Editorial Reviews

Amazon.com

Live in Barcelona captures the hectic energy of Elton John's 1992 world tour but drops several of the highlights, including a rare live performance of his classic album cut "All the Girls Love Alice." Still, at two hours, there's enough to sate both hard-core and casual fans, especially since much of the best material remains: the emotional opening, "Don't Let the Sun Go Down on Me"; poignant versions of "The One" and "The Last Song"; and the showstopping cover of Queen's final anthem, "The Show Must Go On" (Queen's vocalist Freddie Mercury had died only a few months before the tour began).

Visually, this was also an historic show: Gianni Versace designed the stage set and Elton's costumes. While not obvious to the viewer, Versace's contribution gets some play in the accompanying 50-minute documentary about John's The One album, videos, and subsequent tour; it includes interviews with Elton, lyricist Bernie Taupin, guitarist Davey Johnstone, and Versace himself, along with rare rehearsal footage. --Kevin Filipski



From the Back Cover

Recorded in Barcelona on July 21st, 1992, this was Elton John's first live concert video for six years. The two hour show, with staging, costumes, and lighting designed by Gianni Versace, combines the excitement of one of the world's greatest performers with the intimacy of some of the world's best-loved songs. Before the end of the tour in the summer of 1993 following some 130 concerts he had entertained over three million people around the world and perpetuated a career that already spans three decades.

Also includes a 52-minute documentary about the 1992 world tour. It features interviews with Elton John, co-writer Bernie Taupin, members of the band, and many of the key people involved in staging the shows, including the designer of the sets and the costumes, the late Gianni Versace.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Long Overdue Release Of A Great Elton Concert On DVD, March 22, 2003
By Mike King "Michael A. King" (Taunton, MA United States) - See all my reviews
(TOP 1000 REVIEWER)   
First of all, I would like to set the record straight. Every song from the "Elton John: Live World Tour 1992" VHS video is included, in the same running order, in the "Elton John: Live In Barcelona" DVD. In addition, the picture and sound quality are superb. Elton had taken some time off from his arduous touring schedule and, more importantly, had kicked his alcohol and drug habits. He's in top physical form, and his singing and piano playing are stronger than they had been in years. In addition, he's touring to support his then recent album release, "The One." That album marked a return to form for the songwriting partnership of Elton John and Bernie Taupin.

Elton begins the concert with the superb ballad "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me," quickly following that with a rocking version of "I'm Still Standing." A welcome surprise is the outstanding song "Burn Down The Mission" from his early years. Songs from "The One" include the title cut, "Simple Life" and his moving ballad about aids, "The Last Song." Freddie Mercury had recently died of aids and, as a tribute to him, Elton sings a powerful version of Queen's "The Show Must Go On." A concert highlight is when each of his three backup singers perform powerful solos on "Sad Songs Say So Much." The concert closes on an unusual note, with Elton combining the instrumental "Song For Guy" with his classic "Your Song" for a unique medley.

What really makes this DVD worth owning is the inclusion of a nearly one hour documentary about Elton's 1992 world tour, which was not included in the previous VHS version. In addition to interviews with Elton, Bernie Taupin and Davey Johnstone, it includes portions of several concept videos, and a complete live version of "Don't Let The Sun Go Down On Me" from his first 1992 show in Oslo. I urge all Elton John fans to upgrade their VHS version of this concert with this superb DVD release.

5.0 out of 5 stars A Spectacular Concert, July 18, 2004
By Anthony Nasti "Music Maniac" (Staten island New York) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
1992 when Elton finally overcame his personal addictions and reemerged as one of the world's consumate showmen. Touring to promote his (then) new album "The One", he stopped over in Barcelona for a filmed concert. The result was this amazing live dvd that every music fans must have.

This truly is one of the best shows he ever did. He sounds alive and well and he is clearly enjoying himself more than he head in years. The highlights on this disc include "Philadelphia Freedom", "Burn Down The Mission", "Tiny Dancer", "Mona Lisas And Mad Hatters Parts 1 & 2" and "Funeral For A Friend"/Love Lies Bleeding". He also does a few songs he rarely ever takes a stab at in concert. "Blue Avenue" is a track from 1989's "Sleeping With The Past" that is hardly heard. Here, he does a flawless rendition that beats the albukm version by a long shot. Also, there's the slightly eerie instrumental "Song For Guy", done in a medley with "Your Song".

Also included is a 52 - minute documentary with interviews conducted with Elton, Bernie Taupin and Giannie Versaci, to name a few. Overall a great live dvd that has Elton in top form.

4.0 out of 5 stars Better than Madison Gardens concert, April 20, 2004
This DVD relates to a concert filmed in 1993 to promote EJ's then new album "The One". Elton's voice was much better compared to the 2000 Concert in Madison Square Gardens DVD. The tracklist is more interesting too as he has thrown is some rarities and some album tracks - whereas the 2002 Madison Square Gardens DVD is a Greatest Hits show. The other highlight of this concert is that EJ sings all his songs. On the Madison Square Gardens concert 2000 he has alot of guests on stage helping out. Ok, that's not such a bad thing, but when you go to see EJ, you want to see and hear EJ.

This DVD also contains an hour documentary on EJ which is reason enough to buy the DVD. It's a great documentary and contains some rare footage too, as well as film clips from yesteryear which I haven't seen in a long time.

The DVD also boast a nice clear image unlike the Madison Square Gardens concert (very blurry).

My review is simply to help you decide which one to buy. Or you could just buy them both.
