Summary: Different Era-Same Energy!
Review: In 1989 the Bee Gees went on a world tour that was exhaustive. Pulling no punches with a high-tech designed set, the stage was well produced. All the hits are here (27 songs total) and the sound is crisp and clear. Note that this is not DTS available as "One Night Only" is, but the presentation seems more intimate than Las Vegas's huge concert. Filmed in Melbourne, Australia, the Gibbs seem more relaxed and it shows. Typical of most concert DVD's, there is a Discography and a Timeline noting all the hgihlights of the Bee Gees career. The biggest highlight is the concert itself with a knockout light show that rivals "One Night Only". See for yourself.

Summary: A great reminder of how good these guys really were.
Review: Since the unfortunate passing of Maurice Gibb earlier this year, we will never be able to see the Brothers Gibb perform and sadly all that is left visually, is a few concert performances. This one is special as it is their first tour comeback since their disco days and they are in terrific form.
I have their One Night Only dvd, which is superior in sound quality due to the DTS format, but the camera work and the atmosphere in this concert, filmed in Australia, is nothing short of superb. The video quality and filming is excellent and the sound is more than adequate.
It is also the only true video record of the three Gibbs in concert that provides a glimpse of their superb music and harmonies at a point in their careers where they were once again on the rise and greatly appreciated. I prefer to remember them in this concert as opposed to the One Night Only one as they not only look better (youth is so fleeting), but they also, in my opinion sound better. A bonus is the number of new songs included in this concert such as One, Julliette, etc.
This is the Bee Gees in their prime and that is the way you would want to remember them. Barry's dominate voice demonstates his great range and perfect pitch and Robin, the perfectionist, is sensational on his solo numbers. Maurice blends in his underated harmonies and demonstates his solo abilities. Sadly, we will never again experience his beautiful talent.
If you like the Bee Gees, you will not be disappointed. There are many live audio recordings of the Gibbs that are worth listening to. Sadly there are few good visual performances available due to the lack of technology in the past. This is the best quality visual record of the Gibbs that you can get of the brothers in their prime. A definite must see for any Bee Gee fan.

Summary: Wonderful concert - Juliet's a lucky girl
Review: The "One for All" concert is even more fun than "One Night Only" because the (younger)Bee Gees performed new songs such as "Juliet," "Giving up the Ghost," and other songs from the "One" CD and Robin's solo CD "How old are you?" The Bee Gees were animated, relaxed, and very soulful. The band rocked. I agree with one fan that Barry hogged the camera; I wanted more Maurice and Robin. Robin was in excellent voice -- his vibrato was under control and he just poured out pure tones. "Juliet" and "I Started a Joke" were highlights of the show, and Robin deservedly earned his ovation. Maurice finally got to display his harmonic skills with Barry on "Island in the Stream." Loved the visuals and harmonies on "You win again," a number One hit in Europe but hardly heard of in the US. If anyone wants to know what the big deal was about the Brothers Gibb, head for the "One for All" DVD to see them in their prime.

Summary: A good example of the professionalism of a Bee Gees concert
Review: The Bee Gees have been performing together since the mid-sixties, and it shows with their performance professionalism and obvious brotherly closeness in this live video. Sometimes amusing, always top class, the music on the video spans their whole career and even non-fans will recognize many of the songs. I thoroughly enjoyed the video and have no hesitation in recommending it to other lovers of fine music.

Summary: Go For It!
Review: The Dolby stereo on this disc is far below the quality of their "One Night Only" DVD - far below the quality of most of my old VHS concerts for that matter. Sad that the Brothers Gibb let this one slip through. Even with substandard audio, it's a great concert. The Bee Gees are in top form here and anyone who likes the Bee Gees will truly enjoy the performance.

Summary: The not so good live concert !
Review: The title of this DVD is half true, yes, most of the songs are very well qualified as the very best of Bee Gees, unfortunately, the truth ends here, the audio of the dis makes any karaoke sounds real music to the ears, the lighting, camera angles are bearable at best. As their fans for years, it doesn't stop me buying the real deal "One night only" next.

Summary: A Bee Gees Fix!
Review: This concert is a joy. All three brothers are a delight, with Robin at his best. Music is fabulous, the energy electric, and the men fascinating. This is a two-part set in VHS. The only disappointment is with Part II (the last part of the concert). There are a few songs, the finale, then 3/4 of annoying static and blank tape. The DVD version should eliminate the problem. Recommended for all Bee Gees fans, or those wondering why the Bee Gees have such universal appeal!

Summary: AMAZING!
Review: This DVD concert is truly amazing! The Bee Gees are in excellent form here. Harmonies crisp and lush as always, are even better in this format.All the classics are on this DVD plus several cuts from the album it promotes - ONE. This is one of their best albums, taking us back just a bit to their earlier R&B roots, but updated with even greater sophistication and polish. Their gift is truly an annointed ability to channel pure love, healing and magic. Don't miss this phenomenal performance!

Summary: Spicks and Specks
Review: This DVD is great! I love it because it has the song "Spicks and Specks" They don't play that song on any of the other DVD's they have produced. The music quality is good. The DVD quality is of lesser quality than their others but it is still a great DVD! To me if you like the Bee Gee's you can't go wrong with this one.
