Customer Reviews
Brilliant & Worth Every Penny! (note: this review contains the corrected track listing)
hello to anyone reading this! I am a old-school, die-hard Elton fan; my first concert ever was the legendary Elton John show at Madison Square Garden on November 28, 1974 - Elton's special guest that night was John Lennon (in what turned out to be Lennon's final-ever performance on a live concert stage). In the 30+ years since then, I've seen Elton at MSG many many many times - and I was there on 03/25/07 when Elton celebrated his 60th birthday. I'm proud to be writing the first Amazon review of this amazing DVD/CD set. For hard-core fans like me, seeing him play old rarely-performed album tracks like "High Flying Bird", "Where To Now, St. Peter?", "Ballad of A Well Known Gun" and "Hercules" was a thrill and a treat. My friends and I were seriously hoping that the ENTIRE 03/25/07 concert would be released on DVD. Well, this box set contains the ENTIRE 03/25/07 concert ... and more! The whole thing is completely butt-kicking and if you're a fan of the man and his music then this is a must-have box set.
Here's the complete, correct listing of everything contained on all 3 discs:
One Word - Fantastic!
This exclusive package is absolutely brilliant. Not only will you have a ball watching Elton simply on fire at his 60th, the amazing extras make this package far superior to other Elton DVD's. You simply must see someone saved my life tonight at the Edinburgh Playhouse Theatre in which elton gives a stunning highly emotional version of the song. And also a touching rare version of We all fall in love sometimes/ Curtains (MSG, 2005) dedicated to Bernie.
The sound quality of the concert is superb and you will have a blast powering up the home theatre! The HD camerawork is great, so many angles, so many close-ups of Elton's legendary piano work and the detail is extraordinary you can't get any closer, even if you were there on the night. The band was in great spirits for this show and what a set-list!! So many rare gems.
Don't forget to look out for all the VIP's and celebrities throughout the show. Also, the lighting and visuals were incredible, ultra vegas style.
Enjoy!, I did...
December 2007 Review
This DVD has to rate among My favorite EJ concerts! It was wonderful to hear something other than just His
"mega-hits" And I swear that If I could have written His set list Myself, I wouldn't have changed a song !!
The sound and beauty of this concert has to be seen on a big screen and heard on a good stereo system, turn it up and enjoy !!!
