4.0 out of 5 stars Great DVD - But A Suggestion for Some, April 14 2004

By A Customer

This review is from: Phil Collins - Serious Hits....Live! (2DVD) (DVD)

Phile Collins is one of the all-time greats, but people can we be realistic for a moment? Anyone who thinks a Phil Collins' concert is the best they have ever seen really need to get out and watch some live music and not in arenas and stadiums.

This review is from: Phil Collins - Serious Hits....Live! (2DVD) (DVD)

Giving the full concert, these DVDs offer plenty of evidence for why Phil Collins must be considered one of the greatest entertainers and performers of the 80's and 90's. No less than 25 songs a featured in the set, hits as well as favorites from his new album, and even though there are a few missers and missings, this should offer anyone plenty of 80's nostalgia.

The performance is excellent without being Phil's best. I would at anytime recommand the Live And Loose In Paris DVD instead of this one - which is in fact probably his best live performance ever - but this doesn't meen that this concert isn't thoroughly enjoyable. In fact the performance of Take Me Home alone might be worth the purchase of the whole set, if you're into Phil's music - this traci brings new meening to the terms a-m-a-z-i-n-g and p-e-r-f-e-c-t. Must-see, must-hear, must-own. Other highlights include a wonderful versions of Do You Remember?, Doesn't Anybody Stay Together Anymore? and A Groovy Kind Of Love. Also, seing the 16.000 people of the crowd waving their hands in unison to the beat of Two Hearts is very impressing.

There are some drawbacks on this DVD. First of all, the sound is a bit sharp and metallic, even though this isn't as bad as on the CD release. On the visual side, the band is wearing some hideous dresses. Yes, I know, this is unimportant for the concert, but singer (?) Fred White is wearing a costume so lacking anything remote to good taste that I have to turn away from the screen everytime he's on (furthermore, he sounds most of all like a whorse crow). Also, the horn section Phil brought with him on this tour is not nearly as good as the one he used on the Dance Into The Light tour, as featured on the 1997 Live And Loose In Paris.

Finally, a note on the set-list. Pretty much all the hits are plyed here, but it's a pitty that songs like I Wish It Would Raing Down and Find A Way To My Heart were removed from the setlist at this part of the tour. Instead a pointless piese like Saturday Night And Sunday Morning was played. Also one might miss older favorites like I Don't Care Anymore, It Don't Matter To Me and You Know What I Meen - but then, the line would have to be drawn somewhere, and more than 2 hours of music is pretty impressive.

Finally on dvd, this concert is Phil at his best. Although I prefer Genesis over his solo stuff, this show is really amazing and full of energy. Read more
