Hoi Allemaal ik moest dit met jullie delen. !!!!


Dit is echt een Fantastische DVD van Beth Hart.... 

Los Angeles-based blues-rocker Beth Hart began playing piano at age four, later attending L.A.'s High School for the Performing Arts as a vocal and cello major. By 1993 she was a regular fixture of the local club circuit, by 1993 collaborating with bassist Tal Herzberg and guitarist Jimmy Khoury; with the addition of drummer Sergio Gonzalez early the following year the Beth Hart Band was complete, and after signing to Atlantic's Lava imprint the group issued its debut album Immortal in 1996. Screamin' for My Supper followed three years later. 

This live date from Beth Hart was recorded at the famed Paradiso Theater in Holland. Hart is an artist who knows no boundaries when it comes to confessional disclosure and in a live setting it works well. She pours out her soul to an audience who knows what she's about. The music is rawer than on her studio offerings and her delivery is all passion, pathos, pain, and power. It's true she's not Janis Joplin but the comparisons are unfair to begin with. Hart's a thoroughly modern artist. She's listened to all the records from the days of yore and she's been influenced by them, but the stuff she sings about comes right from her own life and experience. Her band may not be exceptional, but they understand the drama in her songs and how to bring it out in front of a crowd. There is no compromise here, no concession. This set is what it is: a hard rocking, straight-up set of Hart's best-known tunes form her three studio offerings. The album's finest moments are "Leave the Light On," with its gut-level spoken word intro; "Immortal," which simply screams, and "Am I the One." The encore here is her version of Led Zep's "Whole Lotta Love," which fans will treasure. This actually may be the best place to start with Hart rather than her studio records because it showcases her at full power. ~ Thom Jurek
