Cool Ruler Gone ColdNov 03, 2004
By B. Poelman I was really excited to open up this DVD, crank up the volume, and skank along with the one and only Gregory Isaacs. Unfortunately I was disappointed from the outset. The video quality is quite poor (along with camera-work and editing) and Gregory himself was a sad sight. A once handsome, confident, strapping figure, he is now reduced to a grey-haired, pot-bellied, teetering old shell of himself. What's equally disappointing is the obvious weakness of his once strong, silky voice. In fact, his songs often sound best when he turns his mike to the audience (which he does constantly throughout the show). Gregory has been such a wonderful part of the reggae world that it's heartbreaking to see what he's become. On the positive side, the song selection is excellent and the 5.1 audio really sounds great. If your a huge Isaacs fan you may want to fork over the cash to get this disc, otherwise take that same money and purchase one of his many, many classic cds.

Big "Al"Nov 10, 2003
I really enjoyed this DVD and it's a must for any fan of the "Cool Ruler" and reggae music in general. The previous performances on DVD did not have enough of Gregory performing. Because I own the CD version of this release; I was intially concerned about the fast paced performance; not so with the DVD. He "cools down the pace" on this version. I highly recommend this DVD. If I can say anything remotely negative about the DVD; it is the editing. I didn't enjoy the black-outs that occurred while transitioning between certain songs. Again, this is merely a disapproval I have with editing. I HIGHLY RECOMMEND - Gregory Isaacs: Live in San Francisco.
Very few can touch this perfoemanceMay 21, 2004
By J. Tarnue Moryan Gregory is fantastic. The band is incredible. This is a must for any reggae fan- a must. I only wish there was some cedits given to this fantastic band members. I wish there names were printed.
