Advantages: Packed with gags - most of which follow on nicely from a previous one Disadvantages: Some pauses which could be unnecessary.
From the back of the case:-
'A unique chance to experience the irrepressible energy and charm of "Lee Evans Live From The West End"
Straight from starring opposite JerryLewis in the acclaimed feature film "Funny Bones" and following his own hit T.V. show - "The World of Lee Evans" - the brightest young star in British comedy performed exclusively for one night only live on stage in London's glittering West End.
The audienceon this magical evening witnessed a show by Lee Evans which had never been seen before and featured the award winning "Bohemian Rhapsody" finale.
It's impossible to resist the high speed sparkle and elastic talent of Lee Evans.
This is the most frenzied and furious hour of comedy you will ever see.'
Ok, This man is a comic genius in my eyes. From the way he leaps and bounds from one gag into ...
Advantages: Hilarious , Cheers you up! Disadvantages: He sweats too much!
I had heard of the comedian Lee Evans , but had never seen him perform. So when my sister bought the dvd , I decided to watch it. The DVD cost £14.99 from play.com

The Dvd cover features Lee holding a balloon hanging in the air , underneath his name. The background is of the sky. The DVD is a 15 ...
Advantages: Extremely funny material. Lee Evans at his best. Disadvantages: First half is slightly disappointing.
I actually saw this particular tour when Lee Evans came to perform live at the Birmingham NIA. It was an absolutely brilliant act and he is a comedian that you can watch over and over again.
His material is very unique and will have you hysterically laughing on odd occasions.
The first half of this DVD is not particularly great. Some bits are very funny but you can find yourself waiting for something really funny to happen and it wont for a good ten minutes.
The second half is the complete opposite. If you have seen the XL tour or even Live at Wembley you still wont have seen Lee Evans at his best until you have watched this!
Anyone who enjoys the silly and immature style which Lee Evans entertains so well with, must have a copy of this DVD. ...

Album Notes
Personnel includes: Jerry Lee Lewis (vocals, piano); Nashville Teens. Reissue producer: Richard Weize. Recorded live at the Star Club, Hamburg, Germany on April 5, 1964. By 1964, Jerry Lee Lewis' career was in a downward spiral. He had never been able to bounce back from his scandalous marriage to his teenage cousin, and the Beatles hadn't yet reintroduced the world to the rock & roll heroes of the '50s through their own interpretations. Lewis' creative fire, though, would never go out. He continued to record and to perform for the rest of the century, his power utterly undiminished. This live album, then, catches his star in the ascendant, at least aesthetically. Accompanied by the then-unknown Nashville Teens (who would later score with "Tobacco Road"), he pays tribute to his Sun records pals Roy Orbison ("Mean Woman Blues") and Carl Perkins ("Matchbox") in addition to delivering definitive versions of his own classics ("Whole Lotta Shakin'," "Great Balls of Fire"). Lewis performs with such an unhinged fervor, it's a wonder he didn't dislocate something on that night in Hamburg. LIVE AT THE STAR CLUB represents that point where rockabilly, country and R&B meet, in a blueprint laid out by one of the original rock & roll architects. After the original Sun recordings, this is the Lewis album to own.
Album Reviews
Q (1/02, p.59) - "...The permanently touring, biphetamin-addicted rocker and Liverpudlian house band The Nashville Teens race each other to the end of every song. This might be the most exciting performance ever recorded..." Mojo (5/02, p.144) - "...One of the most storming live albums ever..."
