The Corrs: Live at the Royal Albert Hall/Lansdowne Road

Rock solid for a pop group

The video quality of this dvd is just fair. I felt like I was watching it with VHS. But the show sounded really good with the stadium reverb and all that. It's the best video to see the pretty Corrs. They look younger there. Yea..it was quite some time already. So if you want the best looking of the Corrs either get this or the Live in London.

They basically performed 95% of the songs they made back then (talk on corner and forgiven not forgotten). The fans were dancing when instrumentals were being played. It was a joy to watch.

This dvd comes with some bonus videos like breathless MV and 2 other performances @ Fleadh 2000.

At last, the show was great. It's not an ordinary concert that you'd expect from a pop group. With some jamming breaks going on when Andrea was introducing the band and some memorable guitar solos from Anto. February 10, 2008

Not the definitive performance, but very good.

I own Live at The Royal Albert Hall as well as Live at Lansdowne Road. The Royal Albert Hall DVD is superior, in my opinion. The main differences between the two are the sound quality and the atmosphere. Live at The Royal Albert Hall has excellent sound quality and great sound mixing too. It was recorded in a more intimate atmosphere and doesn't have the echoing reverberations that the Landsdowne Road show has. Lansdowne suffers from poor audio--it sounds like you're standing at the back of the stadium. The mixing is also bad with non-existent percussion. The direction is also a bit frenetic for my taste.

However, Lansdowne Road still has a lot going for it. Among the DVD highlights are, No Frontiers with Sharon and Caroline on vocals, a rocking version of So Young, great subtitles with both captions and lyrics, nice bonus features and, I might add, Sharon looks like a billion dollars on this night.

I recommend this DVD but Live at The Royal Albert Hall is my favourite. January 1, 2008

Avoid purchasing this at all costs !!!

Avoid purchasing this product. Even though Amazon lists the Region Code as "1" (U.S. and Canada only) the DVD I received was in a PAL format which does not play on my machine. Unfortunately, I had already opended the DVD before I realized it wouldn't play. So, when Amazon describes this offering as a region 1 -- DO NOT BELIEVE THEM !!! October 1, 2007

Great concert, poor resolution

I was torn between 4 and 5 stars. The concert itself is wonderful, but the first time I watched it, I was very disappointed in the resolution. I don't know if that was intentional, but I would like to see one of their concerts in HD. March 9, 2007

Region 2

I bought this in October. At the time it WAS NOT LABELED region 2. No hacks are available for my DVD players so I am limited to playing this on the pc. First saw this concert on PPV on Direct TV. It is the best. January 11, 2007
