A must have for Barrington fans. Having seen him in concert several times, this DVD captures it. The video kinda sucks, could have been shot better but the audio is great. Also comes with cd to play songs. Barrington is always best live anyway!

Some of the other reviewers are not into this, mainly because of the poor video quality on the DVD. What do you expect? It is a front of house camera. We are lucky to have the video at all.

The real value is the high quality sound board audio you get from this show. The CD is amazing. The audio on the DVD is great.

Great show. The crowd sings along. The energy is high. The band rocks. Barrington has a soul. His vocal work is excellent.

If you have an open mind about the video, you will LOVE this BARGAIN of a deal DVD / CD for less than $10? Can't be beat.

If you love Barrington Levy, or if you just love roots reggae from the 1980's & 1990's, this is a great set. You get an entire concert of some of his best songs on the DVD and the same songs on the CD to listen to anywhere. This set is a great value. I bought it for a friend and we watched it together. He loved it and said it was going to be one of his favorite reggae CDs. I think I'll order one for my collection!

Must respect to you, Rasta lover! If you are true lover of Rasta and the love of Jah, this DVD is for you. You may be a bit disappointed in the quality of the video "graininess", but the sound is satisfying. One Love, Nigel Montego.

I wanted this dvd to be good, but try as I might....I just couldn't get into it. I've seen Barrington perform live several times (including during an amazing set at Reggae on the River 06 in NorCal - go to YouTube and you'll see exactly what I mean), but this dvd is truly a disappointment. The sound quality is horrible, and the fans seem pretty clueless to me (sorry San Francisco); when B Levy tries to break it down with his soulfull "Vice Versa Love" (one of my alltime favorite reggae songs), you can sense his frustration with the lack of attention and respect from the fans. I'm truly surprised that this dvd was even released, and I'm stunned that someone hasn't come along who can capture this man's genius on film. Save your money; I ended up giving this one away. The production is truly horrible.

I've seen Barrington Levy perform live 4 times; the most recent time was at Reggae on the River last summer (07) - you can watch an amazing clip of his set on YouTube. This dvd is HORRIBLE....the production value is the worst I have ever seen in a dvd, period. The crowd seems absolutely clueless, especially when Barrington tries to take it down a notch with his melodious "Vice Versa Love", and you can literally hear people yelling at waitresses for more drinks. I ended up throwing this one away, and I LOVE reggae. Save your money and get something else, trust me.
