DVD Reviews of Eagles: Farewell 1 Tour - Live From Melbourne [HD DVD]

DVD Review: Why I Am An Eagle's Fan
Summary: 5 Stars

The DVD helped bring back some wonderful sounds that I grew up with. I would highly recommend it to all those who love their music and presence of stage.....and to anyone else who appreciates great music.

DVD Review: THE EAGLES, "GREAT"
Summary: 5 Stars

This is as good as it gets. It shows the progression of a great band. One of the best concert recordings I have ever seen. It has all the energy, all the magic of a live performance. They have taken all their tunes and and performed at new level, the arrangements are amazing. This is a must have for any Eagles fan.
I just wish they had a CD version I could listen to in the car.....

DVD Review: Eagles Farewell Tour - Buy It!
Summary: 5 Stars

If you are an avid Eagles fan like I am, this is a must buy for your home entertainment needs. Compared with most live concert DVD's, this DVD is masterfully recorded from the audio to the video. If you are a collector, this is a must buy for the money. 5-stars and well worth it.

DVD Review: Simply a must have
Summary: 5 Stars

I was very very happy with this dvd, I just wish they had it on blu ray. I love the fact that they really pack a lot of music in on this 2 dvd set and extras as well. A must have for any eagles fan!!!

DVD Review: Wow. America's Greatest.
Summary: 5 Stars

The Eagles in concert live or on a DVD are simply amazing. The sounds of Don Henley and Glenn Frey are so distinctive and with the amzing guitar leadership of funny guy Joe Walsh and a very talented Steuart Smith makes this a very special album. And let us not forget Timothy B. Schmit on bass. Phenomenal.

Description of Eagles: Farewell 1 Tour - Live From Melbourne [HD DVD]

Without doubt the Eagles are one of the all-time biggest acts in popular music since the dawn of the rock'n'roll era. The band's roots go back to their role as defining artists in the phenomenally popular Southern California rock scene of the '70s a decade in which they delivered four consecutive #1 albums. Their momentous 2004 farewell tour filled stadiums around the world and this 2-DVD set captures one of the most stellar events from that now-historic global sweep.Track Listings:Long RunNew Kid in TownWasted TimePeaceful Easy FeelingI Can't Tell You WhyOne of These NightsOne Day At A Time (New Track)Lyin' EyesBoys of SummerIn The CityAlready GoneTequila SunriseLove Will Keep Us AliveNo More Cloudy Days (New Track)Hole In the WorldTake It To the LimitYou Belong to the CityWalk AwaySunset GrillLife's Been GoodDirty LaundryFunk #49Heartache TonightLife in the Fast LaneHotel CaliforniaRocky Mountain WayAll She Wants To Do Is DanceTake It EasyDesperadoFormat: DVD MOVIE Genre:?MUSIC DVD/CONCERTS UPC:?603497216727 Manufacturer No:?972167-2

Thirty songs, spread out over two discs and well over two and a half hours, with fine performances, great sound, and good visual direction: it's all here on Farewell 1 Tour, a documentary of the Eagles' 2004 concert in Melbourne, Australia. At one point, the veteran band seemed unlikely to even make it to the new millennium, but here they are, mostly intact, with a string of hits dating back more than three decades. The majority of them are performed here, from the earliest ("Take It Easy," "Desperado," "Peaceful Easy Feeling") through "Hotel California" and "Life in the Fast Lane" and right up to "Love Will Keep Us Alive" (from Hell Freezes Over, their most recent recording with new material on it); there are also hits from Glenn Frey, Don Henley, and Joe Walsh's solo careers, and a few new songs as well, including Walsh's "One Day at a Time" (an earnest ode to his new-found sobriety) and "Hole in the World," Frey and Henley's moving, almost gospel-tinged reaction to the events of 9/11/01. Guitarist Don Felder, who split acrimoniously with the band in 2001, isn't much missed, as replacement Steuart Smith plays the parts just as Felder did--i.e., pretty much exactly as they were recorded (indeed, pristine recreations of the studio versions of their songs has always been a hallmark of the Eagles' live shows). As for the somewhat cheeky title, well, there's always been a certain smugness to the Eagles' sense of humor, and it's no different this time, as Frey doesn't even pretend that there won't be a Farewell 2 Tour in the future. And why not? These are good songs, played beautifully by the quartet (plus supplemental musicians) to audiences that love them. Bonus material is limited to perfunctory interviews with the band. --Sam Graham
