This is like getting 3 Great blues concerts for the price of 1. Each artist has his own stage performance along with a guest performance of Carlos Santana. The video is top notch as well as the Audio. Each of these blues artists are legions in there own right and there performances show why. The back up musicians for all 3 are extremely tight and are well practiced in their art. This recording holds the last live recorded video of Clarence "Gatemouth" Brown. A blues super hero who will be sorely missed. Santana is always in the back ground and never takes over the show, I liked that very much. His performances were stunning never the less, showing the various styles he can adapt to. If you are a blues fan or a Santana fan this will make you both. Don't deprive yourself, get this one!

Three complete concerts running for a total of 238 minutes.
Chose to watch 1, 2 or 3.
Carlos Santana plays a little with each group.
I'm glad I could sit down in front of the heater and view this magic, unlike the live audience who had to stand up.
Some awesome Saxaphone work.

just a great concert Parker and Brown at thier best and Buddy Guy showing his boundless creativity on his strat

Buy this if you are a fan of either; Bobby Parker, Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown or Buddy Guy. PQ & AQ are excellent. Three complete concerts. Carlos Santana appears towards the middle or end of each concert & mostly plays in the background. There are a few moments where Carlos really shines with awesome guitar work but these are few. Again Carlos is appearing to play in the background for these other Blues musicians. It is NOT the Carlos show. Rather the Bobby Parker, Clarence 'Gatemouth' Brown & Buddy Guy respective concerts with musical guests. Knowing that & if you love the blues, this is excellent.
