Summary: Throw it out
Review: Don't buy this...don't you see that "artists" like Gloria Estefan abandoned their love of music for a love of money long ago?

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Outstanding
Review: Gloria's greatest live video. I have seen the rest, but this one is very special. The musicans in the M.S.M. are amazing, if you love percussion?, this will knock you off your feet. Gloria sings great & there is a wonderful on stage projection slide show of her family for the song 'Along came you'. Jon Secada appears on 'I see your smile,' 'Words get in the way,' and 'Can't stay away from you.'

Buy it, you will never regreat it!!!

Summary: A sizzling concert
Review: I had known about this DVD for some time. I had resisted buying it for two reasons. One reason was the lack of 5.1 sound. The other was that I expected a two hour concert would have some slow parts.

Well I finally caved in and bought it, largely because of the great reviews it received here.

To my surprise, I did not feel there was any lull in the concert. In fact, it moves along at a very nice pace.

I was particularly impressed with how Gloria turned up the tempo in the last half hour at the point most of us would have been exhausted.

My favorite part was her chit chat with the guy in row two who brought the binoculars.

As I was watching the concert I started thinking, "Great concert, too bad there is no 5.1". In a moment of wishful thinking I pressed the sound button on my DVD remote and toggled on 5.1 sound! I double checked the DVD case--no spec about there being any 5.1 but my disk (purchased March 2004) does have it. To activate the 5.1 you can press the menu button and then configure the audio options or can just toggle the sound button on the DVD remote.

How is the 5.1 sound? To be truthful, it is better than the 2.0 sound but not a whole lot better. It is certainly not as good as the 5.1 mix on her Atlantis or Que Siga La Tradicion DVDs. However I'm still very pleased to have it.

Summary: Fantastic!Iresistable to miss!.
Review: I have been her fan since 1988 and her music changes but her sincerity in singing her songs never seems to fade.This musical episode has been one of my favorite,been watching her dvd almost everyday.Gloria's maturity shows coz she sang her songs with more passion and guts(its not she has never been good even though she was recovering from flu that disrupted her voice for the show!)For her fans she full-heartedly performed and gains never-ending standing ovation.Miami Sound Machine was ever voted the best band in the world!Their sound is crystal but the D/DGTL has compressed much of the sound produced and the live ambience supressed to its minimum level.Overall the songs were well knitted with surprises....a musical journey not to be missed!

Rating: 5 stars
Summary: Encore Gloria!
Review: I was able to see her live in Toronto where I live about 18 days before this HBO special was taped, and I must say that it was better in Miami than here where I saw her.

She has a certain electricity about her when she is performing in front of a hometown crowd. This was my favorite Concert on Videotape, and I was overjoyed when It came out on the DVD Format. The scenes are so much more crisp and the Audio will blow you away! This is a must have purchase for all Gloria fans worldwide!!

Summary: el mejor
Review: I was so disappointed when I missed this concert when it came to San Diego. But this is about as good as being there. Simply put it's a must have for every Gloria fan! And even if you are not it's still a great concert. The sound on my old receiver and Bose bookshelf speakers is outstanding. Don't hesitate, go out and buy it!
