Dwight Yoakam is a country star with multi-faceted talent, and he shines in these videos from 1990-94 as a songwriter, singer, musician, inimitable performer and actor; Yoakam wrote or co-wrote 8 of the 11 songs, and some of them include his unique floorshow moves in his seemingly glued-on jeans, and interspersed between a few of the songs are vignettes where he gets to use some of his acting skills.
Favorite tracks include the Elvis hit "Suspicious Minds", "It Only Hurts When I Cry", "A Thousand Miles From Nowhere", and "Pocket of a Clown"; all these songs have terrific melodies, good visuals, and are very entertaining. "Ain't That Lonely Yet" was a # 1 single and won a 1993 Best Country Vocal Performance Grammy.
The CDs with these songs are: Track # 1 is on the U.K. release "La Croix d'Amour" (1992), tracks 2-6 are on "If There was a Way" (1990), and tracks 7-11 are on "This Time" (1993).

Dear Dwight,

I have listened and watched this more than any other DVD. Please do another one of these so that we can have all of your video clips to watch.

A fan.

Well that sums it up. And if your not a Dwight fan watch it once or listen to one of his albums, you may squirm all the way through but afterwards you'll be hooked.

From the opening scenes to the final song,this has to be one of the most entertaining music dvds i havve seen.
How pleasing to have so many of his favourite songs on one disc!!
With the toe tapping "turn me up turn me down turn me loose" to the haunting "aint that lonely yet"the bouncy "pocket of a clown" & what about the fabulous "thousand miles from nowhere" the latter would have to be one of the best video clips ever,just a milesstone of dvd entertainment
In a word--brilliant!!

Dwight is one of the pure county singers left and this goes to show that. The songs are all orignal and have been relased previously, but to watch the videos is another thing. Very entertaining.

You'll watch this one more than once, I promise. Love it !!

Sexy, dramatic, talented Dwight Yoakam is featured throughout this DVD. He is a master songwriter, performer and actor. These videos are so creative and well made it's amazing. The guy has to be a genius, plus he oozes charisma! Highly recommend along with his earlier DVD, "Just Lookin' for a Hit"!!!

A great DVD to watch. A must for everyone to view. Just good Music

Anyone that likes Dwight will enjoy this video. He has got to be one of the all time great country singers. He can act too.

I wasn't thrilled with this DVD. Way to much goofy acting. I was looking for more of a concert DVD.
