DVD Reviews of Earth Wind & Fire: In Concert

DVD Review: Great concert.
Summary: 4 Stars

Great concert. I bought this DVD at Wal-mat for $10. Get it while supplies last.

DVD Review: Lots of overdub but still is GREAT music
Summary: 4 Stars

I've watch this concert in VHS format while i was a little kid. I didn't notice back then that this concert had a lot of overdubs in it. It did dissapoint me a bit after I found out about the overdubs, but if you just ignore that a lot of the sound did not sync with the players movement, and just focusing on the sound of the MUSIC they produced, it's a GREAT piece of music anyway. I think one of the best they've made. And the live vibe is still there despite all the overdubs. So, appreciate the great music, and just enjoy the picture as a bonus...

DVD Review: A Classic Time Capsule
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is a fantastic time machine back to 1981, to the peak of the performing career of EWF. All original Band, original mixing and song layout. However, i think theres something to be said about the less-than-perfect sound quality. I attribute that to the fact that the recording is so old. Other than that, it doesnt bother me that much. THe DVD is fantastic, and wildly entertaining, as EWF's elaborate and flamboyant 1980's costumes light up the stage almost as much as the energy of Phillip Bailey, Ralph Johnson, Maurice White and Verdine White.

Ill recommend this DVD to anyone who wants to see EWF in their heyday, however if youre looking for truly dazzling musicianship, then probably stick to the later DVD's after they've hired Morris Pleasure as their musical director.

Overall, I can't give this DVD any sort of bad review though, because what you're buying here is more of a "look into the glorious past".

9 out of 10 stars.

DVD Review: They are the best...
Summary: 5 Stars

I am a woman in my forties, and EWF has always been my favorite band in the world. I used to go to all of their concerts whenever they were in the Detroit area. This particular concert tour I actually got to see twice. The first time in Detroit, and the next week we drove to Chicago so we could see it again. When I originally bought the video of this concert, I had it on VHS. When it came out on dvd, my daughter bought if for me for Christmas, along with the video of how the band got started, which I highly recommend also. The dvd is great, and if you have your television hooked up to amphs and speakers, you are really in store for a treat, you will really feel like you're right there. EWF, are still my favorite band to this day, there new cd is great as well.

DVD Review: Fake and Corny.
Summary: 1 Stars

First of all, let me preface my review by telling you that I am a huge EWF fan. But this video performance leaves me stone cold. Not only is the musical performance faked. But the performance itself looks staged.

It looks like a few actual live shots were added into the video along with the mostly staged shots. And as a result, the video (excluding "That's the way of the World") comes off rather insipid. That's a shame because EWF has always had a special bond with the audience. That's mostly missing here.

Also, the Darth Vader/Superman act looks rather silly. Although the laser holographic Eagle is fantastic. I remember attending the same tour and that opening was much longer and LOUDER than presented on the video.

EWF's videography contains far more exciting performances- like the "Live in Japan" DVD. A better option is the "Chicago/EWF Live at the Greek" DVD (no Maurice though). Or better still, get the SACD version of "Gratitude" and use your imagination.

Description of Earth Wind & Fire: In Concert

This briliant performance was recorded live at the Oakland Coliseum, December 30 and 31, 1981, with the sound, the hard-driving rhythms, the soothing melodies, the scintillating horns and special effects that have dazzled concertgoers around the world. Maurice White, the founder and driving force behind Earth, Wind & Fire has done it again: blending the energy, music and creativity that is Earth, Wind & Fire.
