5.0 out of 5 stars Some fine pickin'...A great concert movie!!!, January 25, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Gather at the River - A Bluegrass Celebration (DVD)

I've owned this on laserdisc for a few years and am anxious to receive my DVD copy. This is a concert/documentary of a bluegrass festival in the early 90s. Great footage and quality sound by the likes of Peter Rowan & band, Doc Watson, Ralph Stanley & band, Del McCoury, and many many more. I'm glad to see more bluegrass available in this format. Pick this one up, you'll enjoy it!

4.0 out of 5 stars are you cracked?, December 27, 2003

By A Customer

This review is from: Gather at the River - A Bluegrass Celebration (DVD)

To the individual who gave this DVD one star and commented on the "individual I've never heard of sitting by a river [blah, blah, blah]..." If you've never heard of Peter Rowan, you have no business blasting the makers of this film. It's CLEAR you are no expert!

Yes, there is a great deal of talk and interviewing; this is not a concert film. It is; however, a must have for any bluegrass fanatic, especially those who have made the annual pilgramage to Kentucky for the IBMA's. Enjoy this one!

5.0 out of 5 stars Outstanding Bluegrass collection, December 14, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Gather at the River - A Bluegrass Celebration (DVD)

A well balanced collection of some of the best players. An excellent selection of music, and just enough talk to stitch the performance parts together. I listened to it nearly every day for a week after I received it... the segments by the young players and foreign players are especially entertaining. You come away thinking that Bluegrass is the music of the future... really good-time DVD.
