Rating: Summary: THREE CONCERTS FOR THE PRICE OF ONE ! Review: i wasnt a merle haggard fan,my mother is, so i bought this dvd to make a tape for her, guess what?, i am now a merle haggard fan.the first two concerts are the best in my humble opinion, the first is a daylight concert in a stadium and the fans are jumping so hard in the upper section that the stadium got worried and asked the fans to please stop for their own safety! merle is younger at this concert.the second concert is great! close up camera work shows alot of feeling in his ballads!remember,tapes will eventually wear out, dvd"s dont!! i collect rock,and rock and roll,but this dvd has become a permanent part of my collection.if you really like merle you are gonna like this! only negative thing i can say is there doesn"t seem to be any johnny paycheck performance? this doesn"t bother me because i dont know anything about him anyway. danny.
Rating: Summary: You'd have to be a true fan to buy this one Review: If you are expecting Merle Haggard to sing his hit songs in the same tempo and lyrics of the original releases then this DVD is not for you. The songs on this DVD, which contains 3 concerts in one, are are at a much slower tempo. Further, many of the songs are not sung to the same words as the originals and not complete versions.
Very disappointing overall. Only buy if you are a ardent Hagard fan. Only worth 2 stars.
Rating: Summary: .............don't get burnt like I did! Review: This DVD is a compilation of three different concerts of the Hag, two set in the early 80's and one in the 70's. That is the type of sound quality you get here, very poor quality......they advertise it as digital sound but don't be fooled. The video aspect is also poor quality, one concert shot in a football stadium in the middle of a sunny day makes for a very boring lack-lustre ambience. This one should have stayed in VHS format. This DVD is an Insult to the people that expect Quality material out of their new investment. The Hag has done some excellent "real digital" concerts lately, surely the producers at Brentwood Video will replace this DVD with a Quality Product!
