With his church-derived tenor voice, his suave, onstage demeanor, and his excellent taste in clothes, Harlem-born vocalist Freddie Jackson was the most dominant black male singer in the '80s after Luther Vandross. His eclectic mix of sass and class is evident in his live shows and on his many singles, which were staples on the urban contemporary/quiet storm radio stations. On this Black Entertainment Television concert, Jackson struts his stuff for the ladies and delivers his best-loved hits, from the torchy and tempting "Rock Me Tonight (For Old Times Sake)" and "You Are My Lady," to the sophisticated funk of "Jam Tonight." Freddie Jackson is an animated performer, in complete control of himself and his appreciative audience. This concert, which also contains an intimate "Meet the Artist" interview segment, showcases the full range of Freddie Jackson's urbane artistry, and it proves that there's nothing more enduring than a well-written and well-performed love song. --Eugene Holley Jr.

2 out of 5 stars Dissappointed.......2007-03-15

Well I would have to say if it's possible to over sing your own song than Freddie Jackson has absolutely accomplished this without a doubt. He over sang every single song. And by over sang I mean he adlibs way too much too many runs and just too much of everything. To me it was nothing like any of his original work. I do not recommend.

5 out of 5 stars Freddie's dvd is well worth the money.......2006-04-18

This DVD is great. Freddie is a first class international performer that has never gotten his full due. I have danced and clapped- while watching this DVD- about 3 times now and I just got it over the weekend. This artist work is not dated and his voice is as strong as ever, and he gives you a show! The hard work that went into this DVD is above board. A lot of folks did their homework on this project.

Freddie- the band- the back up singers- and the set d?cor (lighting -sound, etc) and the B.E. T. audience are on point. Now I want to buy all of his music- that is my next step.

Big ups to you Freddie and keep up the good work!

PS: I heard about this brother and his voice- right before he hit it big time and he still continues to amaze me to this day.

I used to hang out a bit with some people at Hush Productions and they only had good things to say about this brother. And I agree with them-his talent is awesome! I also saw Freddie once, getting out of cab on 8th street in NYC a long time ago- and he had that star thing going then.

5 out of 5 stars A memorable Freddie performance.......2005-03-02

Whether you are alone or in the company of people, this DVD does it. Many artists can perform live but only a few can sing live. Freddie Jackson`s voice lives on. He sings songs of the 80's as if they were recorded yesterday.

Technically, this DVD has excellent sound quality. The band, background artists, Freddie and the audience feel like they are in my lounge.

At this price, it's a steal.

5 out of 5 stars I WAS THERE FOR THE LIVE TAPING!!!!!!!.......2003-06-18

I had the priviledge of being in the BET Studios in Washington, DC the afternoon of the taping and can say without a doubt that he's voice is just as beautiful and clear as the first time we heard it several years ago not to mention that fact that he has lost a consideral amount of weight. The weight loss, however, did nothing to the smile we have all come to know and love, in fact I think its even bigger considering the fact that we were singing every word of every song right back to him. ( me especially as you can see on the taping with the long black hair with a chinese cut bang) ROCK ON FREDDIE!!!!!!!

5 out of 5 stars EXCELLANT.......2002-03-14

BEING FROM THE OLD SCHOOL,FREDDIE JACKSON HAS ALWAYS BEEN ONE OF MY FAVORITES,HE ALWAYS PUTS ON A GREAT SHOW. AS USUALLY HE DOES IT AGAIN WITH THIS SHOW. THE AUDIO AND VIDEO WERE CLEAR AND CRISP. THIS CONCERT IS BECOMING ONE OF MY MOST WATCHED LIVE PERFORMANCES OF MY COLLECTION OF SHOWS. FREDDIE'S SHOWMANSHIP WAS ENTERTAINING ESPECIALLY THE WAY HE MINGLED WITH THE CROWD. WHENEVER I HAVE COMPANY OVER I NEVER HESITATE TO SHOW OFF THIS DISC TO MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY MEMBERS. THEY'RE ALWAYS IMPRESSED WITH FREDDIE'S WARMTH AND ADMIRATION, HE HAS ALWAYS DISPLAYED WITH HIS LIVE APPEARANCES THROUGHOUT THE YEARS. IF YOU NEVER SEEN FREDDIE JACKSON LIVE, HERE'S YOUR CHANCE. DON'T MISS IT.
