"I'm really sorry for this guy saying that Frankie should refuse to do such concerts as Hammersmith when he has a a flew or something that could alterate his voice or his reputation of genious : this DVD is worth it and thanks God Frankie did not refuse to do this London concert ! Of course, it's not "Live at New Orleans" or "L.A"... but it's ten years after ! It's not as incredible as New Orleans because to have beautiful concerts like N.O, you have to have less incredible concerts, such as this Hammersmith show. Fred Astaire was not a genious in all his films. Above all, this DVD is more "euro style", more "cosy", "easy listening" style than N.O or L.A.
I guess that's what Frankie and his crew wanted to do and show in London. This "Live" is more "smooth", more "lounge", more "electronik", less "massive", les "soul or funk or R & B" than the Live in N.O or in L.A. The Maze band show anyways that they are still united, dedicated, top of the line in termes of music - it' s good to here Maze with modern sounds -. Of course it looks like Frankie had a flew during this concert : so what ?!It also looks like the audience didn't give a d.... about that. All we want from Maze is : joy, happiness, raw soul, peace. Evething you will see and feel in this 2 hours concert. Last but not least, the sound is really really good."
