Summary: THE WOMACK 'LIVE"
Comment: Everybody else, take a lesson. Bobby Womack is in session. He came to "B.E.T and showed how to captivate an audience for an hour. He talked, he sang and he played. New Jacks, take a lesson.

Comment: I think Bobby Womack is one sexy brother. I always liked his song "A Woman Got To Have It", but of course I was born in 1961. Watching this concert made me realize what I had been missing. I have watched this live concert atleast 10 times already. He is my mid-night fire on Friday nights after all long working week.

Summary: Disappointed
Comment: There are two issues here. (1)The editorial review claims on the songlist "Harry Hippie" as one of the offerings on this DVD.
This is not so, and bearing in mind that I purchased same for that song more than anything else I feel cheated as I was looking forward to seeing bobby perform same.Someone owes me an apology and a refund.(2)Having said that I think the performance was good in general but Mr. Womack spoke too much thus detracting from an otherwise captivating performance.

Summary: Did I watch something these other folks didn't here?
Comment: I review concerts and erotic films....sometimes I review normal films too...
But I happen to know a quality show when I see one on DVD...and this was not one! I love the music of Mr. Womack and have many of his original records...and CD's.
That being said....I expected so much more from this live show recorded off of BET televison. This was not one of his best perfomances I am sure. I was disappointed by his lack of professionalism performing some of his biggest hit songs.
Most people go to see a live show to hear the songs (in basic form) the original way an artist once recorded it. Performers like the Eagles, Boz Scaggs, Tom Jones, Luther Vandross to name a few...deliver on that important performing aspect sounding like the "original version". Mr. Womack did a poor job of making me believe he wanted to be there singing that night....he seemed to rather sit down and chat with the audience about his long career...instead of concentrating on singing really well. His voice cut out on him many times and sounded powerless....he butchured much of his best material.
The sound quality of this DVD was just average as well....I was highly disappointed by it for many reasons....you may be too!
