Robbie Dupree Live DVD. Robbie Dupree "Live In Japan" DVD released on December 22, 2004 in Japan and is distributed there by Avex.

The complete concert was filmed early this year at the Duo Music Exchange in Tokyo, Japan.

Robbie Dupree has posted on his website an excerpt of the DVD here and will change it every 2 weeks.

Robbie adds on his website:
"I regret that I was unable to negotiate an arrangement to make it available for sale on my website. The importation and shipping costs, plus a high price from Japan made it much too expensive for me to offer it to you. It would have cost about $45 per copy. If things change and the price comes down, I will be happy to make it available."

My personal feelings is that the Japanese company that sells via exportation this CD at US Dollars 45.00 to the artists for his fans and more than US Dollars 77.00 via Amazon is completely FOOLISH.

Since many years, Europeans and North American fans as well as people outside Japan pay the Westcoast Music CDs and material at a high rate without clear and sincere explanation... This is crazy that most of the Japanese market in Westcoast Music (except some people) still continue this way to do money without no sense.
That's a real scandal and they have no RESPECT for the Westcoast Music fans outside Japan except to take their money outside their pocket.

Please also note that most of these japanese record companies don't do any any promotions and Press outside Japan for these artists, that usually they have not the rights to sell outside their territory but they do it...

Do they have any sense of artistry in acting like this???
I seriously doubt that.
Music industry collapses in Japan too.

I sincerely hope that will change soon... By the way, more and more Westcoast Music artists sell their own stuff via CDbaby.com or their own website...
That's the best way and more respectful for the artists and the fans!
