Don't Listen to the Gregory Costa review !!!, May 18 2004
This review is from: Eric Clapton - 24 Nights: Live At The Royal Albert Hall (DVD)
I am a professional entertainer, guitarist and recording engineer since the mid 1960's. I could not stand by and let somebody with NO recording expertise bash this recording. He says, "No choice in sound selection", No surround sound?". That's right Greg ! There is NO WAY to make a quality surround sound recording if it wasn't recorded that way originally. Stereo recordings are generally superior after many years of serious development, and don't rely on " sonic gemicks" and " audio trickery". Most of the people have given Eric's DVD a good recomendation for good reason. BUY IT ! Be careful who you listen to. Thanks, DKW

Awesome!!!!!!!!, April 23 2004
This review is from: Eric Clapton - 24 Nights: Live At The Royal Albert Hall (DVD)
One of the best concerts, I have ever seen! It's Clapton at his best. Quality is good, considering it's from early 90's. Wish I was there live, but this is next best thing.

Change of heart on this one... UPDATED 7-02-04, Jan 20 2004
This review is from: Eric Clapton - 24 Nights: Live At The Royal Albert Hall (DVD)
Well, I'm not going say "24 Nights" is my favorite dvd by EC... However, upon further reflection of this compilation, I feel as though my previous review was a little unfair. I had stated in it that I was not happy with the fact that the audio was not remixed into DTS or Dolby Digital. I concede that perhaps I am not as knowledgeable as others who may have worked in the recording field. But, if someone would be kind enough to explain to me how concerts originally recorded in 2-channel stereo, such as "Roy Orbison's Black & White Night", can be remixed into the aforementioned formats and sound spectacular, I'd surely be interested in knowing. The concert material itself is pretty good though. If Mr. Clapton and his label, Warner / Reprise ever find it in their hearts to do so, I would love to see one night from each of the different band arrangements released on dvd. (Especially the orchestra and blues nights) Anyway, if you want to experience Clapton's versatality, pick up this release. OK, Mr. Widlake, you can update your review now.
