Dionne is still Dionne!!!,
By USA "georich2003" (USA) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Dionne Warwick - Live (DVD)
I just received my copy of this DVD. I must say that Dionne's voice is not what it used to be but is more than I expected!! There are times during this concert when I have to realize that I am a fan and must understand that she has been performing for close to 5 decades!! So, the toll of smoking and other things are quiet evident! But, then, I listen to when she is "warmed up" and I don't quiet miss the vocal range that she once had cuz she is what we call a 'true preformer'. She knows how to caress a note, adjust her tone to hit the note and make the range etc. I found myself concentrating on her technique (after watching the DVD for the 4th time tonight) and forgeting about the wonderful music that she has supplied the public with for ages!!!This DVD covers a live concert in 2005, in the UK and musically, she covers LOTS of ground here. As a Dionne fan, I have purchased ALL of her catalog of music, (the Scepter, the Warner, the Arista and now Concord Years) and I'm only 37....LOLOLOLOL!!! She still has that 'presences' that lots of performers only try to recreate. Its a small venue where she is performing (maybe 2000 people) Her band sounds very good and takes Dionne's direction well. The highlight for this fan is hear "non-Dionne" songs like Arthur's Theme, The Reason Why We Sing and Children, Go Where I Send Thee. Dionne is in her mid sixtites and still packin' them in!! I will see here in Brooklyn in April 2007. I'm so glad that this DVD exists! Purchase it and know that this is the woman who set a tone for Pop Music not that long ago. Then, go on youtube and search a few soild gold performances and know that you have just viewed one of the greatest that America had/has to offer ")

Divinely Dionne,

This review is from: Dionne Warwick - Live (DVD)
I waited for this video to become available in a U.S. format and the wait was more than worth it. I have followed this lady's career for almost forty years and she just gets better like fine wine. Whatever she "may" have lost in range she has beautifully managed with finesse and nuance. There is wisdom, passion and life experience in each song, it is beautiful. Her comments are brief but delightful. She looks wonderful and in customary Dionne fashion her performance is not bright and flashy diamonds but perfect incomparable pearls. Every note is purposeful and I know that she is singing just to me. If you like Dionne even a little bit this treasure belongs in your collection. I watch it over and over again.

As always, Dionne doesn't disappoint. Even in these latter years of her career, she still has the presence, style and voice that is only hers. One can never go wrong with a Dionne song no matter whose done it before. She is truly a gem and a class act.
