I must admit that the DVD has interesting performances on it. Unfortunately, if you have a reasonably good stereo, you will quickly notice the very uneven sound quality of the performances. On some performances the vocals sound just fine, while the backing instruments sound muted and muffled; on other performances the opposite occurs; in a few cases (e.g., Chris Issac) the sound is quite good. I do not know if the original recordings are bad or if the engineering of the DVD is quite poor, but be forewarned: the sound quality of this DVD is quite uneven. I own remastered jazz CDs, originally recorded more than 40 years ago, that sound better than some or the performances on this DVD.

I've bought and returned this DVD twice now because the sound on some of the videos is entirely missing. When I first bought the DVD and had a problem I thought I just got a bad DVD - so I exchanged it for another one and had the same problem. Even in the places where the sound is intact, it is of poor quality. The image itself is also not that good

I quote the ad copy..."DVD Features:
Songs Include: Before You Accuse Me (Eric Clapton), When The Night Comes (Joe Cocker), Leaving Las Vegas (Sheryl Crow), Pride And Joy/Life Without You (Stevie Ray Vaughan)"
"Life Without You" which is all I wanted, is not on the disk I received.

Very Amazing version of some great artist in their acoustic side. I have this on VHS and I think it's great! Very beautiful are the Stevie Ray Vaughan tracks. This is two of the four songs that SRV played at MTV Unplugged (Rude Mood, Pride & Joy, Testify, Life Without You). Life Without You is the only know acoustic version during all his carrer. If you like the acoustic/unplugged sound this is your DVD!

5 stars just for stevie...MTV must publish SRV unplugged with all of the songs that he performed and the interview must of been longer...PLEASE!!

A wonderful collection of songs, Small Town sounds like it should, Stevie Ray Vaughan is absolutely amazing! An absolute must for any hi-fi nut! Its very well recorded for VHS and soundsd great through the stereo!

I TRULY LOVED THIS FLIM I CANT WAIT TO SEE ANOTHER THIS WAS FUNNY YET SAD AT TIMES MTV KEEP IT COMING!!!!

If you thought that you would be getting a music video like you would be seeing on MTV, think again. This is a cheap taping of the artist playing in a studio.
