Very Enjoyable! - Reviewed on 2008-06-08

Donovan still has the majestic persona that he had in the sixty's. His years of transcendental meditation have certainly embellished his personality in a way that envisages a feeling of a person that is obviously content with his existence. This is a "Must Have" for Donovan fans, and "Should Have" for the younger crowd that wants to understand the feelings of inner peace discovered in the 60's.

Enjoyable performance 40 years after his prime. Almost all of his biggest hits are performed during this show. I noted the absence of two of my favorites - Wear Your Love Like Heaven and Season of the Witch. But, nonetheless, it is worth your time if you are a fan.
Great-- but a little disappointing - Reviewed on 2008-02-27

I love Donovan-- going back to 1965, when my very first single that I bought was "Catch the Wind." I have also bought a number of his albums and "Greatest Hits" compilations. About two years ago, my friends and I went to Torrington's Warner Theatre to see him play live (on the same bill as Roger McGuinn of the Byrds!!!).

Anyway,I received my copy of Donovan's DVD and ran to my DVD player to watch it. The concert was, on the whole, very good. BUT, I was a little disappointed in Donovan's VOICE. It may well be that he had some problems that one night in January, 2007. But, for the first time EVER, he had difficulty in reaching some of the higher notes. And, at times, he merely SPEAKS the words!!!!! Has anyone else noticed??? Also, I was hoping that he would perform "Atlantis." He did not.

Still, the DVD is well worth the price. I was just surprised to see him struggling on the vocals.

Everything thing is fun to watch and listen to in this DVD: the stories about being in India with Maharishi Mahesh Yogi, the words and rhythms of the songs, the way Donovan gets the audience to sing along, the sweet duets with his daughter Astrella Celeste. Here is an entertainer who has evolved over the years. He started as a great song writer and singer, and he continues to uncover deeper layers of consciousness in his work.
More than 60 years old, and still "young in mind" ! - Reviewed on 2008-02-13

Hi !

I am a long time fan of Donovan and seeing him on stage, facing 3000 poeple of all different generations and making them smile and clap their hands like children, move me deeply.
I am belgian, I live in the South of France, so I have few chances to see an artist like Donovan on stage. The last time was in 1997, in Paris.
I know that for a lot of poeple of our "ever speed way of life" society, an artist like Donovan sounds like a "has been".
No need to discuss our tastes, everyone has his own, and it is just all right like this.
But for me, listening to Donovan is like a walk in my "secret garden", where I can connect again with my chilhood soul.
So I enjoy this DVD like a precious moment of inner peace, and now I am longing fir his next album, "Ritual Groove", that seems to be in good progress.

Thank you for reading my "poor" english, and enjoy Donovan or whatever music you like as often as possible !

Best regards,
