Hello, I'm "Lady Deezire", and I am a Marley Family enthusiast. I purchased their video in 1998, and I still play it at least twice a month. It shows the extended Marley Family getting down to some incredible Reggae Mon, I just wish some scenes were not cut out of the video because, I also have the Double CD and it contains some bonus songs not shown on the video version, I assume because of time. Other than getting shorted a few clips of performances, I truly enjoyed it. It's a must have for anyone who truly calls themself a Marley Family Fan. Jah Bless!

This is a great moment for Bob Marley fans. Ziggy,Julian,Steve and Damian was excelent. This is a collection item for sure, a must have video. Jah Live. E-Mail me connasist@uswest.net

I read a couple of reviews about this dvd and had to respond. no this is not the greatest concert flim, but its works for me. there is not enough reggae concert flims around, so i won't be that super critcial. Julian and Damian's energy can be felt, and keep in mind they are much better performers now ! this flim is in 1996!! they have grown! its was good to see Ziggy and the Melody Makers, and Rita looked like she was truly having fun. ok the low point was Yvad!!! he should have been the opener. low energy from him and I just didn't feel the songs

buy this for a true reggae fan

Do not buy this DVD if you really love Bob Marley. There is no "magic" in it.
It is a regular video for a regular party that is so boring to watch and without much music to listen.

I think the Marley family needs to listen to Bob interviews and learn that Bob was not looking for quick money and fame, that come to him naturally. Reggae is to educate all people around the world and to bring consciousness to African about our struggle. And the family is just capitalizing on his hard work for a quick profit, and forget Bob and the other wailers hard struggle to be recognize by the international seen hope they will learn and get back to the roots of the people that has not voice, that Bob intended the music to speak for.

After looking at this product, I have found this to be an EXCELLENT representation of The Marley familys aatempt to carry on the famous work that BOB started..I have been a Reggae musician scince the inception of Reggae into the Wesstern world..Bob would be proud of all his family for this production...REGGAE 4EVA..REGARDS...DOC J..

All this negativity, I thought it was great and appreciate all the performances that were given. I don't think it was shameful, I am glad the family is trying to keep bob's memory alive! So I Liked it!

As I have already submitted my review..I would just like to add that I have sent this site and all within it to my own mailing list which contains 1734 E-mail addresses as they are all followers of Bob Marley..and Reggae.. Kind Regards..."Doc J"..

This dvd is an insult to the memory of Bob Marley. It is an attempt of the Marley family to cash in a few dollars using Bob's legacy. The members of the family do not have any talent as singers nor musicians with the exeption of Rita and Ziggy, the rest is just forgettable. If you want to hear good Marley reggae just go to your local reggae bar and I assure you will be more satisfied...

Boy this stunk. I am a huge fan of reggae and Bob Marley and thought this was a joke. For the most part, I don't think the Marley family has too much musical talent and this is a big showcase of that. Particularly bad are Stephen's "Rastaman Vibration" and all the songs by Damien and Julian. Yet another attempt by the Marleys to cash in on Bob's name. Shameful.
