Best Live Collection I've Ever Heard!, May 23, 2002
By A Customer
This review is from: Live 1982-94 (Audio CD)
This is as close as you can get to seeing Andreas Vollenweider live. Previously unreleased pieces blend magically with old favorites. Mr. Vollenweider is one of the most gracious and kind people in the known universe, and you can hear his contagious joy in his music. Even if you have all the CDs, and this one can only add to the pleasure.

A great overview of Vollenweider's work, with new surprises!, December 30, 2003
This review is from: Live 1982-94 (Audio CD)
Selections from "Trilogy", "Down to the Moon", "Dancing with the Lion", "The Book of Roses" and "Eolian Minstrel", performed live by Vollenweider and his collaborators in concert tours from 1992 through 1994. This 2-CD set also includes an additional nine tracks of previously unreleased material done in a similar style to the cuts on the aforementioned albums--a wonderful bonus for fans of vintage Vollenweider. It's nice to hear the in-concert variations and improvisations of old favorites, and how gratifying also to hear all the live cheers and applause for this truly amazing artist and his repertoire of uniquely fascinating compositions. "The music on these two CDs represents the soundtrack of an unbelievably wonderful time I have shared with all the people listed ..." Vollenweider reflects on the CD insert. "Looking back, I see this as a kind of dream. When we started, it was an experiment, and none of us would have ever thought that this music could ever find so many friends around the world." How could it not? Well done! Thank you, Andreas and friends, for letting the rest of us share in your beautiful world of fantasy, mystery and imagination. Be sure to check out Andreas Vollenweider's many studio recordings, starting with the seminal "Trilogy".

new and different, June 16, 2000
This review is from: Live 1982-94 (Audio CD)
I have been a fan for years and haven't ever purchased an IMPORT before - I decided to try it this time and it was well worth it. Of course, I have never been disappointed with any of andreas' albums, but this one has a mix of all, and added to it a mixture of artists. I would recommend this one for anyone wanting more andreas pleasure and a relaxing listen! :)
