Summary: Much better than "One Last Time"
Review: After my disappointment with "One Last Time" (see my review), I decided to give this one a try. As far as I'm concerned, this DVD is a MUCH better buy! Frankly , I was surprised at the few negative reviews for this "Live in Amsterdam", I thoroughly enjoyed this one, both visually and soundwise, this was a huge improvement over "One Last Time".There is also much better camera work and editing on this one. Tina's raw energy and ability to hold an audience really shines through on this one, and it leaves no doubt as to what a class act she is and why she sells out arenas and stadiums, and even the guitar work and saxophone alone are worth the price of admission. I was really tempted to give this one the full five stars, but had to give it only 4 stars since my true feeling was for 4 and 1/2. The only flaw I really noticed was that Tina's voice seems to be weakening with age , which is to be expected, and I thought she had to struggle a bit in the higher ranges on a few numbers, which occasionally made her sound a bit forced, almost shouting the lyrics at times. But for the most part she gives you your money's worth , and I have no regrets about buying this one.

Summary: Nearly impossible to stay seated!
Review: An all-out blitz of excitement and energy. This concert dvd really sets a high-water mark for all other concert dvd's. Tina is as good and as sexy as ever, the raspy voice is intact and capable of hitting all the high notes; she and her talented (and sexy) band are relentlessly energetic; there seem to be cameras rovin geverywhere and the video editing is smart and musical (which is rare in concert dvds!). Downsides are overall mediocre sound in DTS and some poor sound editing (the concert was filmed over 3 days in Amsterdam but some audio tracks were cheated from other concerts). Still, these criticisms are minor as the overall impact is tremendous. I had my lawyer over for dinner - normally a fairly reserved woman - played her a few tracks and she was literally jumping up and down in front of my set going, "Tina! Tina! Tina!"

Summary: This Is Not a Live Concert
Review: Bought this DVD on the strength of the tape I had of the same concert broadcast on Showtime in the 90's. Thought the concert should have won a Cable ACE award it was so good. Couldn't wait to see the DVD version and when I heard the first vocals come out I couldn't believe that they had overdubbed new vocals over the originals. What was one of the best concert videos that I had ever seen and heard was ruined by someone who thought he could improve on perfection. Don't waste your money if you've seen the original.

Summary: One of the better quality music recordings.
Review: DVD's are meant to expand musical quality. This DVD does an excellent job. Tina's voice is centered through most of the disk. Excellent frequency response from highs to subwoofer lows. the sound mixing was somewhat poor so I didnt rate this 5 stars...i.e. when the camera focused on a closeup of a guy playing symbols the symbols were so quiet they couldnt be heard. Video was good for a live concert. If you like Tina's music then definitely buy this DVD. If you dont like her music, I would still recommend it as a test disk.

Summary: One of the best song & dance routines I have ever seen!
Review: First, let me start off by saying, I bought this DTS DVD before I even had the surround speakers, and I wouldn't watch it until I got it all set up. It was worth the wait! If you like Tina, and even if you don't (this will change your mind) and you want to see an incredible concert DVD get this! Tina is amazing. Her version of Proud Mary rocks, and it is hands down the best song & dance routine I have ever seen! Her dancers are outstanding and have to give their all to keep up with Tina. It's like Tae Bo x 10! Also, her musicians rock the house. Get it, you'll enjoy it!

Summary: Good concert, but her voice annoys after awhile
Review: I am a big Tina Turner fan who personally thinks she sounds better on record, than live. This concert is enjoyable, but after awhile her voice is annoying because she tends to scream. Tina has a good voice, but not great, in my opinion. Her studio recordings have always sounded better probably because she can do them again and again until she gets them perfect. Concerts don't allow such luxuries.This DVD is available in a 5.1 surround sound version, or DTS version. I have the 5.1 surround DVD and it is more than adequate. I have to ask why the concert wasn't filmed in widescreen to give the viewer more of a feel for the concert. The DVD also includes a lengthy interview with Tina where she discusses each track of the then new album "Wildest Dreams". The interview, while promotional based, is very enjoyable and contains video excerpts for each album track.
