A Night at Red Rocks, taped in Colorado's gorgeous natural amphitheater in 1992, is an ambitious undertaking for these still-stomping rock dinosaurs: the classic Moody Blues lineup playing with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra and no safety net. The band rises to the occasion, giving fans a solid if sentimental survey of its long and prosperous career. The performances and the material vary in quality, but the group comes through where it counts. Hits like "The Voice," "The Story in Your Eyes," and "Nights in White Satin" sound great, as does "Question," the Moodys' greatest contribution to rock music. The Symphony plays well, but the group misses some prime opportunities to use it, adhering to synth parts where an orchestra would have worked nicely (most notably in the rocking "Gemini Dream"). There's no surround mix here, but band leaders Justin Haywood and John Lodge deserve kudos for their able sound mixing. --Michael Mikesell

Summary: Marvelous
Comment: This is THE DVD to have. It is great to see The Moody Blues play with the Colorado Symphony Orchestra. The interview bits clue you into just what goes into a production like that. What a great concert to have a record of. There is a companion DVD called "The Other Side Of Red Rocks" that includes the songs not on this DVD. A Legend of the Mind should have made the cut here though! The companion DVD is very hard to find, and usually is not in the US region. It would be wonderful if they would put the two together, so that you can have the full concert! But for now, this is a must have DVD!

Customer Rating:
Summary: If you like the Moody Blues this DVD is a Must Have!
Comment: I bought this DVD for my husband. He is a huge fan of the Moody Blues. We watched it together and we both absolutely loved it. The Canyon not only adds ambiance but the acoustics are amazing as well.The Orchestra is a beautiful touch and only enhances the singers. We truly enjoyed this DVD and will watch it repeatedly.

Summary: THE BEST VIDEO CONCERT ON DVD I'VE SEEN
Comment: I FIRST SAW THIS CONCERT ON PBS CH-13 IN NYC. I ALWAYS ENJOYED THE MOODY BLUES MUSIC. THIS IS A CHANCE FOR YOUNGER VIEWERS TO ENJOY THE 2ND GREAT BRITISH INVASION GROUP TO HIT THE US SINCE THE BEATLES. NOT TO COMPARE THE TWO GROUPS, THEY HAVE DIFERENT MUSIC STYLES. ONE THING IS CERTAIN, THOUGH THE WRITING OF THE ARTISTS: JUSTIN HAYWARD AND JOHN LODGE(PLAYS BASS AND ACOUSTIC GUITARS) IS SIMILAR. THEY WRITE THEIR OWN WORDS AND MUSIC LIKE JOHN AND PAUL. I SAW THEM IN CONCERT AT RADIO CITY MUSIC HALL HALL IN NYC 2 YEARS AGO. THEY CAME BACK THIS YEAR, BUT WAS UNABLE TO SEE THEM AGAIN. THIS DVD SHOWS THE TALENT OF THESE TWO GREAT MUSICIANS. JUSTIN WITH HIS OUTSTANDING GUITAR PLAYING. HE STILL USES A GIBSON GUITAR, THAT GEORGE HARRISON USED. JOHN WITH HIS LOWER VOICE AND GREAT BASS PLAYING. THEY HAVE AGED IN THEIR APPEARANCE, BUT NOT THEIR DEDICATION TOWARDS GIVING THE FANS A GREAT SHOW. YOU CANNOT WATCH THIS DVD WITHOUT GETTING UP AND DANCING, EVEN IF YOU DO NOT KNOW THE WORDS. IF YOU ARE YOUNGER THAN YOUR 40'S, FORGET ABOUT IT, ONLY IF YOUR PARENTS PLAYED THEIR MUSIC YOU CAN APPRECIATE WHAT GOOD MUSIC IS ABOUT. I DID NOT FOGET THE ELDER RAY THOMAS WHO I DID NOT SEE AT RADIO CITY. HE PLAYED THE HORN SECTION WHEN THEY WERE YOUNGER. WISH THERE WERE MORE SONGS ON THE DVD. I HAVE THE CD ALSO. MY AUNT WHO IS IN HER 70'S CAN'T UNDERSTAND ENGLISH VERY WELL, BUT I GAVE HER THE TAPE, CAUSE SHE LOVED HOW CLEAN THEIR MUSIC WAS, NOT TO MENTION THEIR ATTIRE. LISTEN FOR NIGHTS IN WHITE SATIN, TUESDAY AFTERNOON, GEMINNI DREAM, FOR MY LADY, LEAN ON ME(JOHN LODGE)I READ THAT JUSTIN HAYWARD HAD A COLD OR SOMETHING, YOU WOULD NEVER NOTICE IT, I DIDN'T. THIS DVD IS WORTH BUYING TO ANY BRITISH INVASION FAN, OR ANY PERSON THAT LOVES GOOD MUSIC AND CONCERTS. ALSO, KUDOS TO GRAEME EDGE THE MOODIES DRUMMER AND THE WOMEN BACKUP SINGERS. I HOPE THIS HELPS. THANK YOU
