The teaming of legendary groups Chicago and Earth, Wind & Fire was the tour hit of summer 2004. Playing to sold-out venues, this spectacular show brought the GRAMMY(R)-winning artists together in a show that both individually and together highlighted their revolutionary melding of rock, soul and jazz as well as their numerous #1 and Top 10 hits. Now you can have a front-row seat for this amazing concert, performed at the Greek Theatre in Los Angeles. Every moment, all the energy and excitement of this final show of the tour, was captured in high-definition for this extraordinary DVD.

The '70s and '80s rule as two of the most popular bands from that era join forces on Chicago/Earth Wind & Fire - Live at the Greek Theatre, a two-disc, nearly three-hour concert recorded in Los Angeles in 2004. These groups scored dozens of hits in their heydays, and if neither has come up with much of anything that's new in the past two decades, the sold-out audience at the Greek Theatre could hardly care less. Both Chicago and Earth, Wind & Fire, have soldiered on despite key personnel changes over the years (Chicago bassist-singer Peter Cetera and EWF founder Maurice White are long gone, and much missed); here they perform energetic and tasteful versions of everything from "Make Me Smile," "I'm a Man," and "Saturday in the Park" (Chicago) to "That's the Way of the World," "Fantasy," and "Serpentine Fire" (EWF), among many others, to rapturous response. Nothing too exciting about all of that--in fact, it's a bit like witnessing a couple of very skilled tribute bands at work--but there are a few surprises, as when Chicago keyboardist-singer Bill Champlin takes the lead on "After the Love Has Gone" (which he co-wrote) and EWF singer Philip Bailey returns the favor on Chicago's "If You Leave Me Now." The highlights are the first and last portions of the show, when the two bands (complete with horn sections) share the stage for "September," "25 or 6 to 4," "Shining Star," and more, displaying genuine joy at performing together and generating a huge, infectious sound delivered with high definition visuals and digital audio. --Sam Graham

Chicago/Earth Wind & Fire - Live at the Greek Theatre.......2007-05-26

What a fantastic combination of great bands! You could have not asked for any better concert to add to one's concert collection!

Chicago/Earth, Wind, & Fire - Live at the Greek Theatre.......2007-05-07

It was horrible sound quality, you could hear the band but the voices sounded like they had no mike's! It was very frustrating, because I wanted to like it, I love the bands!! It was very poor quality, I rated it one star because that was the lowest, but it was even lower than that!!

Not As Good As It Looks !!.......2007-03-12

When I saw this DVD with both bands at the same concert, I saw it as a must have.
The good points first - good introduction with both bands performimg 3-4 numbers. Earth Wind & Fire sound as good as they ever have on any CD I have heard. Time has not changed their sound, just brilliant.
The DVD sound and picture quality are very good, as you would expect from recent recordings.
Now for the disappointing stuff. I was really looking forward to hearing EWF's song, "After The Love Has Gone". The lead singer from Chicago actually wrote it and HE comes on to do the lead vocals. EWF's vocal backing are brilliant but the song is ruined by the Chicago singer - his voice has deteriorated over the years and struggles to get the notes out - you would not recognise him if you have not heard the band since the 1970's or 1980's.
Chicago's best easy listening song "If You Leave Me Now" is sung by the EWF lead singer - although he can still sing and does a nice job, it does not sound like the song you wanted to hear Chicago sing.
Chicago these day, have several young singers in the band and with the aging lead singer struggling a bit, none of the vocals sound anything like the 70's an 80's recordings you are used to hearing.
The concert is still well produced and put together, but I wish I had bought a DVD with just EWF on it.

Loving Earth Wind and Fire.......2007-02-23

Earth Wind and Fire are fabulous in this DVD. Chicago vocals are not so good.I watch the EWF performance very frequently and even listen to it as I exercise. The greatest thrill is to experience EWF live performances, I have seen them 7 times in 2007 at the Luxor in Las Vegas.

from a music teacher's point of view.......2007-02-11

This DVD is excellent because it shows two distinct styles of music getting along. It also shows a variety of instruments that can reinforce the students' identification skills. Plus the music is fun to listen too. I usually only show one or two songs at a time. It also shows how bad it looks (at least from my point of view) to be chewing gum on stage.

too much.......2007-05-20

While I thought it was fun to hear some of the old tunes from both of these groups(they perform separately then together at the end), overall musically they were just OK. The two lead singer/guitar player guys were about 25 and stuck out like sore thumbs, playing with these other guys in their 50-60's. One guy with EW&F jumped around the whole time he was on stage like he couldn't keep still. I'm from this era of music and I love this stuff but the production was overdone with too much jumping around and not enough musical excellence. After watching Eagles Farewell Tour I, this looked thrown together with too much fluff and not enough attention to the basics.

Get the live feeling.......2007-05-13

State of the art picture quality combined with top notch performance's from Chicago and Earth Wind &Fire.With this HD-DVD you get the feeling of beeing there Live .Music Videos rarely Look as good as this.

Simply Awesome.......2007-04-10

Talking about a great concert...this is it! Very entertaining with some old but excellent groups. A must buy! PQ and AQ is SWEET!

Good hd-dvd.......2007-03-22

The picture quality is excellent. The sound quallity is also Good and the music is the best part, the two bands is really great.
I strongly recommend this HD-DVD

BE CAREFULL!.......2007-03-19

I saw this DVD at a friend's house and I just had to have it - it's AWESOME and it deserves 5 stars. The reason for the one star is that when I received the DVD the cover said that it only plays on HD DVD players. Since I just spent close to $3000 on a HD 50 inch plasma TV and a home theater system to go with it, I did not think it was a problem. Well, I was WRONG. This HD DVD does NOT play on my DVD player - it is not compatible. I did not realize that I was getting the HD DVD version of this DVD. I want to order one that plays on my DVD player but I am hesitant - how will I know I will be getting the one that plays on the DVD player that I have? I cannot return it since it's been opened so now I am stuck with a $20.00 DVD that I cannot play. I am very, very disappointed.
