I became interested in Sting a little later than when this was made so I learned a lot about Sting. The video quality is poor. Although the colors are good there is a lot of grain, some dirt and white sparkles throughout. I know this was made years ago so that may account for it. I don't know how it compares to the sd dvd. The audio is lacking LFE and bass. It isn't obvious the surrounds are used, I had to stand by the speaker to check. Since I don't have the sd and I was able to get this for less than the cost of the sd, I'm glad I bought it. You might want to give it a rent before buying to check it out for yourself. Customer Rating: Summary: This is Sting: going out on his own Comment: Let's face it. If you buy this DVD you are interested in Sting. You get alot more but as other reviewers have said it is not a full concert video nor a full flavor of the transformation of the songs. But you will get a very interesting look at Sting as he left the Police and went out on his own. Every Sting fan should see this. Customer Rating: Summary: Inside view of tour rehearsal Comment: This video offers a rare look inside the preparations for Sting's groundbreaking concert tour with several world class jazz musicians. A must see for any songwriter or musician reflecting the processes of arranging and rehearsing songs for a Paris debut. A surprise event at the end of the film is exciting and intimate. Customer Rating: Summary: Bring on the Night - the movie Comment: I really love this doc/rockamentary. It is far better than I expected actually and now one of my favorite Sting videos. The bringing together of a new band, with interviews with them and him. It shows them growing together moving towards Sting's first concert after leaving The Police. The new music is from Dream of Blue Turtles and some older songs reinvented. The band members come from jazz backgrounds, as does Sting, and I think it gels and rocks! The music, from my perspective, is what I call fusion - rock, jazz and blues. I love this movie and the music. Customer Rating: Summary: Love Sting, Love This! Comment: I really enjoyed this DVD. Great music and interesting to watch how musicians work together to get ready for a gig. Sting is one of the most talented musicians alive today!

Great music and interesting to watch how musicians work together to get ready for a gig. Sting is one of the most talented musicians alive today! It's been available on audio CD since 1985 (now in a newly-remastered edition), but the long-awaited release of the DVD version of Bring on the Night will be a cause for celebration for fans of both Sting and the Police. Directed by Michael Apted (Coal Miner's Daughter, Gorky Park, Enough), the film observes Sting and his new band as they rehearse and then perform their first concert, in Paris. The musicians, including Branford Marsalis (sax), Kenny Kirkland (keyboards), Darryl Jones (bass), Omar Hakim (drums), and two backing vocalists, are all superb, all with strong jazz backgrounds but a good feel for rock as well; and Sting's then-new material, drawn from his The Dream of the Blue Turtles album, is among the best of his solo career, especially "Consider Me Gone," "Children's Crusade," and the brilliant "Fortress Around Your Heart" (there are also several Police tunes, including "Roxanne" and "Message in a Bottle"). Equally compelling, surprisingly, are the insights, intended or otherwise, into the characters of the various participants. Sting himself is a bit of a stiff, frankly. Guarded, controlled, and not a little arrogant (he calls the pop music of the day "reactionary and racist"--except his, of course), he's in direct contrast to the others, especially the outspoken, irrepressible Marsalis, who's not at all shy about needling his basically humorless boss; Sting's manager, Miles Copeland, also has no problem saying exactly what he thinks. With a crisp digital transfer and remastered digital sound, Bring on the Night is highly recommended on every level. --Sam Graham Ask about this healthcare product "Bring on the Night [Blu-ray]" in the forum Give review on this healthcare product "Bring on the Night [Blu-ray]" in the forum Search related information in the forum
