Ricky Martin - One Night Only

Ricky Martin - One Night Only


Starring:Ricky Martin, José Feliciano, Carlos Santana
Studio: Sony
Product Type: DVD

Editorial Review:
Amazon.com
Fans of Ricky Martin will need no encouragement to buy One Night Only other than knowing it exists, so it's commendable that what they will get is a pretty good package after all. On the down side, without the kind of slick studio production accorded to his albums it's clear that Martin's voice is, well, rather ordinary. But on the up side, he's beautiful, he's great fun, he's not short on stage presence, and his enthusiasm for the Latin music of his native Puerto Rico is entirely genuine.

There's a spooky moment in the opening number of this huge 1999 gig (which took place in Liberty State Park in New York) as the backdrop artfully falls to reveal the twin towers of the World Trade Center framing Martin like Samson's pillars. Once this frisson passes it's good times all the way, with the inevitable "Vida Loca" and "La Copa de la Vida" as highlights, plus guest spots from Carlos Santana and José Feliciano. --Roger Thomas

5 out of 5 stars carnivale.......2004-01-04

Wow the whole show was entertaining. It felt like you were in heaven just dancing to the beats along with Ricky, the dancers and the band. The whole concert was great and really entertaining, it felt so much like Carnivale.

5 out of 5 stars Exciting, Fun.......2003-02-21

Originally I had seen this on TV. I now own the DVD. It is about 45 minutes long and it is very lively. Let's face it, Ricky Martin is not the best singer out there but he is the most entertaining dancer I have ever seen.

I absolutely love this DVD. It is also sort of nice that it is less than one hour. I can always manage to squeeze in an hour of viewing just about any time of the week.

5 out of 5 stars Thoroughly entertaining - what a performer!!!.......2003-01-04

What a fantastic performer - a great singer, dancer, and easy on the eyes...this is one DVD you will enjoy watching over and over again.

5 out of 5 stars One Night Only with Ricky.......2002-01-18

What can I say? Wow....this DVD is stunning! I picked this up at the video store because I like Ricky's music. Being a video freak I then started to take it back because I later discovered that it's not widescreen. I'm really glad that I didn't.
I saw this live on my old television set, but since my new HDTV and 5.1 Surround Sound purchase, I wanted to view it on DVD. The quality of the video and audio is outstanding, and it really gives you the feeling that you are on the front row of a live concert in New York City.
The background for this concert is the New York City Skyline with the Twin Towers in all their glory. Time of day changes with the beginning songs in full daylight and continuing as the sun sets and the skyline becomes beautifully lighted. There's a couple of songs with legends Jose' Feliciano and Carlos Santana and Ricky sings all of his upbeat easy to dance to latin hits. But my personal favorite is his love ballad, "She's all I Ever Had".
It ends up with a fireworks display out in the harbor but the real fireworks happen on stage. He's one of very few singers who can actually dance as well as sing. And even though my last name is Martin, I'm not related to Ricky in any way (wish I were). So if you like his music buy this one. You won't regret it.

5 out of 5 stars Great.......2001-10-03

A great DVD of a great singer. A must to every real fan around the world , especially the part with Carlos Santana and Jose Feliciano - 3 great performers , different ages but so perfect together. AMAZING !
