DVD Review: Capture Comedy Genius with ‘No Pryor Restraint: Life in Concert’

No Pryor Restraint

CHICAGO – One of the most remarkable and influential elements of Richard Pryor’s groundbreaking stand-up comedy was how completely bare he laid himself on stage through his art. He held nothing back.

DVD Review: Jeff Buckley Returns in ‘Grace Around the World’

Grace Around the World

CHICAGO – I can vividly remember where I was for two major events related to the life of Jeff Buckley - the first time I heard “The Last Goodbye” and when I heard about his tragic death. Buckley’s “Grace” is still one of my most beloved albums and watching him again on the new DVD/CD, I honestly miss the man and lament the loss of what could have been.
