I purchased this for a gift but I have not given it away yet. I am fighting the strong urge to keep it for myself. It is a good thing to have in a collection.

Saw this show live. It was fantastic! Extra CD is worth getting, though rather pricey compared to DVD only version.

As my tittle saying, this is the best live choice of songs in one concert. Great birthday athmosphere has made from that something more than just a concert. Also bonuses are good stuff here. I am a longtime Elton John fan, but I am very surprised with this CD/DVD after all those former "official live releases". Elton is still full of energy, no matter how old he is. After seeng him in a concert one have a new reason and taste to live.
If You are looking for great piano-pop/rock full of live energy, that's the way you have to go! Amazing art of Elton's balads and his energic rock stuff is something what You have to see and hear more often then sometimes. Hovever - better list of songs during one Elton John show has never been recorded before.

This DVD has to rate among My favorite EJ concerts! It was wonderful to hear something other than just His
"mega-hits" And I swear that If I could have written His set list Myself, I wouldn't have changed a song !!
The sound and beauty of this concert has to be seen on a big screen and heard on a good stereo system, turn it up and enjoy !!!

Unlike arty and bombastic visual spectacles of artists like U2, REM or Pink Floyd, an Elton John concert on video is a pretty pedestrian affair. Always has been, and "Elton At 60" is no different. Having said that, Elton connects with his songs, leaving lights and other optic doo-dads to serve as mere window dressing for the words and melodies he and lyricist, Taupin, have crafted for 40 years. This show was recorded in March 2007 to mark Elton's 60th birthday, and his sixtieth show at Madison Square Garden in New York. An Elton concert doesn't quite have the pep and fire of show he did even ten years ago, but the result is a performance that more closely mirrors the pacing of the album version of these songs. In THREE and A HALF hours, most of ... Read More:
