Billy Idol

In Super Overdrive Live DVD

Review by Gary Hill

Filmed for PBS’ Soundstage series, that in itself tells you the video and audio are excellent. The performance is also extremely strong. Idol and company put in a powerhouse performance that is quite vital. It covers both new material and older music and is sure to please both hardcore fans and those who are more casual. That said, there are a couple of complaints here. First, we only get a dozen songs. It would have been nice for them to show the whole concert. Secondly, there are no bonus features at all to round out the disc. Still, this thing is quite a strong release.

This review is available in book format (hardcover and paperback) in Music Street Journal: 2009  Volume 6 at lulu.com/strangesound.
