Not since the legendary performances by Simon & Garfunkel and later Garth Brooks has there been as big an event in New York's beloved Central Park as the AOL-sponsored 2003 Dave Matthews concert. The DMB had spent the last decade cementing its iconic status, so this was a major happening attended by hordes of faithful followers. Though Matthews would soon after take a break from the band to explore other musical areas, he and his longtime cohorts Boyd Tinsley, Carter Beauford, et al, tear it up with the easy confidence of skilled veterans.
Though much of this three-disc set is appropriately taken up with the DMB's trademark amalgam of funk, pop, rock, and jazz, Dave and the boys do mix things up a bit. Allman Brothers/Gov't Mule guitarist Warren Hayes joins the band for a gritty, extended take on Neil Young's gauzy epic "Cortez the Killer," and Bob Dylan's "All Along the Watchtower" later becomes a springboard for a volcanic display of the instrumentalists' abilities. Of course, the band trots their hits out as well--"What Would You Say," "Ants Marching," and more--but THE CENTRAL PARK CONCERT paints a much wider picture of the Dave Matthews Band's sound.

 Even Better Live!!!
DMB is amazing. You hear studio versions of DMB songs and you think "this is really good", and then you hear them live and you get blown away. DMB is one of those bands who just "groove" when they are live and there is nothing else like it in the world. Altogether an unbelievable album.

Great concert band.
Some might dock the band down for the fact that some of the songs have been heard on concert CDs previously. It makes no difference on this one. Each song has its own little nuances, separate from any other moment. At times, it seems as though Dave is "in the zone," especially when doing his jibberish toward the end. I would say this is sort of a defining moment for the band, who just played lights-out.
