"When I spotted this DVD for such a fantastic low-used price, I knew I had to 'seize the moment' and snatch it right up. Sure glad that I did. Very much reminds me of the Hawkwind's recent 'Out Of The Shadows, In Concert, 2002' DVD, also out on the MVD label (see my review). Besides the 65 minute / nine track live Bedouin concert, this DVD also features clip performances from other space rock greats like Mr. Quimby's Beard and their refreshing play of "Lest We Forget", Spacehead's "Frye Dragon" and "Dark Star" as well as Harvey Bainbridge's stellar one-man show, with "Acid House Of Dreams" and Hawkwind's "Free Fall". Plus a few other bands that I'm seeing for the first time: Doghouse, Stereovaccine and Gun Law. As for Bedouin's set, simply couldn't get enough of their heavy opener "As Above So Below", "Dagger Dance", "Chasing The Dragon" and the several Hawktunes they play, like "Elric The Enchanter", "Wings" and "Coded Languages". Great sound and picture quality to be seen here, as with pretty much all Music Video Distriutors DVD releases. So recommended, it almost hurts."
