queen.......2007-05-14

great concert and sound, but after seeing the band live it's hard to compare a dvd. worth the purchase, great song mix.

The best!.......2007-04-11

A great live concert by an a amazing band. Everyone should own this dvd, and every frontman should study the excellence of freddie mercury. The best frontman in history!

I wanted to eat it all ... in one bite.......2007-04-11

Wow-- DVD at home--with Bose sound sure beats the 8 tracks and wedge speakers in my 69 Mustang. Beats the turntable and nickles taped to the needle and giant home made speakers (thank you Radio Shack). Always liked Queen-- this is my first Queen DVD and it is great. Nice variety. Freddie whips up the crowd.... goose bumps. Program the DVD to play REPEAT. I like this better than vinyl-- Night at the Opera.
Another One Bites the Dust-- good for pregame in the locker room.

Si existiese una máquina del tiempo, yo no iria a woodstock, yo iria a Queen Live at Wembley!!!.......2007-04-06

Moralmente me siento obligado a escribir en relacion a este DVD. Para mi, este es el mejor concierto que dió queen, algunos comentan que mejor son los de los años 70 (live killers, paris, Raimbow,etc) Yo creo que este concierto reune todo lo mejor, ademas, este es queen en su mejor epoca (dicho por ellos mismos en las entrevistas) Freddy Mercury dió lo mejor de si, tal vez por que sabia en aquel momento que posiblemente nunca mas lo iba a poder hacer. Este concierto lo tengo en VHS desde hace 15 años y siempre lamenté que no estuviera el set completo (en el cd si aparecen todas las canciones). Es muy grato ver el impromptu (demostrandole a los que dicen que freddy ya en los 80 no tenia voz)el tremendo registro vocal que tenia, siguiendo con el brighton rock solo de brian, (para mi el mas completo y el mejor de todos los tiempos) seguido de una de mis canciones preferidas Now im Here. El concierto fue planificado de tal manera que arrancara con mucha fuerza, pasando por canciones olvidadas como in the lap of the gods, llevandolo a un punto mas intimo en un recital umplugged, donde tocan canciones de rock & roll rindiendole tributo a sus origenes rockanroleros, para luego recobrar energias y terminar de manera contundente con el clásico we are the champions. Este concierto reune lo mejor de queen, es el legado que nos dejó la mejor banda de rock en directo. Es mas, si existiese una máquina del tiempo, yo no iria a woodstock, yo iria a Queen Live at Wembley!!!

Adicionalmente este dvd trae un segundo cd con un ensayo inedito nunca antes visto de queen unos dias antes del concierto. Tambien trae algunas tomas del concierto del dia anterior(yo no sabia que este dvd fue grabado el segundo dia de concierto, ya que el primero llovió) y un documental del concierto en si, si no me equivoco, extraido del documental Magic Years.

Si te gusta queen, este dvd no debe faltar en tu coleccion. Lo recomiendo ampliamente.

God save the Queen!!.......2007-03-31

Freddie Mercury, Brian May, Taylor and Deacon!!

No more words are necessary...this DVD is amazing!

Sound Problems But Great Performance.......2007-07-07

The performance is great, but if you listen closely, the volume swells up and down throughout most of the songs. Most evident on "mama" and the beginning and soft breakdown on "Domino". It's as if someone applied limiters to excess on the mastering of the sound, and it's gone crazy.

Exceptional Quality.......2007-05-17

I am something of a fan of concert videos and attended the INVISIBLE TOUCH tour when it launced in Los Angeles in 1987. Of all in my collection, this one has some of the best sound quality of them all. Even a reasonable surround sound system will give an good performance. Camera work and effects are very good, allowing the impression of "Being There."

Genesis at their Very Best .......2007-05-09

I was never lucky enuff to see Genesis live back in the 80's or 90's but i'm Finally going to see them this year (2007) in Chicago and i'm about as excited as a lil school kid on x-mas morning. When I bought this concert on VHS way back in 1990, I was in absolute heaven cuz it's surely the next best thing to being there and flawless from beginning to end. Some of the standouts from the show were - Abacab, Home by the Sea, Land of Confusion, Domino & Los Endos. Now that this concert is on dvd with digital sound/pic & contains extras like interviews with the band, it's even that much sweeter. I own about a hundred concert videos by many popular bands from the 80's, 90's, etc... but this one really stands out from the rest of the pack becuz of it's song selection, location, raw energy, sound & picture quality, camera work and above all else, the superb performances by Phil & the rest of the guys. Basically, This dvd shows Genesis in their prime & is a Must own for any fan.

A stunning show.......2007-02-06

This was an excellent concert, but would you expect anything else from these guys??? I saw the Invisible Touch Tour twice in person, but the venues I went to in the Los Angeles area were no match for Wembley Stadium. Wembley was the perfect place to record this show. Once again, Genesis displayed their superb musical skills and amazing theatrics. The band was in top form here. Genesis was always a band that could effortlessly blend sound and visuals to create a unique concert-going experience. They were so far ahead of their time in that regard. Bands today, even with the current technology, cannot hold up to what these guys did...20 years ago.

2nd half of show... amazing!.......2007-02-04

This DVD is well worth the investment. However, I do wish that the old "Seconds Out" tour 1977 that I attended after Gabriel left was available somehow, somewhere. That's more my style: old Genesis. However, I was pleasantly surprised at the show starting with "Tonight, Tonight" and through "Los Endos." An amazing hour of entertainment (2nd half of the show), where any fan will lose themselves in the sheer spectacle of Genesis at Wembley and, of course, Phil, Tony, the music/show, are first rate!

Oustanding.......2004-04-23

Not sure why a previous reviewer says the sound and picture out of sync. It's perfect. Could be a bad CD or something. For a concert filmed in 1987, the sound is outstanding. I could swear Phil was in my living room. Check out Roy Orbison Black and White. It was filmed in 1987 too. Unbelievable picture and sound. I wasn't even an Orbison fan until a saw the DVD. Can't say that much for other recent DVDs (i.e...Rush In Rio).

Out Of Sync? Not My DVD!.......2004-04-11

The person who wrote the review "Out of Sync" must have received a badly recorded disc. After reading his review, I went back and watched/listened ATTENTIVELY to my DVD. Happy to say, absolutely no problem with my recording. His review of the concert DVD was right on the mark however!!! It is definately the best video/audio recorded concert that I have ever seen. The producers sure knew what they were doing and produced a very high quality experience. This concert was awesome!! My only gripe is that I wish it was 2-3 hours longer! I have been looking for attendance figures for this concert and haven't had much luck. The DVD Cover says 280,000 people...put I think that was the 4-day total. But I am not sure. It sure seemed like there was 280,00 people there. Wow!

Out of sync.......2004-02-12

After I had heard that Genesis was finally going to be releasing this concert on DVD, I was really looking forward to purchasing it. They are one of my favorite bands ever, and even if the "Invisible Touch" era was a little too commercial and drum synthesized for my tastes, I still wanted the DVD for several reasons; I saw the band on this tour at Three Rivers Stadium; I own the VHS copy of this concert so I knew ( or thought I knew) what to expect; and finally "The Way We Walk" DVD was absolutely phenomenal, especially since it gave you the multiple camera options. From a strictly musical review standpoint, I certainly would have liked to have seen them include more of their older material (i.e. "Supper's Ready) in the DVD release. But aside from that, the concert performance in itself is outstanding. From a technical point of view as far as how the show was filmed, it is a great example of how concerts should be filmed. Plenty of multiple camera angles with a nice mix that include full stage shots; close-ups; side stage shots etc. It is easy to watch and you get a nice overall view and impression of the concert; not like many of the poorly filmed concerts these days with directors that assume that everyone has a 2 second attention span and constantly change shots; or directors that shoot close-ups of the singer's head or face for half the show (i.e. Bruce Springsteen Live in Barcelona). No, this concert was filmed and edited very well. The sound mix is also very good (unlike the recent "Rush in Rio" DVD disaster). So what is my criticism? It is the one thing that I will never understand. How in the world do you release a DVD with THE SOUND OUT OF SYNC WITH THE PICTURE!!? Doesn't anyone notice this in the editing room? I couldn't believe it when I watched this. The sound is about a fraction of a second earlier that the video. It is most noticeable through the first five or six songs, it is especially noticeable on "The Brazilian". The second half of the show doesn't seem as bad. Certain shots are in sync; others are horribly out of sync. Mind you, it is only a fraction of a second, but that is still bad enough to ruin, or at least make a lot less desirable the viewing pleasure. I can't believe no one took the time to fix this, or how this was released this way. With a little more care and effort (fixing the sync problem and including the full concert), this could have been a great DVD.

Do not buy this DVD!.......2003-05-18

...this DVD they're selling is a bootleg/pirate DVD made in Brazil. It is NOT official. The *real* Wembley DVD will be a 2 DVD set and will be released in June.

The bootleg DVD on this page was copied off the laserdisc, so the quality is so-so, it's not the full show, etc. Please do not waste your money.

The REAL DVD will be the entire concert, with a DTS track and have loads of extra features, so do yourself a favor and wait for the official DVD.
