Excellent show by G. Misthos 5 Stars
August 03, 2009
This is an excellent show. What I especially like about it is that most of the songs done by the original artists are better than the original recordings. Taste of Honey in particular are great. You may have to look hard, but there is a second, Part 2 Dvd of this that is almost as good.

A tip to vastly improve the audio quality... by Whodathotit (Sunnyvale, CA USA)  4 Stars
August 01, 2009
Several people mentioned they felt the audio quality is not so great. Actually, the audio quality is very, very good. The problem is, the center channel volume was recorded waaaay too low, causing the vocals to sort of get lost in the side channel ambience. If you listen to this DVD through a multi-channel surround sound system, simply use your remote to boost only the center channel volume by 7-10 dB, and the sound stage balance is brought back into perfect harmony. It is then that you realize that the overall audio quality was not the problem. Stereo-only listeners, however, will indeed be let down by the audio. The only downside to boosting the center volume comes between songs, when the announcers are eardrum-shatteringly loud, causing one to have to toggle the volume up and down throughout the DVD. But even that should not cause one to miss this terrific performance!

| Remember the '70s - Greatest Hits Live
Starring: Various Artists
Long before Kenny Rogers achieved pop and country superstardom, he was a member of the late-’60s pop group The First Edition, which had five Top 40 hits, including "Ruby, Don’t Take Your Love To Town" and "Just Dropped In (To See What Condition My Condition Was In)." This success led to the airing of a November 1970 television special, Rollin’ On The River, which starred the band. The response was so overwhelming that CBS turned it into a weekly music/variety show. From 1971 to 1973,...
