I once inquired of Amazon if they had any "product" of Paul McCartney's latest ('05-'07), and somehow Huey (sans Dewey & Louie) Lewis was trotted out. Absolute rock and roll blasphemy to insert one of the main reasons that "eighties music" stunk in the same "search" as one of the Beatles. I hope I live long enough to see Huey Lewis, "Bono," and Garth Brooks exposed as the sheer, unfabricated hoaxes that they are. Amazon, this is absolutely inexcusible. November 7, 2007

It was okay. Live at 25 has better sound, better audio...and Huey has a better voice now. March 20, 2007

I saw Huey Lewis and the News in Seattle, right around the time this concert was filmed. I loved his concert. The music will get your heartbeat going strong (opening song..Heart of Rock n Roll).

The video quality is quite good on this dvd, the sound is good, but not like concerts recorded in this era. Huey plays an excellent harmonica for quite a bit in a few songs. He's fun to watch on stage, in the prime of his life, and the band is flawless. Camera angles and shots on stage were done well.

If you enjoy Huey Lewis and the News, this is a must for your collection. March 14, 2002

.. but a few disappointments. First the video quality is sub par for a DVD in my opinion. Second, the video is marred by terrible-looking titles displayed for several seconds on each song--wouldn't have minded it if they were smaller and in a better font. Also Huey's singing on "Heart and Soul" at the beginning is drowned out for some reason. All of this is probably due to the original broadcast and couldn't be helped, but I just couldn't give it 5 stars. That being said there are numerous good points: Huey's harp solo, a short drum solo before "Workin for a Living", an uptempo version of "Bad is Bad" (different than the version on Sports), good camera work, and good audio quality (aside from "Heart and Soul"). Definately an essential for a Huey Lewis and the News fan! August 4, 2001
