Reader Reviews
I am an avid Beatles fan and I was just blown away by the concert. A. The Performances Great musicians and friends/collaborators of George: Eric Clapton, Jeff Lynne, Tom Petty, Billy Preston, Ringo Starr, Paul McCartney, etc. do an outstanding job and everyone of them put their heart and soul into the songs of George Harrison and make them come alive. It is eerie, but when you listen to Clapton singing "While My Guitar Gently Weeps," Paul McCartney singing "All Things Must Pass," or Billy Preston singing "My Sweet Lord," you could sense the presence of George as they're singing! Their renditions of Harrison's songs were just as masterful as George singing them. Those 3 songs stood out to me. Some other musical highlights: 1) Ringo Starr's touching rendition of "Photograph" (the words take on a completely new meaning in this tribute) and "Honey Don't." 2) Anoushka Shankar's beautiful sitar playing accompanying Jeff Lynne's rendition of "The Inner Light." 3) Joe Brown's tender covers of "Here Comes the Sun" and "I'll See You in My Dreams." 4) Dhani Harrison's acknowledgement and thanks to all the musicians playing. 5) Paul McCartney and Ringo Starr playing together for the 1st time live in over 40 years!!! And they seem to be having a good time! 6) Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers and their exciting performance of "Taxman" and spot-on re-endition of "I Need You." 7) Billy Preston's enthusiastic singing of "My Sweet Lord" 8) The funny song "Lumberjack" by Monty Python which really lightened up the crowd and the occasion. B. The Editing I also liked how the DVD focussed its shots mostly on the musicians performing the songs, rather than panning to the audience and then back to the musicians. (This back and forth between the musicians and then the audience is a very annoying feature which plagues the Paul McCartney "live" DVDs). C. The Unique Layout of the Discs This movie is organized in an interesting fashion: Disc 1 features the whole complete concert ( 2 hr 26 min) -- you cannot do any chapter or song selections. Disc 2 is the theatrical version (2 hr 20 min) -- these are songs from the concert rearranged in order and backstage/ rehearsal scenes/ interviews of the musicians are interspersed within the songs. You can do scene / chapter selection for Disc 2. D. Some Reservations Even though the "Lumberjack" song was very funny and lightened up the occasion, I didn't care for the song "Sit on My Face" or the mooning of the audience when the Python members bared their rear-ends to the audience. I felt this dampened the whole respectability and dignity of the whole concert. Summary: That aside, I highly recommend this DVD. The performances are outstanding; the picture and sound quality are excellent. If you're a Beatles fan and a fan of George, you'll love this DVD! A must-have! One of the best concert DVDs you can get!
