Summary: Hoping for the DVD version
Review: I truly love the Everly Brothers' harmonies!! This was one, if not the, best concert I have ever watched!! I found myself replaying the tape five times in one night. It was that good!! I hope that the DVD version will be coming out soon so that I won't wear it out and here's hoping there will be some extra goodies on that one!!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Two Great Sounding Guys
Review: I've been a fan of the Everlys forever and have been hoping for a release of the Reunion Concert on DVD for years. This DVD does not disappoint as far as quality and sound. A bit short and it doesn't have all of the songs they sang at the Reunion Concert, but it will show music fans why these guys are in both the Rock & Roll and County Music Hall of Fame.

Harmony singing doesn't get any better than this.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: There were TWO reunion concerts!!!
Review: Most of us seem to have forgotten that back in 1983 actually 2 concerts were played: both on 22nd and 23rd September The Everly Brothers played at the Royal Albert Hall in London. The several CD releases are recordings of one these concerts, but this DVD release is the other show! So, no complaints about this release as being "incomplete" or whatever......
Just compare the songs to the ones on the CD's, and you'll find out that these are different recordings. Both the DVD and the CD's state September 23rd as date of recording, but one of them must be wrong.
Differences can be heard clearly on Don's solo singing parts: Cathy's Clown and Love Is Strange are obvious examples. Even Bye Bye Love is treated differently by Don in his second solo part.
So get hold of this film! By doing so, you get a hold on the first or second reunion concert! (I honestly can't tell which concert is 23rd September or not...)
Futhermore, just watch Don and Phil looking at each other during Let It Be Me.....how close to perfect harmony can you get?? Well, this actually IS perfect harmony! Enjoy!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Yes, there are a couple of new songs added,should be more
Review: Ok, I actually own the Dvd and I have the original video. There are a couple of new songs so to speak. "So Sad", "ebony eyes" and "A Long Time Gone" were not on the original video. A Long time gone was listed on the video but not actually on it. I gave this Dvd 5 stars because Don & Phil are the best but I was let down that all the other songs, to many to list were not included on this re-release. By the way people stop reviewing before the video or DVD is out! You don't have a clue!

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: Where Is The Music...Terrible Recording.
Review: Sad to say this concert was Poorly Recorded.I have a Great Sound System and I was really expecting to hear some Great Music.I went to an Everly Brothers Concert at Circle Star many years ago and the sound is Terrible there but at least the Band Sounded Nice and Tight.On this Show Alvin Lee and the Boys seem to be shuffling through these Songs which actually does not make a difference since the Band Sound on this DVD is Terrible.Just a Bad Recording.I wonder who Mastered this Concert they should be Fired.The only Plus is Phil and Don's Vocals are worth it.

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: At Long Last
Review: Thank you, thank you, thank you. This amazing concert is finally coming to DVD? Pinch me!

I've seen the Everly Brothers perform 13 times over the past several years. In fact, it was the original PBS broadcast of this historic concert that made me re-discover the incredible vocal harmony of Phil and Don.

Now that live performances by this trailblazing duo are rare indeed, it's comforting to know that this concert is about to be released in digital format.

Fans of rock and roll music from the fifties to the present day will thoroughly enjoy this presentation. I can't wait for its release. Wow, a belated Christmas present!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Everly Brothers Reunion Concert
Review: The DVD was very good. But why did it have to be so short?
as the other reviewer above said. They could have presented the whole concert if they are bringing this great concert out on
DVD.

Rating: 2 stars
Summary: The Everly Brothers Deserve Better
Review: The Everly Brothers have been on my best-loved list since the late 50s and I thoroughly enjoyed the VHS version of their heralded Reunion Concert. I couldn't wait for the new DVD technology to catch up with this great show. Upon watching this DVD version for the first time I can only express my disappointment in the sound and picture quality. The Everly Brothers were in A-1 form, their British fans pretty much sat on their hands, and the sound and picture quality were awful. Don't waste your money on the DVD -- buy the VHS version and ENJOY!!!

Rating: 4 stars
Summary: WOW
Review: The first time I played this DVD, I thought to myself........"great material and a reasonable job on the sound......too bad they couldn't clean up the picture quality a bit." The next day I took another look and realized I didn't have surround sound turned on the first time through. What a difference a day makes! Considering this was recorded 20 years ago, the sound is absolutely superb! And don't get me wrong, the picture isn't bad....it just isn't up to 2003 standards.

I will treasure this DVD along with my other DVD concert gems. But the best part is that it gives me hope that the technology will be used to bring new life to other master performances of the 60's, 70's and 80's. Great concert......"please sir, can I have more?"

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: NO more paying mucho deniro for excellent oop material
Review: This is why i love dvd. Excellent video quality and sound. I now have this on dvd and its simply astounding. It has some extra songs that were not included in the orginal VHS release, and perhaps when it aired on PBS. They play all their hits with a excellent Nashville band backing them. They chit chat and tell stories...its a good time, it will put a smile on your face. If you are a Everly Brothers fan, this is for you. If your not "into" watching them play but love listening to the music, then this in itself is better than listening to it on CD. Dont forget to thank your stars that they released this after decades of new eras and trends in music that makes this look outmoded and forgotten.
