVP award If you were wanting to inquire about the always showtime part of it, then your better off buying the smaller version of this but ...

GREAT! GREAT GREAT...!!!!...
I got the DVD yesterday and had to watch it. Having previously watched Eric's first instructional video I was very curious about this one. This is certainly a MUST HAVE for all advanced Lead Guitar Players. This goes into a lot of detail about Eric's personal style. In Eric's first video he showed styles he liked to use in his playing etc...however this IS HIS style. Tons of examples on his way ...
