Reviews Customer Reviews for Sade Live Concert Home Video      A Fun Night in San Diego      Rating:      This live San Diego concert cannot to be missed by any Sade fan. This is the best of her live concert footage, capturing the music and the artist better than other efforts. You can just feel the excitement of being there in this lavishly produced concert film that brings both the music and the unique relationship of Sade to her loyal fans to the forefront. It is a performance bare of costume changes and pyrotechnics, as it is just about the music we love, giving it an intimacy in spite of the large venue. Sade has never been lovelier and her vocals are surrounded by bass, horns, and precussion from fine jazz musicians like horn player Rick Braun. You get seventeen songs here and yet you're sorry when it ends. It is worth noting that this band has stayed together during years of absence by Sade herself, an integrity and loyalty displayed in a business without any. It is the same kind of relationship she has with her fans. Late in the concert Sade leans down and accepts roses from one of those fans. No one tries to rush the stage and grab her and she gives the fan a gentle kiss as a thank you, in a day and age where your not suppose to. It is a classy moment from a classy woman. There is a particularly intimate moment where Sade sets down and speaks of a personal encounter with a man in a New York bar who told her his story of love and war which became the haunting "Like a Tattoo." Though deeply felt songs such as this one are scattered throughout, the overall feel of the concert is upbeat and fun. Exotic rhythms take you from sandy shores to romantic nightclubs and a happy feeling embraces the viewer like arms of love surrounding them and singing them a lullaby. This San Diego concert is the best one out there, and a wonderful reminder to fans of why we fell in love with this singer and her band, and why we will continue to support Sade no matter how much time elapses between albums.     Customer Reviews for Sade Live Concert Home Video Cd      Sweet as Cherry Pie, wild as Friday night!!      Rating:      It really DOESN'T get any better than this. Sure, Sade is cool, but she's a little wild, too. A lot of talented, professional people put this DVD together, capped off by the musicians, who are simply fabulous. Every aspect is musically brilliant, I think: writing, vocals, drums, piano, sax, guitar, bass, percussion and last, but by no means least, trumpet. And the "cherry" on top of the sundae is Sade. Okay, I'm going to stop gushing, now. By the way, I don't believe T. Brown is any musician. Editorial Reviews for Sade Live Concert Home Video Audio Cd      Amazon.com      This impressive record of Sade's 1994 live peformances reminds us of just how much her distinctive sound combines languorously emotional pop with lightweight but musically fulfilling cocktail jazz. As fine as the voice is, we can never forget that Sade's backing band are sidemen rather than mere accompanists, and in several of the 18 numbers here we get solos of real virtuosity. The selection of songs includes many of Sade's hits--"Cherry Pie," "Smooth Operator," "Your Love Is King"--and some less well-known songs from the albums, such as "Red Eye" and "Jezebel." --Roz Kaveney, Amazon.co.uk
