Customer Reviews Beautiful Voice - Beautiful Lady This disc has multiple play modes: 1) DTS track for discrete 5. I've always liked Olivia's sweet voice and have several of her albums so when I saw that this live performance had been produced by DTS Entertainment, I jumped on it. 1 channel sound for which a DTS decoder is required. 2) Dolby Digital 5. 1 that will play in any DVD player (even in the car!) 3) DVD-Audio track that produces a high-definition audio experience. The DVD-Audio track is recorded in MPL lossless 5. 1 surround which requires a DVD-Audio compatible player. While the package does not state the sampling frequency used in this rendition, the norm for DVD-Audio is 96 kHz as opposed to 44. 1 kHz for a standard CD. This disc gets 5 stars just for the technical execution. Olivia is brilliant as always with her vocals in extraordinary shape. In this concert she performed a great variety of her best-loved songs and even included a couple from the Grease soundtrack. A wonderful addition to any audiophile's collection and highly recommended. . This star SHINES! Could it REALLY be that much better than CD--enough to cost more? Well, if this recording is any indication, the answer is YES. I was a bit skeptical about DVD Audio. LIke others have said already, Olivia is in fine form. I used to have a television special with Olivia and remembered how much I liked her singing live. Here she blows me away again--20+ years later. I am amazed by how CLEAR this recording is. Every instrument is distinct and brilliant. In surround sound, I swear it sounds like you're sitting on the edge of the stage. I have the "Back to Basics" CD with many of these songs on it, but I think this recording is TONS better. Now, if only I could get a DVD VIDEO of this concert!. A Concert worth Reliving The woman is pure "Magic" throughout, connecting with her audience in a way that very few artists do. Olivia in Concert is better than Olivia on CD any day, and this CD proves why. The astaunding thing about this artist is that she appeals across generations, from older fans whose children adored her growing up, to the youngest of kids who still think of Livvy as Sandy in "Grease. " Her pipes are perfectly pitched STILL, and there has never been a better showcase of her pure talent than this Journey. A terrific addition to any music collection. .
