live dvd/v concerts


Love watching live dvd concerts on my big screen and 5.1.......problem is that many are sonically lousy recordings...ie...Genesis....Moody Blues(Hall of Fame)......Some are GREAT! i.e.Eagles(HFO)....Steely Dan(2vN)...Sting....Natalie Cole....etc.....Anybody got any other good ones that they feel are sonically above-average?.....Or which ones to steer clear of?

I find myself less worried about the sound quality on concert DVDs as the video fills in some of the energy and takes one's mind off analyzing the sound. Still, great sound is welcomed.

Some of my favorites:

U2 - Live in Boston - the best produced DVD I've seen
NIN - All That Could Have Been - Fabulous! Deep low end.
Peter Gabriel - Growing Up - A lot of fun
Talking Heads - Stop Making Sense
Led Zeppelin's latest - decent sound, very historic

There are others that I'd agree the sound / production is pretty bad, but enjoyable nonetheless. I hope we continue to see DVD concerts produced - I really enjoy them on the system.
