Review Fairport Convention - Beyond The Ledge [1998] / Wienerworld Ltd:

Fairport Convention's annual festival in the otherwise sleepy Oxfordshire village of Cropredy has become a much-loved institution for their many fans, ever since the band first played there for a reunion gig after splitting up at the end of the 1970s. By 1998 when this concert was filmed they were enjoying new-found success, thanks to the continuing faith of the fans who just refused to let the band fade away-fashion and musical trends notwithstanding-and Cropredy had become a byword for the best in British folk-rock. Beyond the Ledge is a straightforward account of their Cropredy concert, interspersed with a few brief comments from crowd members. As ever, the yearly Cropredy gig amounts to a "greatest hits" show. Newcomer Chris Leslie was just finding his feet with the band in 1998 and had yet to make his mark as a songwriter (he achieved that on their album The Wood and the Wire), so here much is made of their impressive back catalogue, including Sandy Denny's "Who Knows Where the Time Goes", their increasingly baroque arrangement of the traditional ballad "Matty Groves" (now a climactic showpiece medley) and of course Richard Thompson's evergreen anthem, "Meet on the Ledge". But the highlights are the instrumental numbers where the band get to show off their virtuosity: fiddlers Leslie and Ric Sanders play jigs and reels with improvised abandon, locking together or trading riffs with one another while Dave Pegg's marvellously fluid bass holds everything together. As with any concert video, it's always going to be more fun for those who were there, but most Fairporters will have made the pilgrimage to Cropredy at least once, so they'll understand what it's all about. Non-initiates may be forgiven for being puzzled by the sight of these middle-aged folk-rockers inhaling helium from balloons before breaking into a traditional jig. -Mark Walker.

Review Alison Krauss + Union Station: Live [2003] (NTSC) / Rounder:

If you love concert DVDs that offer first-rate music, excellent sound and picture, a beautiful setting, and substantial bonus features, then Alison Krauss and Union Station Live is destined to become your new favourite. It's not just for bluegrass fans either, as proven by Krauss's crossover success on the smash soundtrack of O Brother, Where Art Thou? as well as her pop-orientated hits such as "Now That I've Found You". That song plus "The Lucky One", "When You Say Nothing at All", and others are the perfect showcase for Krauss's meltingly gorgeous voice, and admirers of the concert's two-CD set will also find out how funny she is in her between-songs banter. AKUS has never been all about Krauss, however, so there are also instrumental jams plus featured spots for other members, including Dan Tyminski on O Brother's rousing "I Am a Man of Constant Sorrow". The second DVD offers 50 minutes of interviews in which all five members plus drummer Larry Atamanuik discuss their influences, their instruments and their favourite songs. There's also backstage and road footage, baby pictures and more. Perhaps the only disappointment is that two songs from the CDs are not included in the concert: "Down to the River to Pray", which is heard over the end credits but not shown on stage, and "There Is a Reason". -David Horiuchi.
