Title: Elton at his best
Product review: Elton John has played Madison Square Garden more than any other artist in history and he clearly loves the venue; and the venue loves him. This is a great DVD -- sound and picture are exemplary. Comments about the length of the VHS do not pertain -- this is virtually the whole concert, although clearly not from just "One Night Only." (There two nights of shows.) The highlights of both nights are well represented, most notably, "Funeral for a Friend/Love Lies Bleeding,""Candle in the Wind,""Someone Saved my Life Tonight,""Rocket Man," and "Come Together," and the performances are powerful and vibrant. Two rarely played songs, "Club at the End of the Street" and "Little Jeannie" are remarkably fresh. Elton's piano prowess is clear as is the tightness of his veteran band, and the guests, especially Billy Joel and Mary J. Blige, are clearly paying homage to one of their mentors. This DVD is a must-have!!!
