2.0 out of 5 stars Just not the same, October 4, 2003

This review is from: Best of Sessions at West 54th, Vol. 2 (DVD)

This dvd fails to capture the intensity and fun of the others in the series. Although there are a few acts that do rise above the mediocrity, over all this is just not a good purchase. If you are desperate for some live music, yu would be best served looking elsewhere. The afro-cuban allstars and ozomatli ARE excellent here - and that crazy imani coppola is a high point, but overall this is not a step forward for the series. Spend elsewhere.

5.0 out of 5 stars Step Inside THIS House and Enjoy the Music, March 26, 2001

This review is from: Best of Sessions at West 54th, Vol. 2 (DVD)

The Sessions DVDs are a great way to enjoy an eclectic group of performers. Where else can you have Neil Finn, Lyle Lovett and the Kronos Quartet. Like Vol. 1, Vol. 2 showcases artists you know and some you may not be acquainted with. Don't forget to check out the special features. David Byrne's intros and interviews are available and good for subsequent viewings when you want to explore individual songs and artists more. This DVD also includes Costello and Bacharach performing "Painted from Memory." Come on Sony, my VHS of this incredible Sessions session is wearing out. Get that DVD out there!

2.0 out of 5 stars Could have been better, January 17, 2001

This review is from: Best of Sessions at West 54th, Vol. 2 (DVD)

It lacks a general overall theme, and seems to be a mismatched conglomerate of different artist not always at their best. It is worth watching once, but I would not recommend purchasing it.
