Dwight Yoakam - Live From Austin Tx

 (20 customer reviews)

First off, this concert was recorded in late 1988 for a TV show called Austin City Limits. That makes this performance almost 18 years old... and it shows. Dwight is only twenty-something and the picure quality of the disc looks about right for a TV show of its great age. The sound on the DVD is excellent! All of Yoakam's classic songs have never sounded better! I must say that Yoakam and company are very mellow and relaxed on the stage at Austin. It is not by any means a wild "rock the house" concert at all. This DVD is a showcase for Yoakam's voice and songwriting... not a show for hyperactive country fans of todays modern sound. This is Dwight's FIRST CONCERT DVD so it is a Must Have for any fan that's followed him for any amount of time. I hope Dwight's fan base will buy this DVD up so that more updated and modern(recent)Dwight Concerts can find a place in todays music DVD market.

I THINK DWIGHT YOKAM NEEDS TO DO MORE LIVE DVD'S. I'VE LISTENED TO HIS MUSIC FOR MANY YEARS AND HE JUST KEEPS GETTING BETTER WITH AGE. THIS SHOW FEATURES SOME OF HIS EARLIER MUSIC. I THINK HIS MUSIC FROM 1989 TO THE PRESENT IS EVEN BETTER, SO WE'LL HAVE TO WAIT FOR A FOLLOW UP CONCERT.

The clarity made it seem as if we were watching it on Satellite and not on cable! We were very impressed at the quality of the DVD for the price. We are so glad we bought it!
