Product: Classic Albums: The Band - The Band (1997)
Rating: 5.0
Unbelievable. Essential for every fan.
If you have even a passing interest in the Band, then buy this immediately. This presents them-and their genius-in an all new and more profound light. While their songs always sound fresh through the many years since they were first recorded, this DVD is like listening to them in remastered stereo for the first time, with exquisite headphones.The only weakness that I can see is that so many current groups, as well as musician at the time, were directly influenced by this album. This version of Classic Albums doesn't capture the historical significance of this album, concentrating more on its production and aesthetics. But who cares? This is a celebration of their music and one of the greatest albums of the rock era.
