Her eccentricities mark her as an acquired taste, but Alanis Morissette has always ignored what others see as the fashionable or commercial thing to do. Live in the Navajo Nation, an hour-long distillation of her musical and cultural discoveries while visiting the Navajo Nation in America's great Southwest, is a case in point. Morissette observes and absorbs what she sees, Navajo history, spirituality, and culture providing the impetus for her own creativity. Amid these grand vistas, Morissette's own music takes on a more personal bent: accompanied only by acoustic guitar, percussion, and her own flute or harmonica, several songs from her second album, Supposed Former Infatuation Junkie, take on new life, including standouts "U R" and "I Was Hoping." Even the wrong-headedly literal "Ironic" takes on amusingly earnest implications in this setting. Also included is a five-minute behind-the-scenes featurette. --Kevin Filipski

You are a big fan of Alanis then you will certainly like this DVD. Do not expect exciting stuff.It's not really a documentary about Alanis but mostly about Indian culture and Great Canyon beauties. Alanis is here to sing some songs (UNPLUGGED) in the middle of mother nature in front nobody except the camera !!! She loves it but I wonder if it's really interesting.For sure, it really shows that Alanis must be a simple and kind person with a great talent. So if you like Alanis to death or Indians or great canyons, then this stuff is for you. I recommend Feast of Scraps if you really want great music and great documentary.

I own several in the MIHP series, and while the production on all of them is excellent, I'm really disappointed in some of the titles that are not anamorphic. This one IS letterbox, but require zooming in to fill a 16:9 set, which reduces the video quality greatly. Thus, I give it 4 stars instead of 5.
See the Goo Goo Dolls or India Arie for a difference.
Love the tunes, though.

I really enjoyed watching this DVD. It is great. Alanis is an amazing artist and this DVD shows just how great she can sound without the magic of a recording studio and production. The special features are cool, too. This DVD is pretty much an outdoor "Unplugged" concert, but without the audience. My favorites are "Ironic" "Uninvited" and "Heart Of The House." I really liked also that you learn history about the Navajo Indians as well as an Alanis treat. I learned a lot about the Natives and history of the different famous places that Alanis visited. The scenery was breath-taking and the music was spectacular. I wish she would've sang "Hands Clean" though. Otherwise this is a great DVD, one I will probably watch over and over endlessly! It is a must have for any Alanis Morissette fan or any fan of the "Music In High Places" series. It's great, you'll love it. I reccomend it to anyone! Enjoy!
