THE BIRTH OF THE PRETTY

(5 out of 5 stars)

"INXS is back with Switch. If you own the CD you know the songs. If you have paid any attention to the music world in the last year you know the story of how INXS became a complete band again. If you are a true INXS fan, you are happy that their music is alive again. The beacon of INXS music is bright again. And if you have doubts as to whether JD Fortune is a permanent member of INXS or not, you have but to pop in this DVD. The band talks about the creation of Switch, about the decision to choose JD Fortune and about his value to the band.



Just look at their faces and hear it in their voices. The band is giddy with pleasure at how well things have come together. The band is one again. The five original members of INXS have a new brother. It is clear that he has become their brother and that together they will achieve greatness.



Switch is indeed a classic. INXS is indeed and old friend, and JD Fortune is indeed a Rock Star.



To hear the happiness radiating from each member of the band and to see the smiles that seem to be permanently affixed to their faces makes the price of this Dual Disk well worth the money.



Also included on the DVD portion is the video to Pretty Vegas, the song co-penned by Andrew Farriss and JD Fortune. And finally, the much talked about audition of JD Fortune for the RS: INXS series, wherein Kirk accompnies him on the classic Never Tear Us Apart is included.



This Dual Disk will make any INXS fan proud of Our Band and will make any INXS fan lucky enough to have a ticket to the sold out leg one of their Switched On Tour excited for the day they will hear JD Fortune say, "We are INXS!" INXS, we are lovin' it, lovin' it."
INXS Rocks!

"The Switch CD alone is awesome but this added bonus " The making of Switch" just makes it so much more special. This is an intimate view of the relationship that has formed between INXS founding members and their new lead singer, Jason Fortune.



The "Rockstar" facade is stripped away to reveal a story of five musicians that just want to do what they were destined to do,"make great music". This is about their search for a new member (not a replacement) to be the voice of their music. They have ultimately found that person in Jason Fortune, who shares their vision and wants to be part of this band. As the seventh member of this band, Jason is able to be a creative addition to this band while maintaining a respect for the legacy of Michael Hutchence.

INXS shares their personal feelings about some of the songs off the album. Tim, Kirk, Garry, Andrew, Jon, and Jason each put their heart into this album and it really comes through on the CD, especially through such songs as Afterglow, God's Top Ten, and Remember Who's Your Man.



I hope any long-time fans that may still have doubts about INXS's decision, buy this dual disk, watch the dvd and be a part of "INXS's journey".
