 Great Concert - Average Recording September 30, 2008
I bought this DVD in New Zealand and before looking at it, I checked out the reviews on Amazon. Upon seeing all the reviews relating to sound defects, I quickly played it. My copy was reproduced evenly through both stereo speakers, but it sounded like they forgot to put any microphones around the drummer. Lionel's vocals were recorded very well, the overall sound lacked depth and bass and a rather thin trebly sound was all I got.
I don't know if this is what 5.1 surround sound is like if you only have two speakers (standard stereo), if so I would be surprised.
Lionel puts on a good show, he really gets the crowd going and age is no barrier to him performing well - all the correct notes are hit and he sounds as good now as he did in the 1970's.
I was looking forward to the well known song "Endless Love", but this was the only disappointing performance for me - he only performed half the song and he got the crowd to do all the female (Diana Ross) parts of the song - great crowd interaction, but you never got to appreciate this pretty song.
In summary, a great concert, great video and very average audio, which is a shame. I am sure Lionel would be disappointed with these comments on this modern recording.

Hey Lionel, what is wrong with you my friend?
 Great DVD for Fans of Lionel Richie's Solo Career June 13, 2008
Great to see him do the 'old' and the 'new' stuff and there's a mix of a couple of songs that really took some thought to come up with.
Kudos, Lionel... come out with more soon!!
i hope Amazon is listening April 22, 2008
I really enjoy listening to Lionel Richie and was looking forward to purchasing this DVD. That is until I read the reviews here on Amazon. After doing some checking online I've come to the conclusion that almost everyone who has purchased this has ended up with a defective copy and the producers ignore the fans who contact them. So sadly this is one fine concert that I won't be adding to my collection. My advice is you want to find out for yourself put away your wallet and get it from the library if you still want to hear it.
 Audio Missing Left Channel April 19, 2008
Beware the dvd has almost all of the audio missing from the left front and left rear channels on the concert footage. The videos have the audio intact. This is very disappointing and is almost not worth watching. We did not watch the disc until it was too late to return it so it will become an expensive coaster.
Lionel Richie should be pissed off and demand that all of those listed here get a new release of the disc with corrected audio. What do you say Lionel??
