Editorial Review:
Description: Bruce Springsteen With The Sessions Band Live in Dublin' features 23 songs drawn from the band's performances in Dublin, Ireland at The Point on November 17, 18 and 19, 2006. Songs include fan favorites from 'The Seeger Sessions,' radical interpretations from the Springsteen songbook and rare songs appearing for the first time on any Springsteen release. The DVD captures the band during the finale of its multi-leg 2006 tour. The Word Magazine (UK) said of a concert on this tour, 'I have never, make that NEVER, seen a show better than the one mounted by Bruce Springsteen and his (Sessions) band.' The Washington Post declared, 'It was the best live show I've seen in at least five years. (And I've seen a few.)' Documented with nine cameras, the concert was filmed in High Definition (HD).

I'm a fan of folk music and classic Springsteen but it was a chore to sit through this DVD. No one can question the musical skill or energy of this performance. The engineering production was also very good.
But the performance was conceptually flawed in my opinion. Most of the folk tunes would have sounded better solo or with a minimal accompaniment. Instead we get a huge band with a huge sound that seemed out of place to me. Simple tunes can easily lose their simple charm under ... Read More
Rating: - A great performance
This Blu-Ray DVD is a joy and view and to listent to. Unlike some performance DVD's Bruce and Dublin Session band are fun to watch. Everyone is having a great time and performance is rock solid. Now this is NOT the E Street Band. They perform a few songs from the E Street Band catalog but the majority is from the Seeger sessions and other solo material. So if you expecting an E Street Band type of performance your going to in for a surprise. I enjoy seeing Bruce stretch out and he's obviously having ... Read More

I have ever enjoyed.
