I guess a lot of how you’ll feel about this DVD is about what you think of the whole concept behind it, a sort of solidarity concert after the World Trade Center attacks.

As Paul McCartney describes it, he had always wanted to do an album of old standards.

One might gather from the title that all the music included here is Christmas music.

Roger McGuinn was certainly best known for his work in The Byrds. Some of the music in this concert come from that legendary band’s output.

I like this a lot. Basically John Mellencamp had a father and son team film his tour on super 8 film.

I first got a glimpse of Willy DeVille’s world when I reviewed a copy of his then new DVD Live In The Lowlands. I also got to interview him for a more personal look and at that point I realized that he was a living, breathing embodiment of the songs that he puts out.

A lot of how you feel about this DVD will center on your expectations going in to the event.

With Gary Moore’s passing in February of 2011, this DVD takes on a greater importance than it would others have had.

I’ve reviewed the audio version of this in the same issue of Music Street Journal and that addresses specific songs better than this particular review will.

With something like this, there are numerous things to consider. First off, how is the video quality?

This is pretty interesting. I’ve never been a big fan of grunge music.
