I got it at HMV last night - already watched it. It was a pretty solid performance. There was some mixing issues on occasion - but a really good blu-ray over all. Top Yourself was a particularily good performance IMO.

It has dts-hd, which is what I used. It sounded pretty good most of the time. Didn't try the stereo mode.

Thanks, I'm going to try both. I was hoping the DTSHDMA sounded good.chrono_1980 wrote:It has dts-hd, which is what I used. It sounded pretty good most of the time. Didn't try the stereo mode.

Re: DVD/BD: Live at Montreux 2008
I think the best deal on this was from Amazon. Got it on Monday but only got a chance to watch tonight--great show. (Though actually I thought last fall's shows were even better.) The camera-work and editing left something to be desired, though--Mark Watrous is great, but there's a limit to the number of closeups of his hands I want to see.

(sorry -- missed this before) Newbury Comics. New England chain. Used to have a one-guy store here I loved but it closed. Newbury's treated me really well since then.rsimms3 wrote:What local store?cmelo wrote:Local-store report!

Watched this today. Great blu ray pic quality is perfect and a solid performance if nothing unexpected.
Would love to hear the Racs version of Ugly As I seem Blackwell mentions on the liner notes. Would make a perfect future vault release.

Don't believe the 60's was the golden age of pop. You glorify the past when the future dries up.

Re: DVD/BD: Live at Montreux 2008
I absolutely enjoy this DVD, watched it 2 times already. That concert is just legendary, The Raconteurs have so much power, a perfect joint of great musicians. Sound and video of the recording is also superb.
I think it's great that they brought this out, I saw some short clips of the concert in some place, I think it was in the movie "It might get loud" and since then have been looking for good quality live recordings of the band. Sadly enough I haven't found much. This DVD really was a treat!
Regards.
