Roy Orbison Black & White Nights

I ordered this DVD for my brother. The DVD is wonderful and he enjoyed it very much. The DVD Audio, however, does not play on anything we have found. It will not play in the DVD player, CD player or on a computer DVD. Amazon replaced the DVD because of this. My second copy does the same...

Great Video, but....

DVD set was as advertised. Arrived promptly, and well within the time frame. Just a shame this old coot (me) didn't understand "DVD Audio". Make sure you do and have the capability to play it (a DVD Audio player)before you order it! I Didn't, so that disk in the set is currently worthless to me.

classic jam

Roy Orbison - Black and White Night

Great DVD -- done just a year or so before Orbison's death. Great to see a young Springsteen and Elvis Costello.

Audience List

Once again, I can only shower this "must have" DVD with praise but that is not the reason for this review. I wanted to know if there is anywhere that I can get a list of guests at this Invitation Only performance at the Coconut Grove in LA. I can recognize Billy Idol, Pat Benatar, Kris...
