Synopsis

With its trademark contoured body, twin cutaways, and two-toned sunburst finish, the legendary Fender Stratocaster produces a peerless sound that has earned the instrument a permanent spot in the annals of electric guitar history. The distinctive Strat was invented by Leo Fender in 1954, but it was Jimi Hendrix's preference for the guitar during the 1960s that solidified its popularity and made it the instrument of choice for generations of rock's leading guitarists, including Eric Clapton, Buddy Guy, Robert Cray, Stevie Ray Vaughan, Dick Dale, and many others. THE STRAT PACK celebrates the 50th anniversary of the storied instrument with a concert recorded at London's Wembley Arena in September of 2004, featuring the star-studded lineup of Joe Walsh, David Gilmour, Brian May, Paul Rodgers, Ron Wood, Hank Marvin, The Crickets, Albert Lee, Gary Moore, Mike Rutherford, Paul Carrack, Phil Manzanera, Amy Winehouse, Jamie Cullum, and Theresa Andersson.

4.0 out of 5 stars Start Pack, 7 Dec 2005
By Mike "Epipick" (Bristol, UK) - See all my reviews
Given that the title of this DVD includes the words "50th Anniversary of the Fender Stratocaster" I was expecting to see artists associated with this iconic instrument so the inclusion of Jamie Cullum and Amy Winehouse I found bewildering & disappointing. Also, some historical or anecdotal stuff about this famous intrument - from the players, perhaps - would have been nice. It was, after all, the Strat's anniversary! Notwithstanding, a good buy for guitar fans even if a few fast forwards are required.

4.0 out of 5 stars From the sublime to the ridiculous!, 26 Jul 2006
By W. Thorne "Rocklens" (Warwick, England) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Having attended the concert, I was keen to get the DVD as a momento of the show, and it provides a good representation of what happened on the night. Overall a great gig, with Gary Moore, Joe Walsh and Dave Gilmour providing the showcase performances that befit the type of event this was intended to be.

There are numerous questions to ask, however:-

Why Jamie Cullum and Ami Winehouse were included on the bill I'll never know, especially the latter, who was given far more time to bore the audience with her dreadful performance than Gary Moore, who set the place alight with his one song (Red House). Gary should have had far more time ... he opitomised the sort of dynamic, exciting guitar playing that the audience came expecting to see.

Why was Paul Rogers, as great a singer as he is, allowed to drag his kids on stage to bore the audience with some of their own (poor) material ..what have they done to contribute to the esteemed history of the Strat?

Why did Brian May revert to his own guitar instead of sticking to the Strat, bearing in mind the show was a celebration of the Strat after all!!?? A bit of an insult in my opinion.

Why did Jeff Beck not turn up? Many people, including myself, bought tickets on the promise he would be playing.

Overall, buy the DVD for the great performances, which thankfully outnumber the duff moments.

4.0 out of 5 stars Stunning gig... pity about Jamie Cullen, 16 Jun 2005
I was at the gig and it was a truly legendary night - the virtuoso performance from Gary Moore being the obvious stand-out from a night packed with great performances. Not even Amy Whining-house being dreadful or Jamie Sullen (sorry, Cullen) murdering Hendrix's 'Angel' could dampen my enthusiasm for this gig. If you're a guitar fan and you weren't there then at least now you can pretend that you were... all you have to do is watch the DVD and you'll be talking with authority about who stole the show! The only reason the DVD only gets 4 stars, in fact, is the sound reproduction which isn't quite as beefy as it could be.
