In the eighties Canadian singer / songwriter immensely popular with radio-friendly rock songs like Run To You and the duet with It's Only Love. A seemingly ordinary boy in a denim jacket who sang about unbridled love and passion in a raw voice. And while the success left him somewhat after that, he continued to do so, including on album from 2008. His live shows are of course mainly based on his

Adams visited the chic Sidney Opera House a year later with his acoustic guitar and a pianist. Performed stripped down and stripped of bombast, you can hear how strong songs like Run To You and Heaven really are.

This enhances the atmosphere of this moody and informal concert film. (MR)more
