Movie Reviews of Rickie Lee Jones - Live at the Wiltern Theatre

Movie Review: increible
Summary: 5 Stars

Es una verdadera lastima que grabaciones como esta ya no puedan conseguirse. Atesoro este DVD como un avido coleccionista, y cada vez que lo he compartido, la reaccion de quien lo ve, no importa la edad o el gusto muscal es la misma.
Todo es de altisimo nivel, destacando como una de las mejores canciones que he "visto" en mi vida a Coolsville. No solo Rickie es fantastica , el solo de saxo toca mi corazon. Todo el grupo, muy especialmente saxo y bajo, merece estar en ese concierto. Traten de hacerse de uno, a como de lugar...

Summary of Rickie Lee Jones - Live at the Wiltern Theatre

Rickie Lee Jones serves up her funky, jazzy pop in electric style at the intimate Wiltern Theatre in Los Angeles. Backed by a six piece band, Jones performs a baker's dozen of eclectic hits, misses, covers and originals. Songs: Bye Bye Blackbird, Makin' Whoopee, It Must Be Love, The Last Chance Texaco, Up From the Skies, Dat Dere, I Won't Grow Up, Don't Like Goodbye, We Belong Together, Coolsville, Easy Money, The Moon is Made of Gold, Love is Gonna Bring Us Back Alive.
A low-key, unadorned, and unaffected glimpse of a 1992 concert, Rickie Lee Jones: Live at the Wiltern Theatre is visually indistinct and unremarkable, lit only with a blue light that's appropriate to the bluesy, soulful songs that Jones does best. As anyone who has followed her career knows, we aren't here for the decor; we're here to listen to her music and lyrics, which is precisely what Jones delivers. There's no polite banter in between tunes as she and her backup band breeze through a resum? of 13 songs, six composed by Jones and pulled primarily from her first two albums. She also flirts and cajoles with her audience on a playful riff of "Makin' Whoopee" and Jimi Hendrix's "Up from the Skies." She turns in some jazzy scat on "Dat Dere" and some ska on "Love Is Gonna Bring Us Back Alive." While she certainly struts her stuff on other people's songs, the best is saved for her own compositions. Her work, amply on display throughout this hourlong show, includes "Coolsville," "Easy Money," "It Must Be Love," and "The Last Chance Texaco" as well as a gorgeous piano riff that opens "We Belong Together." These more than compensate for the minimalist milieu and lack of polite chat. When she soars through a quintessential Jones song, "Don't Like Goodbye," viewers won't much feel like saying goodbye either. --Paula Nechak
