Editorial Review:
Amazon.com:
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

Rating:  - Marvelous
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.

Rating: - Great
I always wanted to see the Mooody Blues in Concert at Red Rocks.
This is absolutely wonderful. I was singing along.
If you are a Mooody Blues fan, I would suggest to purchase this one.
Enjoy
Rating: - The Moody Blues Night at Red Rocks with Colorado Symphony
Absolutely fantastic. You don't need to be a Boody Blues fan to enjoy great music in a breathtaking venue
Rating: - If you like the Moody Blues this DVD is a Must Have!
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.
Rating: - THE BEST VIDEO CONCERT ON DVD I'VE SEEN
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 ... Read More
