Review Sarah McLachlan - Mirrorball [1999] / Sony Bmg:This video companion to the Canadian singer-songwriter's triumphant live album confirms in sight what that recording advanced in sound-Sarah McLachlan and her fine, flexible stage band have evolved into a superb live performing unit, breathing added fire and nuance into McLachlan songs that were already stunning in their original studio versions. Always a strong, charismatic singer, McLachlan now conjures a rare balance of delicacy and power, measured here in performances of signature songs that add a new, more muscular edge matching her band's rock firepower. Thus, "Possession" expands beyond its already sensual promise to touch on truly erotic abandon, while "Building a Mystery" focuses its portrait of a narcissistic poseur with a harder edge and a newly amended, adult lyric that's entirely appropriate. Shot on McLachlan's 1998 headlining tour, the concert captures her in a more theatrical and frankly glamorous (if slightly funky) vein than her fabled Lilith Fair shows: in her floor-length blue gown, sparkling blue mascara, and bare feet, she evokes a more demure, Gen-X cousin to Cabaret's Sally Bowles. On the DVD: With 23 featured songs, Mirrorball on video adds nine tracks not heard on the CD. The audio mixing is generally excellent, providing some hall ambience but retaining a front-array, proscenium placement to instruments. Shot on film, rather than videotape, the concert preserves the stunning, subtle lighting effects of McLachlan's touring production, albeit at slight visual sacrifice in lower-light segments in which the resolution is grainier. -Sam Sutherland, Amazon. com.

Review Ronan Keating - Ronan Live - Destination Wembley 2002 / Vision Video Ltd.:Yes, the hits are all here, but Ronan Keating's Destination Wembley must also be one of the most crisply produced live concert releases ever. The staging is superb-a kind of cross between the deck of an aircraft carrier and a Swiss cheese, in which the members of his high-powered backing band nestle in individual circular pits-and the lighting and camerawork are of the highest order. Ronan himself is a consummate showman, even to the extent of flying out over the audience on wires, Peter Pan fashion, towards the end of the show-and no, he doesn't look silly either, unlike Garth Brooks, who did it with his hat on. Ronan Keating is, of course, more your all-round entertainer than a singer, so much of his material isn't too demanding-he actually lets himself be upstaged by one of his own backing singers when they do a duet-but he shows willing by tackling some cover versions for the benefit of the mums and dads in the audience. One is Van Morrison's "Brown-Eyed Girl", an improbable nod to another of Ireland's musical exports; another is Elvis's "In the Ghetto". That's not why his ecstatic audience came, though. They want, and get, "Life is a Rollercoaster", "The Long Goodbye" and so on, all of which he delivers with knobs on (the flying-on-wires episode is one of the most restrained, really). Had there been a stretch of water between Ronan and his audience, he'd probably have walked. This is an essential purchase for fans. On the DVD: Destination Wembley comes with Dolby 5. [+]
1 surround and is presented in 4:3 aspect. The disc has a good documentary about the work involved in touring Ronan's monster show, plus a photo gallery and Web link. However, the extras menu has a rather strange layout which only shows one item at a time, so be prepared to skip through several screens using your cursor keys to find all the options. -Roger Thomas.
