 Interviews in middle of the songs?
Why do they put interviews in middle of the songs? (In three of thee songs, if I remember correct) Good show all in all. I´m buying the VHS now, because it dosen´t involve the interviews I beleve.

I purchased this because I love the Allman Brothers Band, especially with Woody and Warren, but this DVD dose not capture that era proficiantly. The footage is great but take serious warning, despite not being a complete show, which should be obvious from the get go, blue sky is none exsistent on the dvd title, despite its listing on the back cover. But, what is really the most terrible ting about this release is that during elizabeth reed and Revival, several time the screan spilts, the audio drops, and you have to listen to members of the band talking over the music. While I appreciate what a band has to say about their music, i don't want to hear it during the music, but either at the end of the DVD or as a option i can choose from in the menue. From what I've read now on several sites the VHS copie of this show is differant and without interveiws inturpting the music and that it is longer then the DVD release. In the end as much as I love the Allman Brothers Band, this a release that you can ultimately skip, find the bootleg of the old VHS copie at a good record store, but skip this dvd release, I assure as good as the songs that are not interupted you ultimetly be disapointed. Also it is not 90 mins, its only about 60 minutes long, and Whipping post is terribly incomplete, its only about 3 minutes long and the credits play over it.

 A GOOD SELECTION OF SONGS
Despite talking through some of the songs,the songs sound well done and sharp. If they would release the DVD minus the interviews during the songs this would get a five instead of a three,in my opinion.

 HUGE DISAPPOINTMENT
The VHS of this concert is outstanding. The DVD is a ripoff. If the Allman Brothers care about their fans they should reissue this in the VHS format and give refunds to the people who bought this piece of garbage.
