Desert Island Stuff.......2007-02-18

Seal is one of those pleasantly rare musical artists who defies description by not having a genre. This combo release of CD and DVD is such a value and showcases just what a musical treasure Seal is. The Parisian audience stunned me on the DVD by remaining absolutely quiet during the performance of "Don't Cry". The one thing that has always escaped my understanding is lack of universal appeal of his work. So many less-talented singers who perform other's work are more popular, but their voices are not the instrument that Seal's is. He performs his own songs with mature, thoughtful lyrics and also musically interesting pieces he has written or co-written. Seal fans, this is a Desert Island piece for you, but the DVD with the DTS® soundtrack almost beats being at a concert.

Sweet as a kiss from a rose.......2007-02-04

In Paris in 2004, Seal performed his first ever live concerts. The aptly-titled LIVE IN PARIS is a recording of one of those concerts. On LIVE IN PARIS, Seal performs most of his hits, including "Crazy", "Kiss from a Rose", "Love's Divine", and "Future Love Paradise". Seal's studio recordings are largely synthesized, so it's very interesting to hear him perform these songs live with actual musicians (and a talented bunch of musicians at that). The songs have a different sound to them, but the same wonderful feeling. There's a surprising amount of energy in this recording, both from the performers and the exuberant audience (which is remarkably courteous and remains silent through the actual songs, applauding wildly during the intervals between the songs). The songs are as charming as ever, and the recording as a whole is so sweet that it feels much like I'd imagine a kiss from a rose would feel.

There is more than just the CD recording in this package, though - it also includes a marvelous DVD recording of the concert that includes songs not on the CD. The DVD is very well-filmed, and with the surround mix it really feels like you're there at the concert with Seal. All in all, it's a delectable package and a great way to keep the hungry fan at bay while Seal records his next album.

WITHOUT PEER.......2006-05-14

It seems like only yesterday that Seal swept into the scene with his self titled debut. This is probably his best release yet - a seamless DVD and Cd of great music. If you're new to Seal - it's a great place to start. If you're a fan - the other reviews say it all. A worthy release.

Finally, a live concert! And a great package deal, too........2006-01-11

I just received this for Christmas and had to come "in here" to see what others think of it. I have never written a review here before, but want to share my thoughts on this one.

I absolutely love it, like others are saying - very soulful performance, and great arrangements of the songs that I love so much, too. I'm surprised that the little intricacies and subtleties that make his studio work so rich are here - sounds much better than I expected from a live performance. I also applaud his choice to release a show done in a country where the audience has respect enough for the performers to BE QUIET DURING THE SONGS, except when appropriate; I swear you could hear a pin drop in moments of this show, very refreshing! I have been to many concerts in my 40 years (including 2 with Seal!) and love the experience, but have just about had enough of the rudeness of others while there . . . sorry for the tangent . . . Anyway, I have been a big fan of Seal's since the first time hearing "Crazy" in 1991, and so, was anxious to hear what blend of songs he would contribute here. Great selection, with my only disappointment being the absence of "Violet," from his first album - one of my personal favorites (I understand the show did have to end sometime, though).

Since you're reading this, you obviously have a bit of interest in this release, and Seal, and I don't see how you could possibly be dissapointed! Great CD/DVD value! Enjoy.
