The Greatest Hits - And Then Some

This is one SUPERFANTASTICONCERT! Done at Wembley Arena, London, in 1993, it is one of the 3 best Barry DVDs I've seen to date. It is a wee bit over 1 1/2 hours of heart-thumpin' foot-stompin' ENERGY!!! Barry just jumps all over the stage on this one when he's not sitting at the piano. He puts the energizer bunny to shame 100 times over. The renditions of the songs are great, as is the quality of the DVD. You will not be disappointed. In between the songs, Barry chit chats with the audience.It begins and ends with a clip of "The Best of Me." As always, Barry sings great songs and medleys, with so much feeling in them. He truly sings with his heart and soul.Included is a fantastic version of one of my all-time Barry favorites "I Don't Wanna Walk Without You." "Travelin' Medley: A Little Travelin' Music Please," is a nice up-beat clip, and he quickly moves into the high-energy "New York City Rhythm" (and he's UP!)--and he's bangin' the piano keys. Now he's up again. There he goes! "Avenue C" gives off some wild jazz vocals and some movement. Now to "Jumpin At the Woodside" and "Bandstand Boogie." The crowd is going wild!This video is done so well, that when Barry is sitting at the piano, he makes you feel like you have a chair on stage, right in front of him while he's singing to you. You're so close, that you can see the water rolling down his face. There is also the high-energy "Copacabana" and another of my favorites "Stay," an absolutely beautiful song. Barry says it was only a hit in England. I don't know why. It's so pretty and so sexy! It's not on many of his CDs either. London is lovin' it and singin' along. What an awesome showman he is! That was an extended version of "Stay". "If Tomorrow Never Comes," a beautiful Garth Brooks song, is also included (...if tomorrow never comes, will she know how much I love her...), absolutely beautiful words and music. The very upbeat version of "Could It Be Magic." Oh this one is soooo good! And he's up! and wigglin' all over the stage! Holy cow! The crowd is goin' wild! This clip alone is worth the price of the video. There is also a high-energy version of "I'm Your Man".Barry looks great in this one. The London crowd obviously LOVES Barry. He gives 120 % and they give it right back to him in applause. The musical and vocal accompaniment is also great. This is a high-energy performance and a great DVD to have. Ok. I'm going to bed now. It's midnight. Whew! Whaddahperformance! Whaddahshowman. Whaddahguy! Goodnight Chet. Goodnight John Boy. Goodnight Barry.

The date of this production was 1993 and Barry Manilow looked like he did in the 70's only better. This production was just breath-taking in the fast pace of song changes and dance routines and costumes. Barry looked delicious in his Levy jeans. I really think his body looks its best in the Levy jeans in whatever set he is doing. His jackets are beautiful but his body loves those lean jeans. He can wear suit gear on top but his body and movement just appears fluid when he is wearing jeans. He has splendid taste in suits and shirts and jackets and moves so elegantly as he struts around singing and dancing but he just simply needs jeans to express his "Devine" vocal notes of love for his audiences who devour his pure throaty and powerful messages.I have purchased quite a few of his DVDs but this one is my favorite. I put it on when I need a lift. I plan on buying some of his older productions but this one seems to be one of his very best. If you have never bought a Manilow DVD this is the one to own. You will never sell it. It is just timeless. I am glad that I bought it. I just know it will be one to keep.

I was happy to see that this was on DVD at a decent price, since some places are charging over $100 for it, since I wore out my VHS copy of this. However a few glitches- after "Weekend In New England," the video freezes but the audio continues. You have to stop the video then hit play for it to resume. The video quality is fuzzy at times, but not that it's unwatchable. DID NOT know this was an import, so that worried me about being able to play on my player. For the price, I am happy with it, but the glitch was annoying and wished the product was better video quality over, but that's the label's problem.

We have always like this show. We have it on VHS and bought this DVD to update our collection. The only reason I did not give it 5 stars is because there is a glitch in the DVD. When you are playing it the whole way through when the song Weekend in New England ends and Can't Smile Without You starts the video part breaks up. You have to stop the DVD and then hit play and everything is fine. We had bought this DVD before from another supplier and when it did this we sent it back thinking we just had the bad luck of getting a defective DVD. This new one did the same thing at the same spot so it must be a defect in the recording of the DVD. If you can overlook the glitch it is still a great show.

I really like this Manilow presentation And this is a second copy I have purchased because it is not a new one. *** THERE IS ONE FLAW WITH EVERY COPY OF THIS DVD-BOTH MY COPIES HAVE THIS FLAW & MY ORIGINAL IS ALMOST 10 YEARS OLD: WHEN JUST PLAYING BACK ALL SONGS NORMALLY, THERE IS ONE POINT AREA WHERE THIS DISC WILL FREEZE & STICK ONLY IN THE VIDEO BUT THE AUDIO & MUSIC CONTINUE TO MOVE FORWARD- RIGHT AFTER "WEEKEND IN NEW ENGLAND" AND STICKS VISUALLY JUST BEFORE "CAN'T SMILE WITHOUT YOU". JUST SLIGHTLY ANNOYING, BUT ALL YOU HAVE TO DO IS BACK SKIP TO "WEEKEND" AND FORWARD SKIP TO "CAN'T SMILE" AND THE REST ALL PLAYS NORMALLY. If YOU PICK JUST INDIVIDUAL SONGS, ALL PLAY PERFECTLY. STILL A FAVORITE DVD.

DVD wasn't grea picture thought it a bit hazy. Wasnt as good as I thought it would be

Excellent DVD

A great show to watch had the video but it was past its best saw his greatest hits tour live one of the best

Fantastic show with loads of his hit's and Barry at his best!

Dieses Video ist ein MUß für jeden Barry Fan.Er ist ein großer Entertainer des Showgeschäfts und dies Spiegelt sich auch in diesem Video wieder. Man sieht wie er die Massen zum Kochen bringt und wie seine Fan's seine Texte auswendig kennen.Sch on wie er am Anfang die Treppe herunter kommt flippen die Massen schon aus.Man merkt das dieser Star in seinen Liedern aufgeht und für seine Fan's da ist.Es sind viele Showeinlagen drin und natürlich sein berühmter Hüftschwung.Was mir immer wieder auffällt ist seine Witzige Art, aber ob er Privat auch so ein Spaßvogel ist weiß nur er.Was mich traurig stimmt, daß es keinen Fan Club in Deutschland gibt.
