Excellent
Jun 14 2009
Format:DVD
This is an excellent DVD from Steve Winwood. Critics should be smart a bit. O.K. you tell me this is not good enough and you recommend that we do not purchase it. Then tell me which one is good that I can buy. You say it is short, that means you liked it. Is this the reason a fan should not buy it. Firstly, there are not too many Winwood DVDs available. Secondly, if you are a fan, you want to watch a good performance. This is one of them. Sound quality is good, video angles are excellent, and video stays on the same person long enough so that your eyes do not get tired. Winwood sings and plays well. People who play with him are excellent. If you like Winwood, you already have this. If you did not purchase it yet for any reason, I can say I enjoyed it and watched it several times and will watch it any time again and again. I am just appalled with someone who appreciates Winwood giving this DVD a mere two stars.

Trust me, if you're a Steve Winwood fan...
Jun 8 2005
Format:DVD
...you'll want this just for the incredible opener CAN'T FIND MY WAY HOME. I have a copy of this show and it's wonderful. It's beautiful. It's Steve Winwood and that tells anyone who knows anything about great rock music all they need to know.
Other highlights include DEAR MR. FANTASY, LOW SPARK, BACK IN THE HIGH LIFE, and DIFFERENT LIGHT from the last album, "About Time"...tho' to be honest, this is a show full of highlights.
One of the greatest voices in rock, if not the greatest, and a master of the Hammond organ and quite the guitar player, Winwood is one of those artists who personifies quality musicianship and a level of professionalism few other artists match.
I'm a big, big fan...if you can't tell.

PLEASE! Release the Entire Show!
Sep 5 2005
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
What a stellar performance! It's ridiculous and a shame the entire performance was not released for this DVD. I'm happy they included 3 bonus tracks, but that's only 11 of the 19 songs performed that night. I attended the taping for this show, and it was like all previous reviewers have said, an incredible performance and it needs to be released in its entirety.
The original set list for the more than 2 hour show was...
1. Pearly Queen
2. Different Light
3. Cigano (For The Gypsies)
4. Can't Find My Way Home
5. Walking On
6. 40,000 Headmen
7. Empty Pages
8. Final Hour
9. Silvia
10. Rainmaker
11. Bully
12. Glad/Freedom Rider
13. Who Knows What Tomorrow May Bring
14. Higher Love
15. Back In The High Life Again
16. Dear Mr. Fantasy
17. The Low Spark Of High Heeled Boys
18. Why Can't We Live Together?
19. Gimme' Some Lovin'
Except for taking a few of quick breaks to allow the cameramen to swap recording tapes, there should be little editing that needs to take place. Do us all a favor and release the entire show!

Highlife is short but sweet!
Oct 22 2005
Format:DVD|Amazon Verified Purchase
This DVD does everything right, the sound and video feed are perfect. Great song selection. Steve still has an aswesome voice, he hits all high notes still. His guitar playing is very enjoyable. the only thing I can fault This DVD for is it's short length, just about half of the concert is here. I watched on PBS, before I bought this dvd, and the song list was about twice as long as this. I really wish they would have included the whole show, it's not like DVD'S don't have the capacity. So minus 1 star for trimming it too much.
