"This is must have for any fan of Mr. Betts, the Allman Brothers,or general rock fan. The Rockpalast 78 concert is a real gem, showcasing Mr. Betts & The Great Southern at the top of their game. The majority of the songs are from the "Atlanta's Burning Down" album and sound much better live than Arista Record's stiffly recorded album. Mr. Betts' version of Liz Reed, Jessica and especially High Falls have significant jazz influence and are a real treat!"

A very good DVD

"I have a bad quality copy of this concert, so when this
concert was released on DVD I decided to buy it
and i'm not dissapointed at all: The quality of the
images are fair good for being +30 years and the sound
is very good."

Great '78 disc, bad '08 disc

"The 1978 disc is a must have for any fan. Great camera work and sound. The 2008 disc could have been great however the video editing which flashes one second clips through the whole concert makes it unbearable to watch. Whoever thinks that this what people want have their head up their behind."
