The Arsenal of Megadeth ReviewDave Mustaine unleashes his band's arsenal but doesn't empty the barrels on this 2 disc set. The DVD is basically the Chronology of Megadeth, through various TV clips as well as music videos and commercial spots. It's a very interesting DVD because even though it clocks in at close to 3 hours for both discs total, it doesn't at all seem like you spent 3 hours watching it. The presentation is A plus, even though a few videos weren't included. One thing I would've liked was if Mustaine actually explained the departure and addition of members, not to sling mud, but maybe to shed light on why he chose who he chose, as he does have a history of picking un-metal players and making total metal shredders out of them. Bonus features are, well their really are none. Also thereis this constant gapping or "Bleeping", as it seems Mustaine has chosen to edit his language based on his new beliefs. The mix of music videos and Live footage is great, a lot of videos that went by I had no idea they made. I was really happy with this release, I'm definetly not the biggest Megadeth fan in the world, but this DVD was a great reminder to me and you as well of how great this band really is. I'm giving this a 4.The Arsenal of Megadeth Overview

Dylan Speaks: The Legendary 1965 Press Conference in San Francisco (2006) ReviewIn December 1965 - less than 6 months after Dylan went "electric" at the Newport Folk Festival, he was in San Francisco for 3 concerts. Jazz critic Ralph Gleason arranged for a televised hour-long press conference at WQED and recorded it on video. Thanks to the late Gleason's son Toby (who has made many of his father's Jazz Casual" jazz shows available on DVD), the full press conference is now available. This is a MUST for true Dylan fans and an entertaining curiosity for those who were fascinated by Martin Scorsese's documentary on Dylan earlier this year.
By technical standards, the print is top notch and sharp. The sound is the best that can be expected when the questioners did not use microphones to ask Dylan their questions. (You can hear his answers just fine!).
There were about 30 reporters in the room, including poet Allen Ginsburg (who Dylan lists - in answer to one question - as one of his favorite poets).
I won't give away all of the gems which come from Dylan during the 50-minute conference but He's really prophetic when asked: "If you were to sell out to `commercial interests', what would they be ?". He replies "Ladies garments" . 40 years later he was doing commercials for Victoria's Secret!
Dylan is VERY relaxed in his manner and quite open. He chain smokes through the whole session.
This DVD has no bonus features and is sort of budget priced, so it's definitely worth a watching and , if you are a Dylan completist, adding to your collection.

Tupac Uncensored and Uncut: The Lost Prison Tapes (2011) ReviewNew Video/Flatiron films is about to release TUPAC: THE LOST PRISON TAPES on DVD January 25, 2011. This is the full 45 minute uncut interview he conducted while in locked up at the Clinton Correctional Facility in 1995. While this footage has been cannibalized for other Tupac docs and on Youtube, this is the first time the full uncut interview has ever been officially released.
I can honestly say I've seen at least 42 minutes of this interview before, in various configurations throughout the years, but having it here in one complete package is nice. Tupac--crazy, drunk, high or thoughtful always captivates me. I can watch this stuff again and again and not get bored. However, it's sad to think that less than 18 months after this interview was taped, his body would be riddled with bullets, near lifeless on the Las Vegas Strip.
This is the thoughtful Tupac in one of his best interviews. Director Ken Peters asks thoughtful questions. Pac delivers honest, truthful answers. His mind sharp and clear--blunted on reality. He's self reflexive, outlining his philosophy on Thug life, laughing at how the power of his words prophesied his prison stint being in jail (one of his famous quotes was "I never had a record before I got a record [deal]."). He talks about his ambitions as an artist once he gets out of jail and the hard lessons he's learned. At the end he mentions he's newly signed to Death Row records (leaving us with a glimpse at the nightmare that would follow) .
It's sad to think that he (in a way) sold his soul for freedom, and lost sight of his intentions to make a better way for his people. Was this his intention? All the money tossing, misogyny and violence that would mark his time at Death Row? Or were there two sides to 'Pac -- the spirits of both Malcom X vs. Huey Newton fighting for attention inside of one damaged, angry soul?I urge you to watch this video then come to your own conclusion.
In 2011, Shakur would have been 40 years old. A major motion picture biography of Tupac, directed by Antoine Fuqua, is currently in production. American author and activist Kevin Powell recently announced he will begin writing Shakur's first authorized biography.
While this would be an awesome extra to a feature-length Pac doc (Ressurrection, Thug Angel and Thug Immortal being the best out there), the lack of Special features make this hard to recommend to anyone but the diehard 'Pac fanatic. Picture and sound quality are perfect. If you can find it cheap, grab it and gain some insight into one of music's most enigmatic and tortured geniuses.Tupac Uncensored and Uncut: The Lost Prison Tapes (2011) Overview
