While I'm not a huge Whitesnake fan, that new live recording is, if nothing else, a solid clinic on badass rock guitar. Doug Aldrich & Reb Beach are both pretty amazing players (and I can say first hand that Aldrich is an equally great guy in person).

I always feel a little sad for Adrian Vandenberg. He gets hired just as the band's '87 commercial breakthrough is prepped for release & Coverdale fires the rest of the band (and manages to record 1 guitar solo for said record), writes/co-writes the next album, then gets to sit back & watch Steve Vai record all his parts while on the mend from a hand injury. Then, Coverdale disbands Whitesnake (for a while) after that tour. I'm sure he at least got paid.

I believe Doug Aldrich played with Dio, I recognize him from the Holy Diver – Live bluray.

I wan't a big Whitesnake fan back in the day but I really liked a few of their songs on the latest CD "Forevermore".

I never like Whitesnake at all. Led Zeppelin ripoff band as far as I was concerned. Imagine my surprise when Jimmy Page cut an album with David Coverdale. Can't believe I bought the CD!!! What the hell was I thinking???

Mi - not a Whitesnake fan either. I really struggled through their last DVD.

Get All That You Deserve by Steven Wilson. An amazing dvd concert that is dark,beautiful,complex and has some of the best musicians I have ever heard.This might not be for everyone but if you give it a chance it will turn your head around.

Interesting, never heard of him.

Porcupine Tree?

Yes, he is in Porcupine Tree but his own work is brilliant.The raven that refused To sing is his latest CD.

Oh well, Chicago in Chicago (Bluray) just showed up.

Heard that the old Earth Wind & Fire with Chicago BR is top 10 pq/aq. Is this true? Looking to get some ref quality br, such as that eagles one that surely is.

I have the dvd of the Chicago/earth wind And fire concert and its excellent.One that I can recommend is Procol Harum Live At Union Chapel.Pq/Aq is excellent,in fact the Aq is one of best i have ever heard,especially the bass and drums.

^ Thanks for the heads up, bought a few BR and they are don't like them as much as my best dvds, but has a lot to do with reviewer tilt. I don't like liverworst but can appreciate the sausage maker's craft, up to a point

I got the Chicago / EWF DVD from my local library one day. The audio is top quality for sure.

David Foster's "Hit Man" is equal to Eagles Farewell Tour in AQ....a little better even.

This is an absolutely excellent documentary ..

Yes, it is. I saw it a few weeks back on Showtime, via Dish Hopper. I sent it up to my external HD. Good stuff!!!

"Love for Levon"

Anyone try this one on Blu yet? The reviews elsewhere seem mixed. I trust you guys the most

I want to like this one. I'm sure the content is fine. I'm worried about the audio quality and don't need another audio-turd in my collection.

i have been holding off on this one because some of the bad reviews on Amazon of the audio quality.
Plus from what I've read there is no HD audio on the Bluray, I may pass on this one until I read some positive feedback on the audio.

But mgkdragn.....I assume by your forum avatar that you would hate the f**king Eagles, man.

The Dude has mellowed and changed over the years ..

So The Dude no longer abides?

FAIL!

Once you dislike them you can never go back, the Dude still hates the Eagles .

I'm watching Journey Live in Houston 1981 DVD.

My subwoofer is doing nothing. The light is not on. Same in PCM or Dolby 5.1. My 5308 indicates DTS NEO 6 Music.

Is something set up wrong or what?

Thanks

Is it plugged in, the sub, that is....

Lol. I never did understand why the Coens wrote The Dude in such a way that he hates them. I mean, he loves CCR; I don't understand why he would hate the Eagles. They seem to be his speed. Oh well. The Dude abides.

Yes. It works great with TV, especially some of the new commercials.

I ran Audyssee and reset the crossovers to 100. At least the light comes on now.

Cheers.

On the Love For Levon Blu ray don't let the bad reviews disuade you from getting it it's nowhere near as bad as some would lead you to believe.....it's actually quite good imho.

Thanks Kevin! I'll give it a try then.
