Legends of New Orleans - Allan Toussaint, Dr. John, The Neville Brothers

Rating:
Summary: The jazz festivals finest
Review: The New Orleans Jazz fest has over 500,000 fans attending which is 100,000 more than the first Woodstock. Dr John, Allen Toussaint and the Neville Bros are just three of over a hundred acts appearing. They have been appearing repeatedly year after year because of their draw and add to the flavor with their New Orleans type style. It's called a Jazz Fest but it's much more. This video brings you into the festival as Ed Bradley gives a little history of the festival, New Orleans and the musicians and then you see the live performances of these three amazing acts. The quality of the filming and sound make you feel like you're there. The dvd has some great enhancements w/extensive bios, discography and facts.

Summary: Legends Live on this DVD!
Review: This is a sensational DVD of a great Jazz concert. Of the three major stars who perform, my favorite is the Neville Brothers who simply destroy the audience on their renditions of Fire on the Bayou and Crazy Love. The DVD features, including background interviews, biographies and more, are all excellent additions.

Seeing Dr. John, who hasn't lost one beat, sing "Right Place, Wrong Time" and "Goin Back to New Orleans" is another rare treat, as well as a surprise visit by Bonmnie Raitt. This DVD will be treasured by jazz and rock fans and I whole-heartedly call it a "must-have" for any good DVD music collection.
