Editorial Review:
In April 2007, Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds embarked on a 3-city theatre tour, culminating with a performance in the intimate confines of Radio City Music Hall in New York City. Due to the smaller sized venues and extremely limited number of dates, tickets were practically impossible to get, making this new 2 disc Blu-ray set all the more desirable to the huge Dave Matthews Band fanbase. LIVE AT RADIO CITY marks the first time in almost ten years that Dave and Tim have released an album. Their last album was the wildly successful, multi-platinum LIVE AT LUTHER COLLEGE. This is the first-ever Blu-ray Disc released by the duo. LIVE AT RADIO CITY features over 2 1/2 hours of music, capturing all 26 songs of Dave and Tim's performance. The performance includes numerous songs that have never been recorded by the two, including Crush, Grace Is Gone, Don t Drink The Water, Gravedigger and many more.

Description of Dave Matthews & Tim Reynolds: Live at Radio City Music Hall [Blu-ray]:
Socialites in the Hamptons paid up to $15,000 for the privilege of seeing this duo in action just a few weeks before the release of Live at Radio City Music Hall. Not that it was any easier to get tickets to the April 22, 2007, concert in New York that produced this recording, available on CD or DVD with high-definition 5.1 surround sound and an additional 46-minute film of backstage footage. The acoustic set features the veteran musicians performing for nearly two-and-a-half hours--and you get the feeling they could have easily kept going. Reynolds gets his solo turn on "Betrayal" and "You Are My Sanity," but it's a chatty Matthews who seems to be relishing the occasion more, stripping down some of his band's most popular songs ("Lie in Our Graves," "Two Step") while giving the fans a sneak peek at a couple of its new ones ("Eh Hee," "Cornbread"). The guy's even thrown in a few covers for kicks, including Neil Young's "Down by the River" and Daniel Lanois' "The Maker." In terms of audio quality and packaging, it marks a vast improvement over the pair's first release, 1999's Live at Luther College. And the best part is that it doesn't cost more than a yacht. --Aidin Vaziri

Wonderful! 
2009-08-26 - This is a review for the blu-ray edition.
I've never been a big Dave Matthews fan and I've only heard [of] Tim Reynolds a few times. Watching this concert made me really appreciate the amount of talent and passion for music they both have.
Audio quality is superb. The concert comes with 3 sound options: TrueHD 5.1, Dolby 5.1, and PCM stereo. I'm partial to stereo tracks, and therefore the PCM 2.0 on this disc, but the TrueHD track was also very impressive. You may as well not even bother with the Dolby 5.1 track. Video quality is also very good, but I wouldn't have cared either way - they nailed the audio on this disc and, to me, that's what's important for a concert.
auditioned 
2009-07-19 - Well, I should have bought it cd version instead of the blu ray. This is only me personal comment, to save some cash. Im sure the cd version's audio part is just as good its blu ray disk version.
Awesome ! 
2009-07-09 - I wanted to showcase my Home Theatre and I never got the perfect blend of audio and picture until now. This Blu-Ray shines. The picture is crystal clear and the audio and indescribable. I love this concert on DVD Blu-Ray. I was using the EAgles DVD, Hell freezes over to showcase my system. It was good but it was not HD audio , this is and the difference is hugh.
Fabulous uncompressed audio demo, killer picture 
2009-07-02 - I have a decent collection of BluRay titles and this is one that I most frequently demo. The sound quality is crystal clear, with so much detail that you truly are there. The picture quality is also fabulous, with much detail even in the dark areas. Highly recommended.
