'The Bete Noir Tour', is a stunning collection of beautifully filmed performances from a number of venues during the 'Bête Noire' European Tour of 1988 and 1989

This classic Bryan Ferry live concert film has now been remixed into 5.1 surround sound for it’s long awaited debut on DVD. New Town is a stunning live record of an artist at the height of his powers.

4.0 out of 5 stars Two for the price of one and class as usual :), 26 Oct 2008
By M. W. Atkinson "Atko" (Leigh, Lancs.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a double pack dvd release

Disc one features the 1988 / 1989 New Town tour and is finally available on dvd - not before time !

The concert effectively showcases many tracks from two Ferry solo albums - Boys and Girls and Bete Noire, as the former had not been promoted on tour before, as well as an imaginative selection from the Roxy Music back catalogue (The Bogus Man, for instance).

Bryan's band comprises a mixture of old hands such as Neil Hubbard and Andy Newmark and new faces. This combination makes for a great performance, I only wish that I was old enough at the time to go and see this tour live !

Newer material such as New Town and Don't Stop The Dance blends well with oldies such as Ladytron and In Every Dream Home A Heartache.

It is well worth getting just for a stupendous version (surely the best live version) of Avalon, with original vocalist Yannick Etienne exhibiting her fantastic voice.

The set is well paced and chroreographed throughout and the encore of Kiss and Tell, a speeded up and sassy version of Love is The Drug, Avalon and Do the Strand is a fitting end.

Disc 2 is a one off concert to celebrate 25 years of Virgin Germany in 2002 and is at the time of the Frantic tour but with only two songs from the cd.

The dvd commences with The Thrill of It All and the concert features an equal mix of Ferry and Roxy classics. I attended the Manchester leg of the Frantic tour and am sure this second concert will be just as good, if the Manchester concert is anything to go by

Overall then, 4 stars rating - excellent value for money and disc 1 remixed in digital sound for the 1st time, so well worth a purchase

5.0 out of 5 stars A class act, 25 Nov 2008
By Colin Souter (Glasgow,Scotland.) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
This is a superb value dvd with two excellent Ferry concerts on the one disc.
The first concert is from the Bete Noire tour of 1988/89 featuring some roxy/ferry classics (Ladytron,In Every Dream Home etc.)as well a several tracks from the then recent Boys and Girls & Bete Noire albums.The one let down is the dreadful histrionics of the lead guitarist who's appalling hairstyle makes him look like a reject from some horrible heavy metal band!

The second gig is from the Frantic tour of 2002 with an excellent band (Chris Spedding,Mick Green,Paul Thompson etc.) celebrating 25 years of Virgin Germany.It is another stunning show though the Munich crowd is strangely unresponsive(at one point Bryan says"lets hear it for Virgin Germany" too little affect!)I attended the Glasgow show of the tour where a similar set went down a storm!This is a must have for any fan at a bargain price!

5.0 out of 5 stars The King Of The Lizard Lounge, 13 Dec 2008
By Graeme Newton (Leeds UK) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I agree and disagree with some comments made elsewhere. I am glad that BF's voice is quite forward as I have seen too many of his performances where he mumbles inaudibly which is incredibly annoying. I know that he is very popular with the ladies but he is a singer so I found this a distinct improvement. I do agree that the picture quality from the '88/'89 German gig is not great but Girls and Boys and Bete Noir are my two fav. Ferry albums so it was brill. to see it released and overall I am delighted with this DVD and would recommend it. The backing singers on Disc 1 are superb. I want to watch this again - if I can prize it away from my girlfriend!
