Cliff Richard - Live On the Beach (2005)

This unique and exclusive program features Britain’s ‘ultimate pop star’ performing in a live on-the-beach concert to 25,000 fans and vacationers in his beloved Algarve, as part of Albufeira’s 500th birthday celebrations. There are many of the old favorites –such as Move It, We Don’t Talk Any More and Living Doll –as well as new songs from Cliff’s hit album Something’s Goin On. The program includes remarkably laidback rehearsal sessions with Cliff Richard, his band and backing vocalists. Beach side cameras give us a rare insight into Cliff’s personal lifestyle. The ever-popular star talks frankly and passionately about his long relationship with sun-drenched Portugal, which has named a street Rua da Sir Cliff Richard in his honor in the bustling vacation resort of Albufeira. Cliff’s 200 year old farmhouse, surrounded by lush vineyards, is now the location not only for battery charging vacations, but also for the grapes which result in his much acclaimed wine Vida Nova. Join the VIP guests invited by Cliff to celebrate the opening of his nearby winery.

The ultimate entertainer

So fun to watch! Now I know why his concerts are always sold out and why his fans love him. I wish I could see him live. I can only watch this DVD again and again, in addition to his movies. December 27, 2007

An entertaining hour!

At a very reasonable price, this is a good way to spend an hour. The musical sequences are excellent, the interspersed background interviews are interesting and the scenery is eye-catching. Given its length, it would make a fine television special. November 3, 2007
