Nat Pwe: Burma's Carnival of Spirit Soul

In Burma, many people believe in ghost spirits called NATs. They are said to possess the power to assist or devastate the lives of those who recognize them. A PWE is a ceremony held to appease a Nat. Pwes are arranged daily throughout Burma for many purposes including the achievement of success in business, a happy marriage, or improving one's health. A Nat is summoned through a Kadaw; the flamboyant and charismatic master of the Pwe dressed in elegant costume. The Kadaw is a spirit medium, dancer, storyteller, and magician who exposes the crowd to a living incarnation of the Nat brought forth through opening ritual and careful observance of tradition.

John Fahey: Live at Audimax Hamburg

"Shot live for TV by the legendary German music show “Rockpalast” this DVD represents the earliest example of a complete Fahey concert performance. The multi-camera filming features detailed close-ups of Fahey’s playing style giving fans a rare insight into what Pete Townsend has called the William Burroughs of the guitar. Fahey’s 1978 visit to Europe saw him in fine wild form performing an 11 track set and as an incredibly rare bonus a short interview with the maverick iconoclast.

Excellent and certainly provocative... If nothing else, the film is a real conversation starter.

It's a movie as timely as it is provocative and amazingly, for much of its running time, it is weirdly funny.

A great movie, one of the best of this year. There was a bit of confusion at one point in the plot, but nothing serious.

This is another Crossroads "winner." All three of them have offered a lot of great moments and this latest one does, too.Yes, it has a number of the same artists from the 2007 Crossroads concert, also held in Chicago, but some of them are better in this one, and some of the "newcomers" really shine. All in all, it more than balances out and gives you four hours of very good stuff.Who's good and who's bad is subjective, depending on which artists you like, but almost everyone I've talked to agrees the "jam sessions" are the best in this 2010 festival.The groups of Buddy Guy-Jonny Lang-Ronnie Wood; Derek Trucks-Susan Tedeschi-Warren Haynes; B.B. King-Eric Clapton-Jimmie Vaughan-Robert Cray and the amazing contingent of Vince Gill-Keb Mo-James Burton-Albert Lee-Earl Klugh-Sheryl Crow are all so good it can bring tears to your eyes and a lot of life to your toe-tapping feet.Those "sessions" alone make this concert well worth adding to your collection of music DVDs.
