Rating: Summary: Steve in the early years Review: All Steve Earle fans know just how good Steve Earle is musically, and with his song writing ability. This DVD concert is one to have for every Steve Earle fan out there. It's Steve in his early ears, before the drugs, before the politics, before "Copperhead Road", before he was known as a two hit wonder. This DVD is just pure Steve Earle at an early age (you can hardly tell it's him comparning him to the Steve Earle we know today) but the voice is still the same, and it's the voice that has made Steve the man he is today. You can hear some of the early live versions of songs that became huge hits such as "The Devil's Right Hand", "Guitar Town", "Angry Young Man", "Down The Road" and so on. The audio on this DVD is also excellent considering it was recorded in the 1980's (funny to see how the crowd was dressed). The only reason I only gave this DVD 4 stars is because there are no extras at all, not even a small bio or discorgraphy or anything. You have 'play' and 'song selection'. Simple DVD, great concert by a great artist.
Rating: Summary: STEVE EARLE AND THE DUKES AT PARADISO AMSTERDAM Review: I am a MAJOR S. Earle and the Dukes fan Actually Steve Earle playing with any band or solo is good. I just returned from Amsterdam where I saw him perform with the Dukes at the Paradiso. What an amazing show! I ordered this DVD and I am giving it 5 stars without even seeing it. If he rocked as hard back in '86 as he did on November 7th 2004......he's a keeper!
Rating: Summary: GUITAR TOWN vintage era Earle!!! 10 stars!!! Review: okay....if you are a fan of Steve Earle...it may have started with GUITAR TOWN...the amazing major label debut which featured more classic tunes than most songwriters put out in a lifetime...well, they are ALL on this stunning DVD. Filmed for Austin City Limits (so the quality is broadcast)...in 1986....and featuring 17 tracks delivered with passion ...you simply can't go wrong. I actually couldn't believe my eyes when I saw this at the record store today....and am watching it for a second time as I write this review.
I think Earle has gone from strength to strength over his career and is relevant now...but that said....this is the stuff that his fans fell in love with and its so wonderfully captured and presented that it almost too beautiful to believe that we have this gift of an amazing songwriter at his first blossom!
