Summary: Outstanding!!!!!!!!!!
Review: For the life of me I cant see how ANYONE can knock the performance and more importantly the sound of this concert. If your playing this on a decent surround system in DTS mode and it's not ROCKIN YOUR A** OFF, then you need a new system or a new set of ears. Cause this is one of the best recordings and performances on DVD that's out there folk's, trust me. I was inspired to write this review after seeing a couple of the one star reviews below, due to the SOUND????? You've got to be kidding me! Everytime I play this concert (especially Boys of Summer), I thank "GOD" for DVD cause it's the next best thing to being there. Do yourself a favor and ignore these "audio challenged" individuals and get this concert, it is a GEM!

Summary: DTS surround gets better at the beginning of Lilah!?!
Review: Great DVD! I agree with others that the DTS mix is not as good as 'Hell Freezes Over' but it's certainly a pleasant listening experience.One thing I notice with my DVD (which I'm not sure if it's a defect or what) is that, on either the DTS or DD version, the rear surround speakers seem to become more noticeable half way in the middle of the flute solo at the beginning of Lilah. You can actually hear the flute sound move from the front to the rear speakers (hummm!?!). Before that point, there is not much going on in the rear speakers, but after that point, the surround experience is greater with more instrumentation and background vocals coming from the rear. Is it just me?!? I'll probably return the DVD for another copy to hear if it acts the same way. None the less, the sound quality is very clean and this DVD is a keeper!

Summary: Consummate professional, excellent performance
Review: Henley's execution of his own classics and new hits alike is nearly flawless. The concert includes several tracks not aired on the A&E Live special, including Lilah, Talking to the Moon, and They're Not Here, They're Not Coming. The DTS track for this DVD is superb, with good spatial imaging and effective incorporation of the surround channels; the Dolby Digital track is somewhat less impressive. The .1 LFE channel is satisfactory though not generally overpowering. If you're a Henley fan, it doesn't get much better than this.

Summary: 3 Stars
Review: I bought the DVD becasue I like Henley's music and more importanly, because of the DTS format. The video was good but I was dissapointed in the Audio. Better than some but nowhere near the caliber of The Eagles/Hell Freezes Over (to which all others will be compared, imho).

Summary: Not as good as I expected
Review: I bought this DVD because I loved Eagles' "Hell Freeze Over". In addition with its DTS format, I bought it immediately without reading the reviews (I should always read the comments before go purchasing)!! After I watched it once, including the "New" version of Hotel California, I believe that I won't bother to watch it again. It is a waste of money. The DTS just gives me noisy audience sound from the rear speakers. Other than that I could not hear any digital sound. Besides, the chorus were just horrible, just singing noise and not doing the proper job. The classic, Hotel California, was raped!!

Summary: great DTS sound !
Review: I have always judged my DTS Music DVD collection in terms of SOUND quality vs. VIDEO enjoyment. In terms of DTS Sound quality, I would put this 2nd to what I judge all other in my collection to as the best in DTS sound quality to: (Eagles - when hell freezes over DTS) Yes, Hotel California is terrible (arrangement wise) But if you like Don Henley's music, you will really appreciate the DTS sound quality of this DVD.

Summary: Brilliant!
Review: I have been a fan of Don Henley since I was just a little girl and I still love his music today. After seing The Eagles live recently and listening to their music and watching their DVD -- I just couldn't get enough of them, especially of Don who is my favourite band member so when I found this DVD I was thrilled. Buying it was money well spent. It's a great show by a great performer and WOW what a voice this man has. What tallent! His music is timeless. I loved practically everything about this DVD and there are lots of familiar songs. I wasn't keen on Hotel California but I have Hell Freezes Over and can watch it on that. All the other songs are brilliant!! Don's version of HC was obviously meant to be different and that's what it is -- variety and for that I like what he has done. Some comments here about him thinking he is 'God' in the concert are just uncalled for and frankly rude. He is a singer, on stage, giving a concert. What do you expect him to do, hide out the back and sing from there? He is having a fun time and enjoying himself.

Summary: don henly the song writer
Review: I have been a long time Eagles fan and particular favored all the artists that have come through including henley, fry, schmidt, walsch, etc..... You cannot compare "hell freezes over" with "inside job" for a number of reasons.. First of all"Hell freezes over to me is the bench mark of reproduction of live concert that with all those boys together puts on a show like no other... to me Timmothy B has great singing ability, Walsch has his own unique blend of input into the show that he does not get credit for and truely has great abilities... Henley I feel has more passion in his singing surrounded by these guys however in Inside job if you truely want to appreciate the man, the song writer, the "passion" it is a great concert and dvd... great quality as a music experience and not a flashy show but great quality music.. My only dissapointment is the changing of Hotel California. He should have finished a more traditional version but who am I to judge. There are so many classics but as usual coming off this new album "Taking you home" will always be a favorite... "everything is different now" is a great version and a underated song along with "My thanksgiving" Desperado in his last verse makes a difference than the usual, and " There not here, they're not coming" is just a fun road song.... My last comments are as a person myself with a love of music, Henly truely is a great song writer..

Summary: Enjoyed the concert
Review: I like this DVD. It is a straight forward concert - no fluff between tracks - just live music. The songs are performed just like the originals and are excellent. I did find myself chuckling outloud during Hotel California but not because I didn't enjoy it. I chuckled because of the comments made by Mr. Narez in his review here on Amazon - I got a funny visual of what he must have gone through with his friends watching HC, especially when the trombone section played the blistering guitar solo of the original Eagles version. I missed the original HC, but enjoyed this version too. If you like Don's CD's, buy this.
