Reo Speedwagon: Live in the Heartland [Blu-ray]

This is a re-release of "Soundstage Presents: REO Speedwagon Live In The Heartland". Note that the price for this re-release is lower than the original blu-ray.Here's the set list of 16 songs.Find Your Own Way HomeTake It On The RunKKeep Pushin'I Needed To FallTough GuysCan't Fight This FeelingDangerous CombinationBack On The Road AgainSmilin' In The EndTime For Me To FlyDon't Let Him GoKeep On Loving YouRoll With The ChangesRidin' The Storm OutGolden Country157 Riverside AvenueThere are two additional acoustic songs.I Needed To FallRiding' The Storm OutIt is about 38 years since this group hit it big. The main vocalist, Kevin Cronin, has matured gracefully since the early years.I enjoyed Mr. Cronin's singing. He still sings well and he clearly enjoys himself and the audience. His voice may have changed and on this concert I heard a minor lisp.You hear the hit songs from the radio, including the rock ballads, "Can't Fight This Feeling" and "Keep On Loving You". The concert experience is pleasant and the audience clearly loves him. Kevin Cronin is professional, friendly, and moves with ease. I think fans, as well as people who have never seen this group, would appreciate this concert.Audio and video are fine on blu-ray.

I also just saw this concert on PBS, and was FLOORED. It is obvious that these guys have been performing live, non-stop since the late 1970s. On stage, these guys are a well oiled machine. The talent and skills are higher now than when they released Hi Infidelity. My wife and I watched this concert over and over on our Tivo, and like this live concerts vertions of the REO songs better than the original album vertions. The audio and video quality of the broadcast concert were outstanding and I hope it is on this DVD also. I am trying to find this concert on Blu Ray, but if it is not offered that way, I will still buy the regular DVD vertion because this is a performance I know I will enjoy with my wife for years to come.After being so impressed with this, I will admit that my wife and I went to the REO Speedwagon web site to see if we can go see them live in concert! I have not been to a concert in over 20 years, but can't wait to see these guys in person.

I agree with alot of the other reviews that described this concert with the "WOW FACTOR."A friend brought this over for me to watch recently, the first thing I asked was "is Gary Richrath on it?" The answer was NO, so I was somewhat subdued by that fact, but once we started watching this concert, I was captivated the whole time, these guys flat out rock the entire show, it was amazing and incredible, I was completely blown away. The audio and video are excellent, but most importantly the band was smokin' hot, so those three elements make for an excellent production to the max.I don't really understand those couple of negative reviews, "Kevin's voice is about shot, and these guys look old and haggard." Those remarks were way off base. I can't believe anyone could watch this and then make negative remarks like that.I highly recommend this DVD to anyone who wants to hear a top quality band that flat out rocks.

The concert takes place on the Sound Stage set for PBS and all in all is a good DVD. The sound quality is very good although lacking in the inclusion of audience and room mics to give you a more live sound feel. REO rips through their many many hit songs and Kevin Cronin's voice still holds up well even with the audible autotune. I wish that artists that use autotune would have it mixed lower so it sounds more natural. A slight sharp or flat note would be okay with me and would be a fair tradeoff for a more real performance sound. I would recommend the"live at Moondance Festival" dvd instead of this title

This is the best dvd REO Speedwagon has come out with and the best live concert dvd I have ever seen. It's in HD. It has 5.1 surround. REO is entertaining and energetic through the entire set. Where is the hall-of-fame nod for this band? C'mon. This band is real big into charity whether it's participating in an event or creating their own fundraiser to benefit others. Great group of people surround the REO camp. Give back to REO. Buy this dvd - then buy their latest cd "Find Your Own Way Home". Or, go see a live show.

Oh the passage of time. If only this recording had been done 20 years ago or so when Kevin's voice was much younger. Don't get me wrong here, I would still pay to hear Kevin sing. You must remember that much of Reo's music is powerfull, melodic, vocal, Rock and Roll music. At his best, Kevin WAS the best. This particular concert has excellent sound, crisp and hi-fidelity. Picture quality is flawless. The production is unsurpassed, this by the way is what helps Cronin out immensely. The vocals are definitely dubbed, the band is really singing live but on top of pre-recorded music and vocal tracks. The end result....very good. REO still Rocks, highly skilled musicians at their best. Great rendition of Golden Country definitely a highlight. I recommend it.

This video shows that after almost 40 years,they still have it.I've seen REO in concert literally 15 times and they ALWAYS put on a great show.I have never been disappointed by a show and this video keeps the drive alive.They may be up there in age,but they still act like a young band and have a following like very few long term groups.I absolutely recommend this DVD to anyone who has fond memories of Reo.The new stuff sounds a bit different then the old,but if you open your mind,it still sounds like REO.

Excellent concert video. Crystal clear video, excellent sound. All the greatest hits. Some songs I did not know they performed. Songs from their latest album. Great drum solos. Kevin still has a great voice. I waited 3 years for this to come out on blu ray. Well worth the wait. All my buddies like it, too. All in all... a MUST have for any REO fan. 2 thumbs up!! Buy it, steal it, rent it!! Must have for me.

hola,muy buen servicio. muy eficiente. me gusto mucho el disco pero sobre todo el servicio es muy bueno.muchas gracias.

bought for a friend who loves it the quality is excellent

Great concert mixing their classic songs with their new 2007 album (Find Your Own Way Home), which is as good as their work in the 80s.IF you like their classic Hi Infidelity album then this DVD and their relatively new album is a must to buy.

Als Mensch fast schon mittleren Alters waren mir vor allem die allseits bekannten Titel natürlich geläufig. Einige kannte ich dagegen noch gar nicht, oder sie fielen mir nie so richtig auf. Aber eines muss ich wirklich sagen: Die Jungs habens live echt drauf. Wenn jemand einfach guten Rock live super dargeboten erleben will, ist diese DVD unumgänglich. Es ist ehrlicher handgespielter Sound mit (für mich persönlich) super Qualität. Man merkt, dass die Band Spass hat. Und für das Alter, dass alle mittlerweile haben dürften, geben sie wirklich Gas. Da können sich die heutigen Retortenbands, die des Musikmachens nicht mehr mächtig sind, eine riesengroße Scheibe abschneiden.Leider sind solche Bands leider von der aussterbenden Art. Von mir gibt's ne klare Kaufempfehlung !!!!

REO スピードワゴン本当に20年振りぐらいで見ました デビュー40周年らしいですが、昔のままです ボーカルのケビン・クローニンさんしか当時は印象がないですが、私が聴いていた頃と、甘いハスキーボイスは変わってなかったです。見た目イメージが違って髪は短く金髪ですが、まだ若い、どうしても最大のヒット曲、涙のフィーリング、まあ、これを聴きたくて買ったようなもの、当時は中学生で、ドーナツ盤を擦り切れるほど聴き、発売間もないビデオで、夜中にエアチェックしたものです 自分がいちばん聴いていた「Wheels Are Turnin'」からの選曲が少ないので残念、One Lonely Night や Live Every Moment が聴きたかったな 他にも、キープ・オン・ラヴィン・ユーなど懐かしい曲を堪能できます 1.
