Sisters Ann and Nancy Wilson and the rest of Heart are in good form in this solid if unspectacular 100-minute concert video, shot in 2002 in their hometown of Seattle. The sisters, of course, are a good deal older than in Heart's '70s heyday, and their bandmates have changed, but the group's sound, led by Ann's powerful vocals and Nancy's instrumental versatility, hasn't changed much; that's a good thing for those who revel in the likes of "Barracuda," "Magic Man," and other oldies. There are several brand-new songs here as well, and the ongoing influence of Led Zeppelin is readily apparent, not only in the covers of Zep classics like "Black Dog" and "The Battle of Evermore" but also in Heart's commingling of pastoral acoustic sounds and hard rock. And after 19 songs, even the most ardent Heart lovers should be well satisfied. --Sam Graham

Heart combines elements of classic rock, alternative, and perhaps a touch of hard-hitting metal, from a feminine perspective. With surprisingly fine covers of the classic Led Zepplin hits "Battle of Evermore" and "Black Dog", this long-time Led Zeppelin fan was more than pleased not only with the genuine effort Heart puts into these songs, but also the respect and esteem with which they seem to hold these songs. Although I am not a fan of Elton John per se, I have always enjoyed "Mona Lisas and Madhatters" and the ladies cover it admirably as well, although none of these would find their way into my iTunes rotation over the originals. Despite several covers, the only material with which I was familiar on this disc, I cannot help but be somewhat impressed by Heart. No, they'll never be my favorite band, but their uptempo beat and high energy level, not to mention the crisp, lovely vocals of lead singer Ann and the impressive guitar playing of sister Nancy makes Heart: Alive in Seattle a fantastic disc for established fans and, at the price, worth buying for newcomers to the band.
Blu-ray in a 1080i high definition presentation and framed at a 1.78:1 aspect ratio. The show looks just fine for a presentation of this nature. From the glossy, glittery drum set as seen in the background to the finer nuances of the stitching in Ann's shirt, fine detail, both up front and in the rear of the stage, stands out as moderately strong. The sound quality is excellent, and is yet ... Read More

First of all, this recording of Heart concert was excellent. The blu-ray version is a 1080i resolution but the videos/picture quality is excellent. Sound recording was also excellent. Heart performances was very good, especially there is a segment where they only played string instruments. A must have for Heart fans.

If you like Heart get it.
So far this is the best produced Blu-ray concert I've seen, heard or owned.

Wow! Just wow! Ann Wilson has a pair of lungs and a voice that are unmatched for raw power and precision, and the years haven't diluted it a bit. There's more talent between these two sisters than any five other rock bands combined, and it all shows in this amazing blu-ray disk. I challenge anyone to find me any other band (especially one full of people past the age of 40 or 50!) that can out-Zeppelin Zeppelin-in-their-prime. This is a must-have disk for any serious music fan's collection.
