live dvd/v concerts


Love watching live dvd concerts on my big screen and 5.1.......problem is that many are sonically lousy recordings...ie...Genesis....Moody Blues(Hall of Fame)......Some are GREAT! i.e.Eagles(HFO)....Steely Dan(2vN)...Sting....Natalie Cole....etc.....Anybody got any other good ones that they feel are sonically above-average?.....Or which ones to steer clear of?

Rush - In Rio. Great playlist. Very good mix in Dolby Digital 5.1. Compared to the Eagles Hell Freezes Over DVD (which is sonically excellent, but different), this Rush DVD conveys more raw power and sounds more like you are at the show, not a perfect studio effort. The louder you play it, the fatter it sounds, and I mean that in a good way. Lots of fun, especially if you are a fan and have seen them live. Highly recommended! JZ
Yeah, the audio is pretty bad on the David Bowie - Serious Moonlight DVD mentioned above. What a shame, that's a terrific show esp. if you are a Bowie fan! JZ
