Richard Thompson Live From Austin
Guitar Tab
Richard Thompson - Live from Austin, TX
"This is the DVD that Richard Thompson's fans have been anxiously awaiting for decades."
The sound (especially for those with DTS systems) is fantastic, the song choices perfect, the picture quality is great, and, of course, this particular trio is one of the greatest in folk-rock history.
If you're debating between this and the Live in Providence DVD, by all means go with this one. Sure, we all love the great Pete Zorn, but the legendary Danny Thompson (unfortunately absent from the 2003 tour, and therefore the Providence DVD) makes this show transcendent. Of course, Richard Thompson fans should own both (the extras on the Providence DVD alone are worth the price). Whether familiar with Richard Thompson's work or not, anyone who appreciates great songwriting, and/or great, innovative guitar playing should own this one. I couldn't be happier with this release.
"There are more love songs than anything else. If songs could make you do something we'd all love one another." ~ Frank Zappa
