highly recommended

A rare and nostalgic look at the couple that defines the 70s. Complete with the hair-styles, bell-bottoms and sideburns, this classic-to-be showcases the couple in the happiest of times. Sonny and Cher joke, sing and dance their way through the program, leaving a lasting impression of Cher's magnificent voice, charisma and beauty as well as Sonny's songwriting talent with selections such as I Got You Babe and The Beat Goes On. With Digitally Mastered Audio & Video, as well as an optional Fun Facts and Trivia Subtitle track throughout, this DVD edition is bringing the most beloved couples of the seventies into the new millennium with the spirit, sound and fashion of that colorful decade.

not one problem

I had not one problem with this order, unless you can complain that it came so quickly, I had to put it away before Christmas and almost forgot that I had it.

Nitty Gritty Hour is Nifty!

A must see for all Sonny and Cher fans!

I love you, babe!

Even though this DVD was directly transferred from an imperfect tape (only occasional brief glitches or tracking lines that don't really detract from the show anyway), and it's in MONO (Dvd box says Dolby Digital), I still loved this show. By the way, the show is only about 37 minutes long (not the 48 minutes, that the Amazon product details, lists it as).

It had a demo tape/Dvd vibe to it- as if this tape/Dvd was made for the network exec's.- to decide if they should get their own show. It worked. They got it. I felt privileged to get a chance to watch it. The fact that it was unpolished, made me like it even more.

They reminiscence about how they met, and show pictures, all while the "I Got You Babe" music plays. Then they sing "I Got you Babe", an entire 3 minutes sung while they were both still sitting on the couch. Very nicely done and almost hypnotic. Unfortunately, they also have that awful slow version of "Danny Boy", sung by Cher, exactly like she did it on the Barbara McNair Show (from the Sonny & Cher Ultimate Collection Dvd).

It also has:

-4 cute improv. scenes, about 90 seconds each (two of them that include Cher).

-A segment featuring a leggy chick shaking her hips, while wearing a long orange shirt.

-Cher also gets groovy and does some of her own hip shaking, in a bikini like thing.

-a trivia track that you can play while the show runs, if you want.

-Sonny and Cher bios.

Forget love, all you really need is more Sonny & Cher (well, actually just more Cher).
