My favorite concert

This concert DVD is my favorite. The 5.1 sound and the picture quality is great, there are top musicians are and it has many great old and new James Taylor songs. The audience is polite and the music is sweet - this is not a rock concert. If you like James Taylor, this concert DVD is a must-have!

Lots Of Great Songs Presented Well, But.....

James Taylor performs almost two hours worth of songs at a semi-famous theater in New York City in the late '90s.

These are mostly great songs, about every hit song he ever had and more, and his voice is in fine form. The only problems I found was that it got monotonous after awhile. Although likable, Taylor is not exactly an animated performer, nor are his shows. After a half dozen or so tunes they all start sounding similar.

This is better just played as background music while you are doing something else. In other words, it's better served as a CD rather than a DVD. But it's an excellent concert as Taylor and his band perform beautifully.
