Last week I received Dale Watson's new DVD/CD Live @ Newland.NL. Excellent
The DVD and CD are seperate packages sold seperately, but they are the same material/recording.
As far as the DVD, it has wonderful film quality - nothing flashing - no light shows no special effects - just good quality shots of Dale and the Lone Stars doing their thing. The sound quality is also very nice.
The material is a good mix of newer material with a few of Dale's older tunes mixed in. Not a lot of repetition from the Live In London CD. The only two that come to mind are Real Country Song and Nashville Rash. This package includes nice live versions of Exit 109 with Herb's drum solo and Heaah, which really swings even without the horns.
IMO I think the difference between this new live recording and the Live In London is that the Live @ Newland has more of the Lone Stars cutting loose and showing off their chops. Lots of great playing from Don Don Pawlak. In regards to Don Don is that the camera shots of his solo work are sometimes too quick and short, but you can't miss Don Don's playing/sound all over the recording.
I highly recommend either the CD or the DVD. Dale's website sells them at a good price. Much cheaper than what they have been going for on Ebay. |

| I'm definitely going to get this one,have most of Dale's music.If there was any justice at all this man would be at the top of the charts constantly! Why is he not?Because he's too DAMN good for this &%$# they call country today.IMO he is the best honky-tonk,country artist we have today.If by chance any of you guys that are not familiar with him,and you love the REAL DEAL ,do yourself a favor and check him out. |

| By chance does he do any great stuff like "Red on a Rose"? Ha ha. I'll be buying this one my own self. Dale should be a BIG star. I see that Clear Channel was bought out last week, maybe there's hope yet. |

Bama Charlie is 100% on the money.Dale is so good and so REAL he goes beyond being a great country artist.Like Cash,Hag,Waylon,Willie,just great music,but still proud of his country roots.My money's on Dale Watson.
Cheers,Shane. |
