Summary: Great concert but bad sound!
Review: I live in an apartment and listen to everything through Senheiser headphones and a Pioneer 300 watt two channel stereo. And have a Toshiba 36" TV. That having been said, I thought the concert was fantastic. the video was perfectly clear, and the tecnical direction was great. BUT the sound gets softer on the left side from time to time (You can hear it in the crowd noise. And the vocals through Georges main mike go from super to very echoie if you know what I mean. Also the DVD is recorded VERY VERY low. So you will need POWER to get any volume at all. Like has been previously stated. If you listen through the TV speakers you'll be fine. Anything higher tech than that and you'll hear the differences that I've stated.

Summary: great performance
Review: if your a thorogood fan,you won"t regret buying this dvd, if you have your dvd player hooked to a megabuck surround system i can"t say it will satisfy you,i watch it through a regular tv with regular tv speakers, the show is great!!! dvd is all about state of the art visual quality,(many people want to connect it with a sound system the average person does not have in their home),don"t be intimidated by people that have sound systems that you have to be donald trump to be compatible with,if you like george and the group,your in for a great show! this is a great show,much,much,better than vhs.

Summary: Disappointed in 99
Review: The cd by the same name is fine, the vhs video is fine, but the dvd is flawed. CMC international should recall this dvd and re-publish it with the audio corrected. Either that or they need to supply a line amplifier with every disc. The audio is recorded about 10 to 15db below where it should be. It is the only dvd that I have come across that needs so much volume gain to bring the sound up to normal listening levels. Most all of the other reviews fault the audio. I believe that a mistake was made encoding the sound on this disc, and the publisher should correct it. Until then, I reccomend that buyers who are interested in this otherwise great concert stick with the vhs or the cd.

Summary: For your parents (of which I am one)
Review: This concert recording is not as good as I expected it to be. The sound was close to awful at times as the guitar mix is muddled up with the other instruments. The sax player was very good, but again the sound is not mixed well. I got fooled (again) by the Dolby 5.1 specification on the package. Just because it says Dolby 5.1 doesn't mean that the sound was mixed right. The performance is good but the crowd is old (like me) and pretty quiet. Maybe George is getting too old for this stuff. I was looking for some vintage Destroyer footage and got George lite.

Summary: Poor quality
Review: Video and songs included were great. The quality of the audio is horrible. The point of buying a DVD is to get video with CD quality. The music was muted and flat.
I returned the DVD. I am a big Thoroughgood fan but this is a waste.!!
