Its about time older groups like the Dells put out Concert material for their fans so that a video legacy can be had by the fans. It wasn't the best concert DVD but for anyone who is a fan of the groups it is well worth buying. The very first LP I ever purchaced as a child was by the Dells and they quickly and have always been my favorite group. Lacking was any video of TV appearances or concerts. This DVD fills the void. A better performance and DVD release would be from a show in the late 60's or early 70's called "Soul". Its was a PBS series hosted by Ellis Haislip that ran for several years and featured hour long Studio Concerts of such performers as the Dells, Delfonics, Moments, Al Green etc....Of course this was footage of these artist in their Prime. But this DVD concert fills a void for me for I now have the MIGHTY MIGHTY DELLS IN CONCERT!

I was very disappointed in this dvd, I"ve been a fan of the Dells since(1970's). I know that they have aged, but I could not watch the entire dvd.

As much as I like the Dells, This was one of the worst DVDs I have seen. They were off key and sounded like the curse words they used.

I'm sorry, I love the Dells, but I would not recommend this DVD to anyone. Unfortunately, they have just gotten too old to be singing anymore. They struggled to walk out on the stage, let alone sing. It hurt to watch them attempt to hit the notes.

The Dells happens to be one of my all times favorite true R&B group. Being this is their first DVD I was very disappointed in the poor quality in making it.The singings was somewhat liking but you have to remember these men are well up in age.If you are a true Dells fan then you will enjoy seeing them perform such songs as STAY IN MY CORNER,which allways a croud pleaser.

This was a terrible DVD. The Dells are a well respected group but the sound and the conduct of one or two members were unprofessional. The show would have been more appreciated if The Dells were musically represented by perhaps "Boys to Men" or a respected younger group. The Dells were one of my favorites in the 70's. They have contributed so much to music and I would like to see them gracefully retire.

The Dells have been singing together for 55 years (the last 47 years with the same members) and they still sound great! Lead singer Marvin Junior's whiskey soaked pipes continue to captivate while the rest of the group (Verne Allison, Chuck Barksdale, Johnnie Carter and Michael McGill) show the youngsters what real harmonizing is.
This entertaining dvd includes such Dells classics as There Is, The Love We Had Stays on My Mind, Oh What a Night, Always Together, Give Your Baby a Standing Ovation, A Heart Is a House for Love, and Stay in My Corner.

There are no extras. Just the concert. But, what a concert? The Dells in all there glory. Singing all the songs you're looking for. What a wonderful way to spend an hour. There's A Heart In The House Tonight.
