((( THIS IS CHURCH!! ))).......2004-03-07

This is the one of the best musical performances that I have seen or heard recorded!!!..This is in the same league with the Last Waltz. Do not be mislead by other reviews that devalue this performance, it is one of the best that is available via DVD. This is what CHURCH should be...it will give you RELIGION!!!

You will play this all the time.........2004-03-07

For years I had a bootleg cassette of this show...I loved it and converted it to CD....when it came out on DVD I had to watch it and get a good sounding copy...the DVD did not disappoint....Jerry is on 2 songs and he looks and sounds great...I would say his appearance is worth the price of the dvd, except that every song is great.....its not a wild dancing in the isle dvd...the audience is quiet between sonds...it just has the quality in sound and picture that is viewable time after time...

too much jammin' ? no way.......2004-02-09

I read the review by the guy who said there was too much jammin' by the guests, especialy Jerry ! This convinced me to buy this DVD. It's great, and he's right, all the guests jam based on Bruce's intensity on the keyboard. Why would you want a concert to sound like a studio disc ? They make Classic hits formats for people that want that sound.

It should be a lot better than this.......2004-02-03

I've waited alongtime for Bruce Hornsby to come out on DVD. I was disappointed. Its too much like watching a VHS tape. After watching the Eagles Hell Freezes Over DVD and a few others, you expect the sound and video on new DVD's to be up to current standards. This was not. I don't understand why they wouldn't do a new concert using today's video and audio capabilities. I would hope if Bruce does another DVD, that it also include some of his other songs that were not on this DVD. Looks like I'll have to keep waiting.

Only if you're a DIE HARD Bruce fan........2004-01-28

All in all, pretty disappointing!
Believe me, I really dig Bruce's music and own five of his albums (which I really love!) ...but...
Track listing gives 11 songs, but last one (These arms of mine) is actually an edit played over the titles!
The audio, while pretty good, is in some places a bit muddled with all the "jamming" going on, too many 'special guests' which only add to the confusion - take Jerry Garcia for example - he plays and plays and just ruins the ambience of the tune...go away Jerry!
Real gems in this performance are 'Across the river', 'Lost Soul' and 'The way it is'.
Any fans of "Valley Road" will have to make do with the Nitty Gritty fast version.
Few classic Hornsby tunes here, not enough to enjoy and bad editing all add to the let-down. Like to see Bruce play with just the band and concentrate the show on pure melody and song perfection with all the hits.
Too few songs and a poor stage set. Sorry folks, but still waiting for a decent, all inclusive and longer DVD!
