A very high quality video, well done in all aspects.

"I was very impressed with how sharp the video is, and how well this video is filmed, edited, and produced. Not only is Frankie's singing performance memorable, but to hear the 14 piece band is also memorable. Wow, what a band! The piano player provides the most brilliant fills at just the right moments. Early in "That Lucky Old Sun", there is a sax fill so sweetly on key and brilliantly done that it sounds heavenly; and, of course, Frankie really shines on this song and the applause at the end of the song is such that Frankie breaks into that all-consuming radiating "Frankie Laine grin" as he appears to reflect the audiences love for him right back to them. This one performance is easily worth the cost of this DVD, but you get so much more. The song list is...

1. Come Back To Me
2. Lovestory
3. Rawhide
4. That Lucky Old Sun
5. Feelings
6. Jealousy
7. Dream A Little Dream Of Me
8. Your Cheating Heart
9. You're The Best Thing That Ever Happened To Me
10. Wrap Your Troubles In Dreams
11. Lord, You Gave Me A Mountain
12. Jezebel

Frankie is remembered as such a prince of a guy, and a great singer, it's no wonder that on his 80th birthday the United States Congress declared him to be a national treasure."
