Brian Setzer – Christmas Extravaganza

Filmed December 18, 2004 at L.A’s sold-out Universal Amphitheatre, its is easily the best video presentation of the Brian Setzer Orchestra ever. A 1-hour-and-40-minute concert, plus behind the scenes b-roll footage, including a first-time look at Brian Setzer and his orchestrator composing a chart from scratch. Track Listings: Dig that Crazy Santa Claus, This Cat’s On A Hot Tin Roof, Boogie Woogie Christmas, Dirty Boogie, Winter Wonderland, Sleigh Ride, Santa Claus is Back in Town, Caravan, Pipeline, Stray Cat Strut/You’re A Mean One, Mr. Grinch, Jump Jive An’ Wail, Zat You Santa Claus?, Let It Snow! Let It Snow! Let It Snow!, Run Rudolph run, Gene & Eddie, Blue Christmas, Rat Pack Boogie, Fishnet Stockings, Rock This Town, Nutcracker Suite, Rumble in Brighton, Gettin’ In the Mood.
Customer Review: Awesome!
If you like Brian Setzer and Christmas songs, you can’t go wrong!! The video and sound quality are excellent. This is one concert that is as fun to watch as it is to listen to. Crank it up and enjoy!
Customer Review: Setzer rocks ( of course) to Christmas music
Ask any brass player if they like Brian Setzer. They all say “no” and then try to hide all of their Setzer CD’s, DVD’s, etc etc etc. I think they say no because he can PLAY ANYTHING and he plays it better than most! He never misses a lick and this album is proof of his virtuosity. The big band is as good as you will EVER find and they do a fantastic feature piece of Tschaikowsky’s Nutcracker.

My personal favorite is the trombone feature of “Pipeline”. (Don’t tell any of your trombone friends, though, it makes their slide stick when their chest puffs up like that).

Highly recommended family entertainment! Great special features on this DVD, too.

ps…pssst….Brian…..how about a Christmas Extravaganza 2 with the ‘My Favorite Things” live? “BUY NOW”
