Not your usual Pearl Jam bootleg

"There is little doubt that Pearl Jam is one of the best live rock bands in the planet, as anyone can confirm by listening to any of the 150+ live bootlegs they released in the past few years.



'Immagine in Cornice' is actually a documentary about the band's tour of Italy. It does a great job showing the backstage activities, together with commentaries and interviews with the band. However, the music is still the most important part, with superb performances of new songs and old classics. It also helps that the italian audience is very enthusiastic - they really make the concerts even better to watch.



Another highlight of this DVD is the picture quality and cinematography. Although the DVD is not Hi-Def, everything was shot in Hi-Def and it pays off - the picture quality is stunning.



You will not be disappointed.

Spectacular DVD Immagine that

"If you're a Pearl Jam fan, you need this DVD, period. If you're a casual Pearl Jam fan, you can see this DVD with fresh eyes and take in one extremely interesting take on one of the five best live bands in the last 40 years. This is an in depth look into my favorite band yes, but it also delivers some extremely memorable vignettes and performances that will more than satisfy the viewer. At first glance I thought the DVD was kind of short since most Pearl Jam concerts don't go below 25 or 26 songs or 2 and a half hours of play. That being said, you need to know that this is a hybrid documentary, in depth look, concert film shot with great dedication, talent and love. If you've ever wanted to see a top view of the band during its performance, you're going to get it. if you've ever wanted to see how they determine a set list, you will see it and if you've ever wanted to watch a DVD dripping with energy and passion, this is your ticket to ride.



The bonus extras are also quite a delicious nugget if you're a PJ fan having three things most fans look for. An Eddie solo. A collaboration with the opening band, in this case My Morning Jacket in an ultra solid version of a Who Classic, and one of their epic closers for good measure.



Some people have mentioned different high lights for this DVD and I'm no different because when you're a fan of this band, it's a personal love you feel for certain songs. Mine were Alive, Porch, Come Back and Blood. I'd never seen Blood live before and seeing it on this DVD made my blood tingle since Eddie shreds his vocal chords most AC/DC like.



From the vignettes I especially enjoyed Jeff's sessions and Boom Gaspar's clip. Lastly, the editing though a bit frantic works EXTREMELY well and you get to see all members showcase their talents and much to my delight, Jeff Ament's licks look as solid as ever since I think he's way underrated as a bassist and this DVD shows why he's a great one.



In reality I could go on and on, but you'd be better to just buy this DVD. Trust me, if you like Pearl Jam... scratch that... if you like rock and roll, you should definitely include this DVD in your collection."

Greatest band in the world
