(5 out of 5 stars)
"Well assembled DVD of two actual Tractor gigs in 2003, both took place at The Buttermarket in Shrewsbury. A fantastic up-close experience of the under-appreciated psych / progressive British duo playing to a small crowd, (featuring a simple, but effective psychedelic light show). Tunes I liked hearing (and seeing) performed the most were "All Ends Up", the unforgettable "Little Girl In Yellow", their awesome "Make The Journey", the jamming instrumental "Siderial" (where Jim Milne pulls out his custom-made Deeply Vale guitar), "Jester" and "Vicious Circle". Then there are the extras - a slide show, a retrospect clip of a 1978 Deeply Vale festival and a couple of Tractor promo clips - really liked the rocking "Average Man's Hero" (when they apparently had a full band with them) and the "World Games" Mtv style video. It appears that all this material, running time of over two hours is exclusive to this DVD. Comes with a 24-page full color irreplaceable DVD booklet, sort of like a fancy mini-program. 100% essential."
