Lordy lordy, there is some serious testifying going on here. What's more, the titles ("Let Us Worship Him," "Just a Prayer Away," "The Battle Is the Lord's"), the setting (a Washington, D.C. church), and the febrile audience response leave no doubt that Yolanda Adams is a gospel singer. But this two-hour program (including interviews that can be viewed separately) has a decidedly contemporary feel. The music has the sound of commercial R&B or smooth jazz; the influence of artists like Stevie Wonder and Donny Hathaway is readily apparent; there are costume changes and a light show; there's even a video (for "Gotta Have Love") that can only be described as hip-hop. That's not to say that Adams plans to go the route traveled by Aretha Franklin, Whitney Houston, and others who made the transition from the pew to the pop charts. But one thing is certain: this ain't your grandmother's church music. Glory hallelujah! --Sam Graham

LONGING FOR A PROPER DVD.......2006-04-05

I previewed this DVD at a music shop and I was disappointed with what I saw. I love Yolanda's "The battle's is the Lord's" and I have a couple of CD's by her, however I saw this DVD after I had purchased CC Winans "The Throne Room" DVD and Kirk Whalum's "Gospel according to Jazz Chapter II" DVD, and I was appalled by the poor quality of Yolanda's offering. That small stage, so cramped! Mostly she stands in one spot. The lighting is poor. It's impossible to see other musicians on stage. Those antiqueted boxes for the different sections? Yolanda obviously still owes her fans a DVD. The song selection is okay though.

Poor Quality recording and sound selection.......2006-03-20

I am a big fan of Yolanda Adams and she definitely did not disappoint me with this performance. She has energy, spirit, and a great deal of joy and inspiration to share with viewers. I recommend this over and over again!!!

Yolanda Adams - Live in Concert.......2005-10-03

Great singing and praising, but somehow disappointed at the content and the way the DVD has been put together. I compared this DVD with Bebe Winans and the package that he delivered is of a better qaulity.

An Amazing Inspiration.......2003-04-11

Yolanda Adams Live in Concert-An Unforgettable Evening deserves it's 5 stars recieved by me. This spriritual journey is the best I've seen in years. It did everything I wanted it to do, lift the spirits in me, and bring out the holy ghosts. It made me feel so good about my Christianity and how God is a wonderful man. In most churches you don't get this much learning expierence as Yolanda gave to me. Yolanda Adams is truely an inspriring person and she really inspires me. I give this outstanding performance 2 thumbs up!
