I would strongly agree with the review who said to grab a beer and crank it up, and of course disagree with the other reviewer. How can you go wrong with an Austin City Limits production? This 80-plus minute concert has many of REK's fan favorites, but leaving out the TexMex songs such as Gringo Honeymoon, Mariano, Sonora's Death Row. The band is in fine form, and there is a good mix of up-tempo and melodic tunes. Of course lead guitarist Rich Brotherton stands out. He is simply one of the finest guitar slingers around. I cannot imagine even a casual REK fan not enjoying this DVD. Now I am waiting for the "Live from The Ryman" to come out on DVD. Robert Earl is worth seeing in concert!

THIS IS A VERY GOOD CONCERT DVD BY ROBERT EARL KEEN AND HIS 7 PIECE BAND!!! This one's a "Keeper"!!! It contains 17 very good songs. It contains the Johnny Cash song "I still miss someone" and the Towns Vandt Zant song "Snowin' on Raton". The other songs have a southern,country theme to them. It was recorded on August 22, 2001. This is a very good dvd, and I recommend it. Thanks, and may God Bless!!!

I've listened to REK for a while and was looking forward to this dvd, watched it once and put it at the back of my collection. I think you should be able to understand and hear what a singer/songwriter is relating to you. I couldn't understand enough to be related to. This is one of those productions that you wonder about and go "why?"

This is good stuff. The sound is killer and video is top notch.
Get a beer, crank it up......

After watching this one, I would recommend the #2 Live Dinner dvd over this one, I was disappointed to say the least!
