5.0 out of 5 stars John Lennon Explodes at Madison Square Gardens!, December 24, 1999

This review is from: John Lennon: Live in New York City [VHS] (VHS Tape)

I had the pleasure some years ago now to watch John's performance. What can I say? The passion that he exerts into every song, shows his every emotion and the variation of emotions from studio (CD) to live performances. Lennon openly admits he might not know all the words, yet he quickly adds lines of wit to cover this.

This video is more than a live show. It is a great documentary in many ways! Seeing him on stage, you really get to feel the power and the awe he generated, as you slowly understand the songs and emotions. Even though the years have passed, that something about John still you.

This video of his final live performance is for all fans to buy! No matter if you are a hardcore fan or if you are learning the music of Lennon for the first time. You need to witness the magic of John Lennon through this tape!

It is a must buy!

5.0 out of 5 stars Great insight into his classic songs sung live, May 17, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: John Lennon: Live in New York City [VHS] (VHS Tape)

Having watched this video I have to say that it is excellent, All of the songs on this video have a different air to them when sung live which is often more striking than the studio versions. This is an excellent buy for either a hardcore fan or a vague fan.
