Fine job product as mentioned!
Reviewed in the United States on November 27, 2011
This one is so awesomely intoxicating, it's spooky. All in a GREAT way.

Where has this gem been hiding? Thank goodness someone had the wisdom to raid the vast archival library (of Stones recordings) and release this filmed beauty on DVD. Gorgeous moment in rock & roll history, wonderfully captured for posterity!

For perspective, let's make it clear this concert performance by The Stones is so exciting & INTENSE that their other live DVDs pale in comparison. While the other prime era documents of their live shows --- "Rock & Roll Circus," "Gimme Shelter" & "Ladies & Gentlemen... The Rolling Stones" included --- ain't too shabby & are remarkably accomplished, this 1978 concert performed in Ft. Worth, Texas is the GOLD standard.

The Stones are ON-FIRE & extremely animated throughout most of this gig. "Far Away Eyes" and "Love in Vain" are the only possible exceptions to this rule, yet they still remain entertaining & intriguing viewing. The rest of the set is pure rockin' ecstasy & absolutely off-the-charts! To see & hear the band interpret the "Some Girls" material is delightfully revelatory; The Stones attack the new tunes with wild abandon and are obviously enjoying the overall experience. Fortunately, this spirit of unbridled ENERGY has been spectacularly captured on-camera and faithfully transferred to DVD.

The cinematography contained on the DVD is stellar & first-rate in all respects. The visuals have elements of in-your-face close-ups (when following the music warrants such tight shots) but wider, more all-inclusive camera angles are also present which allow the viewer to see the entire stage. The framing of almost all of the shots is predicated upon the cameraman's desire to fully document all of the action. On this score & in the editing process, the director/producer is very successful in capturing all of Mick Jagger's feverish moves & stage antics. It is also notable that the edits are not manic or annoyingly slapdash in nature. No MTV-style slashing edits, leading to nauseousness, are to be found here. The pacing is measured & entirely sensible...a pleasure to behold, completely complimentary to the rock music being played.

Highlights: Almost too many to mention but "Shattered" is performed in appropriately blistering fashion. Jagger's staccato delivery is ferociously HOT and Ron & Keith's dual-guitar assault is equally menacing. Their rambunctious vocals provide fun, rollicking support, too. And the take of "Just My Imagination" is pushed way over-the-top by Jagger's theatrical vocal contribution (complete with fiery spicy language)! It is the BEST rendition I've EVER heard of this cover tune, having sampled more than a few live versions of "Just My Imagination" from various 1978 North American Tour bootleg recordings.

My previous favorite audio from the tour was the "Out on Bail: 1978 U.S. Tour" boot, capturing the band in live performance at the Capitol Theatre, Passaic, New Jersey, on June 14, 1978. That one's still a keeper for its raw, unrehearsed quality; I LOVE my live Stones that way! But for everyone else, the DVD audio of this Ft. Worth gig from July 18th, will provide sheer sonic listening pleasure. Both the Dolby Digital 5.1 & the DTS Digital Surround audio are extremely well-done examples of HIGH fidelity sound. The sound is studio-like in its clarity: clear, crisp & crunchy with an astounding dynamic range. The balance in the mix is worthy of mention here, too. Instruments are nicely balanced, guitars have left/right channel separation, and Mick's vocals are upfront without dominating the proceedings too much. Obviously, the music is the main focus throughout so audience reaction (while audible between numbers) is minimized to such an extent --- during the band's playing --- that the listener/viewer is often hard-pressed to even detect the crowd's presence.

All things considered, the most FANTABULOUS aspect of this new DVD release is its ability to place the viewer squarely onstage with The Rolling Stones while they're tearing up the place. You are transported right to the scene of the action and nothing is missed! In fact, instead of a "you were there" feeling, we are treated to a "YOU ARE THERE" experience. The cumulative effect of the exceptional DVD audio & visuals is that our appreciation for the concert is even GREATER than if we had actually attended the show in the first place. One can ask for nothing more.

Like other reviewers I attended this same show. Also I've owned the incomplete half hour bootleg video and a cassette soundboard recording of the complete show for 15 years. Of the many hours of pirated live Stones video/audio in my collection this is among my favorites. That's why I eagerly purchased upgraded DVD/CD versions. The reasons are many.

Charlie Watts' Moon-the-Loon drumming is untypical of him, I've gone to shows from seven or eight tours and never seen Charlie so bombastic. Keef's incisive riffing is an intense rush as he drops phrases and fills with a surgeon's precision into the pauses of Jagger's vocals, which are excellent for being unforced but powerful. He belts every word of Sweet Little Sixteen correctly, except the few he changes on purpose. Ron Wood plays musical foil to Richards' guitar lines as well as being a visual foil of Mick's, their clowning at the front of the stage add adrenaline to the overall performance. Bill Wyman had injured his wrist walking off the edge of the stage four shows earlier on the tour and doctors advised him to cancel the remaining dates; his response was to check out of the hospital the next day and, not only played a concert in St. Louis that night, but eight more to complete the tour. Wyman and Ian Stewart's abilities and presence anchor this truly authentic Stones show, not the Rolling Stones Big Band tours we've witnessed the last twenty years.

That being said, I don't think this is the Stones' pinnacle, yet they still had street cred, seven out of 25 concerts in 1978 were small hall shows billed under ridiculous names like the London Green-Shoed Cowboys. It became fashionable among name bands to play clubs under assumed names, i.e. Aerosmith's unannounced gigs as Dr. J. Jones & the Interns shortly after the Stones did it and validated the concept. By `78 the Stones were past their 1972 peak although still walking and talking it convincingly. I saw two stops of their `72 American summer run and thought they were far better than this particular night. Bobby Keys and Jim Price occupying the Stones' bandstand never bothered me a bit. And it goes without saying that EXILE ON MAIN STREET songs are superior to the ones on SOME GIRLS. Despite my preferences I still rate this DVD five stars for its punk rock energy.

Stevie Wonder opened for the Stones in '72 and his act was terrific but by no means did he steal a bolt of their thunder. Peter Tosh opened for them at this show and I can assure you his band blew the Stones off the stage. That hard groovin' reggae sounded superb in Will Rogers Auditorium and I kept thinking Watts & Co. were going to have to be on top of their game to follow Tosh. I thought they were good that night but not great. In hindsight they sound gritty and enthusiastic, great even. Doug Kershaw doesn't count; I remember the Ft. Worth audience booed the poor guy off the stage before his band could finish their set.

Last and least: a lot of Amazon reviewers seem to think Jagger's trousers were leather. I distinctly recall them being plastic, only a grade heavier than a garbage bag. Photos from the '78 tour indicate he had three pairs: black, red, and yellow. Toward the end of the tour he patched tears in these pants with Xs of red gaffer's tape.

5.0 out of 5 stars Great Concert DVD - If You Like The Stones, This One Should Be In Your Collection
Reviewed in Canada on June 7, 2012
This DVD of a Rolling Stones concert in Texas during the Stones' 1978 Some Girls tour is excellent.

This is the Rolling Stones in their prime. The camera work and editing are good; the sound is very good. This is a Stones DVD that is well worth adding to your collection.

This version with the DVD and a CD of the concert is the one to buy. For any music marketing types reading this, DVD/CD combinations are the way to market concert DVDs, provided the price is right. I think most of us would pay an extra few dollars for a CD/DVD combo over just a DVD.

5.0 out of 5 stars Bought this for the great renditions of Beast of Burden and Miss You, found the rest to be excellent as well.
Reviewed in the United Kingdom on October 30, 2012
I always loved the version of Beast of Burden on display here (it is on youtube in various places, but, as far as I can tell with footage from only one 16mm camera) this has the best sound and the views from different cameras well-mixed.

I watched the rest and I was very pleased to see how the stones were at the top of their game here.

Although I generally prefer Mick Taylor's guitar sound as more lyrical and melodical I find that Ronnie is often underrated and portrayed as a garage rocker. This DVD does his playing justice (as does his 1976 Wild Horses solo of Knebworth).

Having listened to this delightful concert over the past couple of days I have started preferring it over the other Stones live versions, and that says a lot because I love Get Yer Ya Ya's Out and the 1972 and 1973 concerts. My all-time favorite renditions collection would contain many of the ones on this DVD with some added 1973 versions like Gimme Shelter, Heartbreaker and Angie.

5.0 out of 5 stars Un vrai régal
Reviewed in France on November 23, 2011
En pleine vague punk les Stones sortent l'album "Some girls", un album brut de
décoffrage très rock.
Ce concert enregistré en 1978 au Texas reflète bien l'ambiance de cette époque.
Les Stones sont au mieux de leur forme, l'énergie rock est bien présente.
Les guitares de Ron Wood et Keith Richards claquent au vent, Mick Jagger
chante fort et juste, Charlie Watts cogne fort et Bill Wyman fidèle à lui-
même est en retrait mais la basse sonne bien aussi.
Les tubes s'enchaînent pendant 1h30 sans temps mort de Brown Sugar à Honky tonk woman en passant par Tumbling dice et bien d'autres....
De Some girls : Respectable, Faraway eyes, Shattered, Beast of burden, When the whips come down.

Quant au cd il reprend les morceaux du concert.

Un concert très rock à conseiller pour les fans et les autres qui veulent découvrir les Stones.
It's only rock'nd'roll but we like it!
