4.0 out of 5 stars Primal Scream therapy, 14 Aug 2007

By	P. Hanson (Northumberland, England) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

It has been a source of frustration that one of the best live acts around haven't released much in the way of live material. Over the years fans have had to mainly make do with bootleg recordings.

Riot City Blues Tour is Primal Screams first live DVD. It was recorded in 2006 at London's Hammersmith Apollo. The show lasts for nearly 90 minutes and features a setlist of eighteen songs. The sound and picture quality is top notch - though the rapid cutting between different cameras can be annoying at times. The band is on form, appearing tight, well rehearsed and sober.

The second half of the show is way better than the first. For me the highlight is Damaged. Other stand out moments are Swastika Eyes, Loaded and Kick Out The Jams.

The DVD extras are a short but interesting backstage interview with Bobby Gillespie and Mani, and 13 promo videos. Some of the videos look a bit cheap and nasty, but it is better to have them than not. Like most things Primal Scream have released in recent years - the packaging is nothing to write home about.

This show doesn't have the same high-energy vibe as the Live In Japan CD, nor does it have the entertainment value of their Glastonbury 05 performance. However, fans won't be disappointed. And those who are new to Primal Scream will find this a good introduction to one of the best UK bands of the last 25 years.

3.0 out of 5 stars Massive Fan/Massive Disappointment, 4 Sep 2007

By	J. S. Meins "fiftyfirstfloorfilms" (UK) - See all my reviews (TOP 500 REVIEWER) (REAL NAME)

I've been a fan for 20 years and been watching them live over that entire period, and I've been waiting for this DVD for what seems like all my life.
When I think of some of the nigh on religious experiences Ive had when seeing them play it makes this DVD all the more frustrating.
This isnt one of the great gigs by any stretch of the imagination and its certainly not that well recorded (things werent helped by the dodgy 5.1 sound quality on my copy).
I know that theyre supporting their new album (which I love) but for a first live video its just not good enough...if only they could have first released a concert from 1991 or 1994 so we could see them at their very peak.
The promo videos on the DVD are also a disappointment with no Kowalski, Higher Than The Sun or Star, to name but a few absentees (why didnt they put a version of the 1991 Screamadelica VHS video on as an extra?). The interview with Bobby and Mani is also rubbish...5 minutes of them recorded backstage and not up to their usual standards.
It really, really pains me to slag this but Im not going to rate this highly just because I love the band.
A real missed opportunity.
