1.0 out of 5 stars Bootleg with poor quality - Amazon shouldn't sell it, September 17, 2006

Poor audio quality, no-name publisher, even gaps inside songs when whoever taped this hit the pause button by mistake. Don't buy it.

5.0 out of 5 stars Not that bad...., November 10, 2006

This review is from: Eric Clapton - After Midnight Live (DVD)

This is pretty good, although there is some tape hiss in the audio, it is clearly mastered from a VHS tape. Kind of unfortunate, but nonetheless, this is the only official release of Clapton with Knopfler, and for that reason alone it is essential. Lots of sweet guitar solos by both Clapton and Knopfler. Knopfler blows E.C. away on "Badge" and does some great acoustic solos behind Nathan East on the blind faith tune. Alan Clark plays a killer synth solo on Cocaine, and plays the piano part of Layla perfectly.

Pick this one up, but don't have high expecatations. I didn't...and I was pleasantly surprised. This is not the best quality, but it is still a good performance and a great release.

An odd thing about this concert, is Eric had his drummer off to the side, so Ferrone doesn't come into view much unless it's a close up on him.

I think this dvd benefits from lower end sound systems. If you try to watch it on great equipment, you'll probably be disappointed.

1.0 out of 5 stars Not even a good bootleg, March 11, 2007

If you're going to rip-off an artist by putting the artist's work out there without paying him, at least have the good manners to take some time to make the rip-off sound decent. Any teen-ager with a free audio editing program could have made this listenable in about 45 minutes.

No, this is a straight line recording off of a high generation VHS tape. Sonic garbage.

OK, bootleggers are a fact of life, I guess, it's just this one is lazy.

And shame on Amazon for selling bootlegs. I'd not have thought they'd support ripping off artists (no one on the CD is making a penny on it, so you know).
