George Thoroughgood & The Destroyers: Live in '99

Customer Reviews:

A Great Workout Disc!.......2007-09-17

Hard rocker George Thorogood plays a set of songs that made him semi-famous. Thorogood isn't old, but he's no spring chicken anymore, either. However, that doesn't seem to slow him (or many contemporaries) down. He works up a good sweat and puts on a fine performance on this DVD. He is backed by Bill Blough on bass; Hank Carter on sax, keyboard and vocals; Jeff Simon on drums and percussion and Jim Suhler on guitar.

This would make a great aerobic workout DVD! George and his band will keep you moving! You can shake your whatever for almost an hour-and-a-half, too! It plan old good, hard-driving rock 'n roll.

Disappointed in 99.......2002-06-08

The cd by the same name is fine, the vhs video is fine, but the dvd is flawed. CMC international should recall this dvd and re-publish it with the audio corrected. Either that or they need to supply a line amplifier with every disc. The audio is recorded about 10 to 15db below where it should be. It is the only dvd that I have come across that needs so much volume gain to bring the sound up to normal listening levels. Most all of the other reviews fault the audio. I believe that a mistake was made encoding the sound on this disc, and the publisher should correct it. Until then, I reccomend that buyers who are interested in this otherwise great concert stick with the vhs or the cd.

Poor quality.......2002-05-04

Video and songs included were great. The quality of the audio is horrible. The point of buying a DVD is to get video with CD quality. The music was muted and flat.
I returned the DVD. I am a big Thoroughgood fan but this is a waste.!!

Great concert but bad sound!.......2002-02-28

I live in an apartment and listen to everything through Senheiser headphones and a Pioneer 300 watt two channel stereo. And have a Toshiba 36" TV.

That having been said, I thought the concert was fantastic. the video was perfectly clear, and the tecnical direction was great. BUT the sound gets softer on the left side from time to time (You can hear it in the crowd noise. And the vocals through Georges main mike go from super to very echoie if you know what I mean.

Also the DVD is recorded VERY VERY low. So you will need POWER to get any volume at all.

Like has been previously stated. If you listen through the TV speakers you'll be fine. Anything higher tech than that and you'll hear the differences that I've stated.
