Yngwie Malmsteen: Far Beyond the Sun
Overview: Inspired by the flamboyance of Hendrix, the digitally dextrous Swede started out playing in bands, but it wasn't long before he was putting his name (and what a name!) to line-ups skilled enough to support a six-string style that leans as much towards the world of classical music as that of rock. In the course of an ongoing career that encompasses ground-breaking music, global gigging, award winning albums, and as many front covers & critical backslaps as one lifetime can sensibly handle, Malmsteen has virtually reinvented the guitar as an instrument to be seen with. This DVD set includes 4 promo videos ("Bedroom Eyes," "Heaven Tonight," "Save Our Love," and "You Don't Remember"), plus an interview with Barry Barnes conducted in 2006 at Malmsteen's studio in Miami, FL.

Jeff Scott Soto: JSS Live At The Gods 2002
Overview: The annual Gods Festival in England marked the official debut of Jeff Scott Soto as a solo artist. Jeff has one of the most prolific careers in hard rock music, having been involved with numerous artists such as Yngwie Malmsteen, Talisman, Axel Rudi Pell, Eyes, Takara and countless others. Jeff's set was hailed the highlight of the festival and when reflecting on the very day such giants in the melodic rock world such as Eric Martin (Mr. Big) Harem Scarem, Hardline and Honeymoon Suite also graced the stage then this was no small achievement. The set takes us on a nostalgic trip through Jeff's musical journey, including favourites from his past and present.

A truly exquisite performance, where the band played many fan favorites including two Talisman songs, as well as one song each from Eclipse and Work of Art. The Eclipse song was Bleed & Scream which was sung by Erik Martensson and the Work Of Art song was The Great Fall where the band were joined by Lars Säfsund, lead singer W.O.A.

Axel Rudi Pell & Friends: Magic Moments (25th Anniversary)
Overview: Axel Rudi Pell has been at this metal game for a while. Following up on last year's excellent "Into The Storm" studio offering, the German axeman has unleashed this live mega set. This is a 25th anniversary show and loaded with special guests. It also has a DVD and Blu ray counterpart, but we'll be focusing on the cd version here. The disc opens with four tracks from Axel's first band STEELER with opener "Call Her Princess" being the highlight. This is nuts and bolts 80's German steel with speedy riffs and chunky drums. Pell's later material played here after he went solo like "Nasty Reputation" and "Warrior" tends to get more melodic and ornate in line with a vintage RAINBOW sound. The remainder of the first disc focuses on the first part of Axel's career with vocalists Rob Rock and Jeff Scott Soto making guest appearances.
