Movie Reviews of The Jazz Channel Presents Earl Klugh

Movie Review: Finest Quality DVD Audio Mix - Great Musicians
Summary: 5 Stars

This DVD is one of THE BEST audio recordings/mixes I have on DVD. The only other one's that compare are Eric Clapton's "One More Car, One More Rider" - DTS and Norah Jones Live - DD5.1. I can crank up this Earl Klugh DVD and it just sounds better! The mix is wonderful. Drums are nice and full in the mix (as with Clapton's) and Bass guitar and lead acoustic guitar are also clean and in the right proportion. Plus the musicians are just top-notch...particularly Klugh, the drummer, and the saxaphone player. WOW. Effortless yet highly technical playing.

My only complaint is the obligitory crowd shots which are mostly way too dark (almost a completely black screen). What was the point? Otherwise the video is also excellent with good lighting, color, and detail. Should be 16:9 aspect ratio, of course, but most companies haven't figured this out yet! I wish they all would. The good news is you can jump right to the menu and skip the intro's, and the menu is simple static graphics, so you aren't waiting for some lame animation each time before you can navigate. That is something all the companies could also learn!

If you love music and are even somewhat picky about audio, you will LOVE THIS DVD! PERIOD!
