A MUST have!

Andria, Sharon, Caroline and Jim Corr at the Royal Albert Hall on St. Patricks Day. The Corrs had enjoyed some recognition for their musical stylings worldwide, but had yet to enjoy the fame and fortune of other musical talent as they had not or could not break into the mainstream.

This concert was recorded live on the BBC at some risk, only a few knew of the Irish band. So there was even a question of how many seats would be left open and how the cameramen could make it look full. Second, how would a "conservative" London England crowd react? Would they react at all, other than clapping politely after every song?

This DVD captures one of the worlds greatest bands when they were still young, and you actually see them mature over the course of the 85 minute show. What is really fun is seeing the Corrs taking over the crowd at every song. What starts as the obligatory applause at the beginning of the show, finally culminates with a cheering standing ovation and the Corrs returning for a two song encore feauturing "So young" and a unbelievable live performance of "Toss the Feathers". Even the camera men get in on the act. The beginning of the show has a few camera cuts to different angles and shots but nothing compared to the end of the show. Cameras zoom in and out, great shots of Andria playing the Tin Whistle. Then a sharp cut to Caroline on the Drums. Close ups of Sharon on the Violin and through it all, Jim on the guitar and keyboard. The producers also had to see the crowd turning through the show, because by the Encore, they are showing people in the balconies and box seats clapping and dancing.

Not only is it a visual concert, but the music is beautifully spaced with the lighting and the song selection is spot on. This is a must have title for anyone who simply appreciates good music. If you are a fan of concert videos and you do not have this concert, your collection simply is not complete.

Mick Fleetwood makes an appearance on three songs, one of which is a re-make of "Dreams". Mick says it all at the very end of the concert when he approaches the microphone, says something to Andria, then says to the crowd. "Let's hear it for this fantastic band! Playing with PASSION!".

Corrs Live at the Royal Albert Hall - DVD

Outstanding concert! Great quality recording from one of the best musical groups in recent times. Camera work was good, and sound quality excellent. If you're not familiar with the Corrs work before the 'In Blue' release, this is an excellent concert covering their first releases. You can listen to it over and over without tiring of the quality of the music.

The Corrs Live at Royal Albert Hall...Best concert so far!

I love The Corrs! I have seen several "live" Corrs concert recordings and this is by far their definitative best. This concert highlights all of the Corrs wonderful talents. Sharon, Andrea, Caroline, and Jim perform such a fantastic show with a blend of great talent and showmanship comensurate with the outstanding musical quality that we'vew come to enjoy from the Irish siblings. When Mick Fleetwood joins into the fray with a "drum-off" collaboration with Caroline, the concert peaks in intensity. My only hope is that this wonderful group from Ireland decide to continue making beautiful music for many years to come.
