5.0 out of 5 stars Now this is what a concert is all about, October 27, 2004
By Richard Friedmann (Brooklyn, NY United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I couldn't agree more with the other reviews here.

I'm not much for filmed concerts of any musical genre. They usually fall flat and there's so much camera work that it's hard to stay focused on the music. Not so with "Live In Los Angeles".

To say this concert is enjoyable is an understatement. We were dancing in our seats, waving our hands, applauding and felt young again watching Mary. It's not about costumes and glitz on stage. The music and the voice are what's commanding your attention here. You can't help but be caught up in the mastery of Ms. Blige's voice. She has never sounded better to my ears.

From the whirlwind groove of hit singles she starts the show with to the quieter thought provoking "Children of the Ghetto" centerpiece, then back for more uptempo songs through the end, Mary's energy and passion for the music and lyrics never wavers. The band is superb and those back up singers...WOW!!!

Not one song is ever lipsynched to. Brava, Mary!

Now I can't wait for the performance at House of Blues to be released shortly. You've made me a fan, Mary.

5.0 out of 5 stars Remedy., April 3, 2006
By Brandon A. Coles "OmNyx" (Orangeburg, SC USA) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
Returning to Los Angeles for the first time since "The Tour" in 1998, Mary J. Blige's "Love & Life Tour" was captured on April 20, 2004 with a performance that can best be described as LEGENDARY!! Backed with a seven-piece band led by bassist Zachary Scott, keyboardists Carnell Thigpen & Luke Motley and the explosive rhythms of Rex Hardy, Jr., six dancers, and four of the most talented background vocalists ever assembled on a live stage, she took me on a journey back through time and hit me with the future Mary J. in a resounding fashion. The arrangements, the energy, the warmth of her sincerity, her humility and words of encouragement throughout the entire DVD are all unparallel. She literally gave me chills singing Philip Bailey's classic, "Children of the Ghetto." The way she personified it reveals the agony she experienced growing up. Another creative aspect of the film is when we see Mary J. depicted being surrounded by a mass of producers at a table telling her how to be successful. She bellows, "The fans have cried and damned near died with me. Y'all can't even relate to Mary J. Blige." Just as she walks out of the room, with her husband Kendu Issacs tailing her, we see a shot of Mathew Knowles (Beyonce's father) trying to convince her about generating profits. She reiterates, "If we don't have the fans, we don't exist." This was the film's ultimate theme. We get to know Mary personally. What's missing in today's entertainment industry is the closeness of an artist to the fan base. As the album continues to enlighten, her voice is better than ever on the live show. She worked wonders on every song, especially with "My Life," "Your Child," "The Love I Never Had," featuring a hot guitar solo by Shon Hinton, "No More Drama" & "Everything." [I sure wish she would have done "Missing You," "Love Is All We Need," "All That I Can Say" and "Give Me You" live!!! No biggie!!] Her band literally electrified the stage as every song was accurately translated and performed with such tenacity. In its conclusion, she sings "Family Affair" and the band incorporates a portion of Michael Jackson's "Billie Jean" as the dancers paying homage to the King of Pop with their flashy choreography. WOW!! This is a very poignant live DVD. Big ups to Mathew Knowles, J. Kevin Swain, and Merck Mercuriadis at Sanctuary Urban for producing such an awesome feature. After years of so much pain and suffering, "Live from Los Angeles" is a definite remedy to the life of MJB!!

3.0 out of 5 stars It's an okay DVD for an OKay singer
It amazes me how people praise this lady, she sounds FLAT, her vocals are off pitch, and the tone, she doesn't have one.
