Product Description

Filmed in January 2011 at the Royal Concert Hall in Glasgow as part of the annual Celtic Connections festival, this superb performance by the Richard Thompson Band marks their first live concert DVD release for five years. The first half of the show focuses on Thompsons latest DREAM ATTIC album with the second half given over to songs reaching back as far as his first solo album HENRY THE HUMAN FLY and up to recent releases such as SWEET WARRIOR and THE OLD KIT BAG. Thompsons distinctive voice and unmistakable guitar style are well to the fore and his band are as good as it gets. This will be a must have purchase for any Richard Thompson fan.

Richard is King!

Reviewed in the United States on May 21, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is basically the same show I saw (although in a different venue/city) over a year ago and it was great to revisit it and see Richard and the band at their best. I watched this on a 12 ft. wide screen in a $200K home theater system and can attest to it's excellent video and audio quality! If you have a screen larger than 40 or 50" definitely get the Bluray version!
Mr. Thompson is still at the top of his game here, with some terrific new material (although probably going on 2 years old by now) and a great backing band. His skill and sensitivity on guitar are second to none, and his songwriting skills are also top notch-- a rare combination!
His backing band is also terrific and is allowed significant time during the show to show off their skills as well.
Overall, if you're a RT fan, this video will not disappoint! My only (minor) complaint is if I were the video editor, I would have lingered more on Richard and the other performers more during their solos, rather than feel the need to cut away to a different "shot" every 10 - 15 seconds or so. If someone (especially RT) is doing a killer solo, stay with that for a while until it wraps up, then cut to another shot! Perhaps a minor complaint, but if Richard is soloing, I want to watch him, NOT the drummer for Pete's sake!
Overall, a five star performance and a 4 star video disc.

Very Enjoyable Concert DVD

Reviewed in the United States on February 6, 2012

Verified Purchase

I must note, at the start, that Dream Attic-- RT's 2010 CD that comprises the first half of this DVD's concert-- is not among my favorites in the RT catalogue. With the exception of the instant classic "If Love Whispers Your Name," the rest of Dream Attic is merely good by RT standards and not as consistently outstanding, in my judgment, as 2007's Sweet Warrior for example. That said, this is a fabulous concert DVD. The performance is impeccable, the video (I have the blu-ray version) is crisp, and the audio quality is clear and detailed. Pop this into a blu ray player hooked up to a big screen HDTV and a decent AV system and it is almost like you are attending the concert live. Aside from the Dream Attic material, the concert includes a number of RT concert staples along with some unexpected surprises. Chief among the latter is a joyous version of "The Angels Took My Race Horse Away" that will give you a new appreciation for the almost 40 year old song. If you are a Richard Thompson fan, you won't regret the purchase which at half the cost of a concert ticket is a great bargain. If you have not yet discovered RT, but have an appreciation for intelligent roots-based rock with a unique, Celtic twist, this DVD will be a revelation.

The thing is he first goes we're going to play our new album then a greatest hits (I kind of think not greatest hits but stuff off older albums in general) and he does play most of his new album (two songs missing) but holding your audience hostage and at the beginning he comments that's what he's doing.... . decent sound (I think it's shrill) decent video WTF song list... I wrote this because of his attitude toward the crowd and the view at home... me and you. Over half the time to the new album of a 148 min concert. Thank you mr thompson. not essential

Great Band; Crowd Less Than So

Reviewed in the United States on June 4, 2014

Verified Purchase

"Live at Celtic Connections" is everything we have come to expect from Richard Thompson: instrumental virtuosity, intelligent lyrics and wicked humor in between songs. The band is superb: it's always good to once again see long-time Thompson collaborator and multi-instrumentalist Pete Zorn, and Michael Jerome (drums) and Taras Prodaniuk (bass) form a solid, dynamic rhythm section. The wonderful bonus is the addition of virtuoso violinist Joel Zifkin to Thompson's musical arsenal. Both audio and video quality are top-notch on this Blue-Ray, so the only downer is the crowd! Did these people have their butts super-glued to their seats? Were they cautioned before the show began, "Behave yourselves"? I know UK residents tend to be a bit on the "reserved" side but this is ridiculous! Our man RT and his mates are up there rockin' their socks off but when the vid cuts to crowd scenes it looks like folks are preoccupied with figuring out which bus to take home after the show. Too bad, Richard...you deserved better!

great, awesome RT

Reviewed in the United States on March 24, 2012

Verified Purchase

RT is not for everyone! This is a great RT offering. I think "Dream Attic" is one of his best, some reviewers disagree but I put it with "Rumor and Sigh" or "Shoot out the Lights" or many other outstanding projects. The band is great: they've been together long enough to really get it, the sound is superb, the photography is not perfect but close enough. RT is MY favorite singer/songwriter from the UK and has been since Fairport Convention and this DVD is probably the best of his DVDs. If you're an RT fan but don't have one of his DVDs and wondering which to buy, this is it! His catalogue of music is huge and this is just a small offering but will give you a perspective of what he is about! Great DVD!

Live in a Big Room

Reviewed in the United States on October 24, 2015

Verified Purchase

It took me a couple times watching this concert DVD to enjoy it. Seems the room was a bit big and the audience perhaps too stiff or too far away from RT for him to engage spontaneously with which is a great part of any of his concerts. But the second time through I noticed more interplay with the audience even though some of it is lost in the audio. Band is superb through material from the live-in-the-studio Dream Attic album (first half of the concert) and then with more familiar material (second half). Some intimacy is lost in the large hall which also seems to "formalize" the music somewhat robbing some of the tongue-in-cheek humor from a few songs. Overall though a stellar performance with some intense extended solos.

Great Concert - Richard Thompson at his best !

Reviewed in the United States on February 1, 2012

Verified Purchase

This is Richard Thompson with a larger band -violin, saxophone / flute , and a solid rhythm section . It is a terrific sounding , and wonderfully shot dvd ! Richard Thompson -and band - are in fine form , and the set list of new & old songs is just right . I've seen RT many times , starting with the ' Shoot Out the Lights' tour , and this is the one of the best shows I've ever heard of his . Having the extra instruments really fills out the songs , and makes me eager to catch this group live . A ' 5 STAR ' performance !!!

Als bekennender Richard Thompson-Fan ist es richtig toll,den Meister mit richtiger Band zu erleben.Bei seinen Klubtourneen durch Deutschland musste er ja oft besetzungsmäßig Kompromisse machen oder solo spielen. Hier jetzt tolle Mitmusiker und endlich mal eine große Bühne,das hat er
wirklich verdient.Wirklich empfehlenswerter Konzertmitschnitt.
Die blue-ray disc kam schnell,alles bestens,vielen Dank.

Can't lose with Thompson live

Reviewed in Canada on May 31, 2012

Verified Purchase

I have most of Richard Thompson's records and have always felt that the live performances are his best -- a feeling which he apparently shares, since his recent "Dream Attic" tour skipped the studio process entirely and the CD is all live performances. This DVD proves the point in spades. It's beautifully shot in 16:9 with impeccable sound, and contains most of the Dream Attic songs plus 9 from earlier in his stellar songwriting career. The whole band is excellent, with Joel Zifkin on violin and Pete Zorn on several instruments getting plenty of time to shine, but the peak moments come when Thompson cuts loose on the guitar (something he is reluctant to do in the studio). He pulls out all the stops on "Can't Win", and shows thoughout that he's lost none of his zing as a performer now that he's into his 60s. Nor have his songwriting skills lost any of their biting wit. Powered by a high-energy rhythm section, the many rocking-out songs blow the doors off, while Thompson's singing infuses the slower numbers with emotion, especially when he's joined by Zorn on vocals.

I think most of Thompson's between-song banter with the audience could have been edited out with no great loss, but if that's the weak part of this concert, the DVD makes up for it by adding two of his solo acoustic performances in another venue. In all, we have here about two and a half hours of Richard Thompson's signature sound -- and it's even more of a great buy considering that it costs less than the Dream Attic CD!
