Customer Rating:      Summary: Nothing SIMPLE About This Performance!! Comment: SOOOOO BEAUTIFUL!
I bought this within weeks of its release and was immedialtely asking myself, why have I never seen them live??? I have all the DVD's available, and this IS the very best. From the "Soul Theme" intro that gives us a sneak-peak at the tightness of the band, to the very last notes of "If You Don't Know Me By Now", it will have you watching it more times than you would ever have thought!
If you can, get the SR STARS Collector's Edition with the DVD of them at the Montreux Jazz Festival, Switzerland 1992. Wonderful! Mick's acappella of Cole Porter's LOVE FOR SALE is "worth the price of admission", REALLY! DROWNINING IN MY OWN TEARS and GRANMA'S HANDS only seal the deal. Try to ignore the awful "costumes" of the back-up singers (Dee Johnson and ?? They don't have credits on the "liner notes").
Fortunate for me, I have tickets to see SR in Los Angeles in March 2009. It's hard to believe, but the venue, new to L.A. called Club NOKIA, is small, only seating 2,300!! Just what Mick likes, intimate, no stadium arena here!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Excellent concert, "DVD Made in Argentina" Warning!! Comment: This is obviously a perfect concert from a perfect live band as is Simply Red, but I was a little dissapointed with amazon, because the dvd is made in Argentina, and I cannot understand why amazon USA don't deliver the made in USA or UK or EU product.
Amazon pls add the country of origin of each product in your web.
Thank you!
Customer Rating:      Summary: Worth every penny. Comment: It's simply the greatest live performances of the Simply Red. Love all the songs. I have seem their live in San Diego few years back. It was fantastic. They just like a good bottle of wine, even better through the years. Buy it, for your own good. You will enjoy every second of it.
Customer Rating:      Summary: A definite must have! Comment: If you are a fan of this band, you will be ecstatic, if you were not a fan, you will be after viewing this concert. Worth watching over and over again. The band is excellent, the vocals are right on, a truly enjoyable experience.
Customer Rating:      Summary: IS THERE A BETTER VOCALIST THAN MICK HUCKNALL? I DON'T THINK SO Comment: OMG OMG OMG Actually that about sums up what I think of this DVD. This man and his band are, well there aren't enough adjectives to describe how wonderfully amazing there truly are. From the first album, Talking Book, to this latest, Stay, I didn't think it could get any better. I love watching this DVD. It's one thing to listen to the CD but it's an unbelievable experience watching Mick sing. It seems so effortless and he truly enjoys what he does, it's so obvious. That voice, that sound that comes out of him is a Godsend. I can't even imagine what it must feel like to be able to sing like that, to entertain like that. He has to be the luckiest man alive. If you like Simply Red you'll love this DVD. Get it now while you still can before Simply Red are no more. I'm actually looking forward to what he does on his own. I'm sure he will continue to mesmerize us for years to come. ALL HAIL MICK HUCKNALL AND SIMPLY RED!
