Motown's greatest Writers/Singers/Aian't no Mountain High!
D. R. Bell | Dayton, Ohio | 03/03/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"Boy this DVD is hot, Nick and Val look and sound so good, they do a lot of my favorite songs on this dvd, the crowd really gets into there performance, they sound so good, I'm glad they came out with a dvd that shows there true showmenship, I have another concert of theres that came out in the eary 90's that was a little better, but its not on dvd, but if you can get it on VHS, get it, its better then this one but if you can't, you won't go wrong with this one Ashford and Simpson is one of the best song writers Motown have ever had. They wrote Diana Ross best album tod date, Diana Ross The Boss, the produce all the songs on Diana Ross's album, nobody can write any better for Miss Ross then Ashford and Simpson, If you like Ashford and Simpson, you will love this dvd! Get it now, you won't be sorry, you will be glad you did, I wish Motown still had them around, and I hope Diana Ross will get back with then, besides Chic, nobody else can write better songs for Miss Diana Ross, they know how to write songs for her, to me when the produced Diana Ross album The Boss, that song and lp was Diana's second best LP, they also did Diana Ross first solo LP, Miss Ross get these two love birds back writeing for you, they write and sing the best love songs, so Ashford and Simpson fan's get this dvd you will be glad you did.

"I watched this DVD tonight for the first time and felt like I was right there with them. Nick and Val looked good and sounded great, and the band was tiiight. And when Freddie Jackson ad libbed on Ain't Nothing Like The Real Thing, that was the icing on the cake! This DVD is a MUST HAVE for Nick and Val fans. You won't be disappointed."
Next Best Thing To Being There!

"The CD is great, but actually WATCHING a concert is better than just listening to it. The DVD also includes four songs from "Invisible Life." It's nice to finally hear some NEW Ashford & Simpson music! I also like hearing what they have to say between songs. The only thing wrong with the DVD is that it makes me want to be in the audience, not just watching the show on a TV screen. I never had as much fun at a concert as I did the two times I saw A&S. This one is a little different, but still GREAT. I also enjoyed watching the two interviews included on the DVD."
THE THRILL IS STILL HOT HOT HOT HOT HOT

"How do they STAY FREE after 34 years of marriage, they are still SOLID. It sure doesnt show on nic's face. This is the only dvd featuring Ashford and Simpson. I have one bootleg showcase from 84, when they were on a real stage and had room to move instead of a 70 seat informal setting. Buy this to see Nic and Val without spending a fortune. Their bio answers all the top questions..like how Nic came to write I'm Every Woman.. veryy interesting..I'd know you anywhere and I will CHERISH AND ADORE this dvd for always. Some people may not like them at this age as much as back in the day..BUT IT COMES WITH THE PACKAGE..EVERY THING YOU SEE. Also the Micheal Mcdonald and friends dvd features Nic and Val in leather for those avid fans as myself.
