Amazon.co.uk Review

Producing a DVD for Play, could be seen as a shameless attempt to resurrect an album which has reached saturation point as far as sales go or British tolerance will allow after the relentless use of tracks from it in films, adverts, TV shows, trailers and even football coverage. Thankfully, Moby's quality control means he refuses to rip off his fans, so the material gathered within this disk is surprisingly good. First up there's all the music videos from Play, which range from the sublime (Jonas Akerland's treatment of "Porcelain") via the cartoon ("Natural Blues" and "Why Does My Heart Feel So Bad" by Susi Wilkinson, Hotessa, Laurence & Filipe Alcada, complete with cute little animated Mobys) to the ridiculous (Fredrik Bond's inspired vision for "Body Rock"). Even funnier are the outtakes for "Body Rock", which show footage of all the dancers who didn't make the grade in stupidity stakes.

Along with this is an hour's worth of Moby remixes all segued together, with trippy electronic visuals for the late-night crowd. Even in the middle of the afternoon you can't fail to stare in slack-jawed wonder as a stunning remix of "Porcelain" kicks in, accompanied by smooth flowing images of urban streets. To stop you from drifting off altogether there are some more up-tempo sections to the mix, including a euphoric reworking of "Natural Blues" and a 1970's disco funk version of "Body Rock" to get your toes tapping. For those of you who thought that Moby--the born again Christian, vegan, anti-smoking, animal rights activist--took himself too serious for his own good, go straight to the Tour Videos section of the DVD: filmed all over the world, it provides a platform for Moby to be himself and he turns out to be hilariously funny as he takes you on a backstage tour of Homelands complete with crazy Scottish accent, then pops up in both Germany and France, proving himself a master of their inflexions too. Added to all these features are tracks culled from the "Later with Moby" BBC special and a separate mix CD of some of Moby's finest moments. All in all a great supplement to a modern day classic. --Helen Marquis

5.0 out of 5 stars Go!, 23 Feb 2002
By O. Southwood "owensouthwood" (UK) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)    (REAL NAME)   
This review is from: Moby - Play [DVD] [2001] (DVD)
In this DVD we get to see not only moby's true musical genius but also a great sense of humour and cheekiness which makes him such a likeable artist. The videos to the singles are works of art and genuinely entertaining... highlights being the "bodyrock" audition footage, which is hysterically funny, and both versions of "porcelein" which are profoundly moving videos. The live footage makes you wish you were there, but it's the next best thing i guess. Moby's camcorder footage of his tour is an odd, yet compelling documentary. You'll love this DVD whether a big Moby fan or just curious. Great stuff!

4.0 out of 5 stars Another excellent "must buy" for the Moby fan, 25 Jul 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Moby - Play [DVD] [2001] (DVD)
Another version of the well received Play album that has won new fans and marked Mobys' return to form. Along side both the videos of the released and heavily played singles from Play, we are also given an insight into true Moby away from the new found commercialism. A 7 track live set from a Jools Holland Special is the highlight demonstrating how the best tracks from the album can sound played live. The accoustic version of "Porcelain" and a high energy "Go" must be seen and heard. Moby entertains us with a personal video including back stage concert footage and then provides the perfect antidote to relax - a full remix of every track you could wish for - covering old school, techo and house styles all to some very interesting visuals! Overall, great fun, something there for everyone but the live set is enough to convince me to buy.

5.0 out of 5 stars A VISUAL COMPLIMENT TO 'PLAY' WITH !, 26 Jul 2001
By gazmcaz@ic24.net (Manchester, England) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Moby - Play [DVD] [2001] (DVD)
A fantastic compliment to the critically acclaimed album of the same name. A visual treat collecting together all the various videos to the singles, some not even seen before. A free CD megamix of the album plus Moby's live appearance on 'Later with Jools Holland.' Also included is a 20 minute film recorded by Moby himself on his various touring locations. Great visuals, great songs, and all presented in Dolby 5.1 surround sound. Brilliant!
