Reviewer: John Fitzgerald, Human resources staff database assistant May 08, 2001 This is a fun, energetic concert package fueled by a massive audience and a star studded
line up. Stevie's "Gold dust woman" has Nicks taking the lead which may come as a
surprise. It would've been interesting to see what Sheryl might have done with it but it's a
treat for us nonetheless. Stevie also adds tambourine to the final jam "Tombstone blues"
but overall, it's a mixed bag, Chrissie Hynde suits the Dylan penned number well while
others like Sarah Mclachlan don't mesh with this type of number. Sarah is much better on
"The difficult kind" which has it's studio version improved upon here. Some songs are still
more definitive in their original recordings notably "It don't hurt" which suffers from the
lack of a Lindsey Buckingham style solo at the end that the previous rendition sports!
However, the occasional tune measures up equally like "Strong enough" with Natalie
Maines from The Dixie Chicks sounding better than Sheryl. Although televised, one does
wonder why this was not a video release but two other Crow videos with no guests were
unleashed? All in all, a very happy, pleasing affair.
