DVD music concerts

Lorenna McKennitt has a new live from the Alhambra that is excellent.

Brian Wilson's "Smile" is really good. It has an available 5.1 DTS surround soundtrack, and the video itself is also great. The sound quality beats the hell out of the CD (which is actually very good for a CD).

I have a live concert of Alison Kraus and Union Station. Also has a 5.1 surround DTS available, which sounds great, as are the performances. I think the video quality leaves something to be desired.

Pat Metheny's "The Way Up" is available in HD DVD, so its video quality is top notch and the sonics are excellent as well.

Yes, J.T. Live at Beacon Theater is really good.
Also Seal, live in Paris

Huey Lewis and the News "Live at 25" is absolutely awesome sound quality.

I have had the CD for a while and decided to get the DVD. Well I am very impressed. This is an extremely enjoyable DVD and the band is very tight. Bill Gibson (drums) is fantastic. The sound quality is beautiful (although some may be disappointed that it is not the requisite bass heavy mix) - you can really crank this and it just gets better and better - an extremely convincing "you are there" sound!

I'll also take the opportunity (while bumping this thread) to mention that Jeff Beck "Performing this Week at Ronnie Scott's" is another awesome DVD or Blu-ray performance and with pristine sound quality. Another good one is Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers at Soundstage.

Enjoy ;-)

YES - Live at Montreux 2003

Watched on Bluray -what a fine performance.
Sonics very decent.

What impressed me was the (vitually) note-for-note recreation of their hits without the aid of sheet music!

Sure, they wrote and have been playing the music for some time but I find it astonishing.
