Rating: 5 out of 5 stars - Ten Sumner's Tales
I love this album - one of my favorites by Sting. It was his best selling "album" - I had seen glimpses on YouTube and was pleased to find the video. Very Good! Great Music. It is presented as if they are recording the music in his studio at his home in England. The title is a "play on Words" of his last name.



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - Excellent but why only VHS tape?... needs DVD restoration.
This is a beautiful representation of one of Sting's best albums. Filmed in a lush rich style at Sting's English Lakehouse over a 24hour period.

for die hard Sting fans and the music is some of the best songs
Sting has written, including Fields Of Gold, Shape ... Read More



Rating: 4 out of 5 stars - An inspiring video...
This video is great and I watch it at least once every few weeks but you should know that it is NOT a live performance. I unknowingly purchased this video thinking it would be of live footage of them recording Ten Tales. Rather it is the band lip-synching to the album. But three of the tracks were recorded live as a 4 piece and either cut directly to tape or recorded live and then the band lip-synched to those new "live" performances. The three re-recorded songs are Seven Days (a phenomenal performance worth ... Read More
