Editorial Reviews:

Amazon.co,
There were a lot of bald heads, bad backs, and big bellies crowded into Pittsburgh's Benedum Center for the Performing Arts, both onstage and off, for this November 2002 concert, and it's apparent that everyone thoroughly enjoyed themselves. And how could it be otherwise, when artists and audience members of a certain (i.e., middle) age get together for a 107-minute soul/R&B revue that encompasses two or three decades of terrific songs and performances? Originally broadcast by PBS, the 18-song show includes everything from soul standards like "Respect" (sung by a rather hefty but still effective Aretha Franklin) to disco hymns like Gloria Gaynor's "I Will Survive" and Thelma Houston's magnificent "Don't Leave Me This Way," with a few ballad chestnuts (Blue Magic's "Side Show," Peaches and Herb's "Reunited") added for good measure. OK, so some of these folks are a bit past their primes. But for the most part, this program (which includes several backstage interviews) is less about nostalgia than simply having a darn good time. --Sam Graham

4 out of 5 stars MISSED IT!   February 1, 2008
Somebody dared ask 'why is Aretha considered the Queen of Soul. Take a little time to watch her rendition of Freeway of Love with Ollie Woodson on this dvd. Soul is when you take a song everyone already knows and you give it that something else, taking it to another level. Nobody does this better than The Queen. I took away a star because the Originals were left off the dvd. Long Live The Queen.

2 out of 5 stars Muffled vocals ruin an otherwise enjoyable concert   February 17, 2006
 1 out of 1 found this review helpful

The line up of 60's and 70's soulsters is interesting - an eclectic mixture of the well known and the not so famous. The backing orchestration and vocals are excellent. However, everything unravels when the lead vocals commence. The singers all sound as if there was a curtain between them and the microphone when the recordings were made. It is not just a matter of 60 year old vocal chords being weaker than 20 year old. It is not the obvious lack of proper balance between the audience noise and the music. The simple problem is that the vocals were not mixed at the correct volume. I can understand such a problem with a 1960 concert. This is a 2003 production! I am perplexed.
