Wilson Phillips Live
D**A
These girls sang The Mamas and Papas songs almost better than their parents.
Back in the 90's, when Wilson Phillips brought on the brilliant first album, I immediately loved this group. This DVD, from 2012 at a concert in Connecticut is just beyond amazing. I didn't even expect the songs from their parents to be played, but played they did, and beyond perfect. I have a video disco system, 110" laser short throw projector and a 55" OLED monitor with many Sonos speakers in the same room and to watch this band go was epic. I hope they're still touring.

Beautiful Memories
The girls did an awesome job playing tunes from the Beach Boys, Brian Wilson, and the Mamas and Papa's. I've always loved Wendy Wilson and Carnie Wilson. Chyna too! Chyna's Dad was in the Mama's and Papa's. As far as I am concerned, this trio is the best that is out there. They grew up together as kids. As adults they are great musicians and I LOVE their voices. I grew up in the LA area in the 60's. It's a trip to hear them play their parent's music. I have yet to see their concert "LIVE" in person. Please come to Phoenix ladies! I'd love to see you come out with more cd's with Beach Boys and Mama and Papa's songs.Norman KyddMaricopa, Arizona

Wonderful concert, that captures these ladies at their best.
This is a great concert from start to finish, not only do you get their great covers of their parent's music, you also get the very best of what they have put out from their own catalog. You will not go wrong with this concert, it will make you happy and care free for a while. The harmonies are out standing as always, thank you ladies.

Not As Good As Expected
I had high hopes for this as this group are well known for their superb harmony sound. Watching it was a bit of a let down: the harmonies were not as focussed and tight as they usually are and the whole thing sounded dull, flat and unrehearsed. At times the girls were even out of tune. The preparation for this concert was featured in their reality show 'Still Holding On' and they mentioned in it that they didn't feel ready for this performance, especially given that it was being taped. Well, it shows. I put this away after watching it once and I don't think I'll be watching it again. I gave it a second star because the interview segments interspersed between the music were good to watch.

Not sure why this was released
Let me start by saying I'm a big fan of Wilson Phillips. We have their CD's and saw them in concert when they played Chicagoland. This DVD arrived just before Christmas and we put it on when my daughter was home. She was singing along with the songs (much to my annoyance lol). But after a few songs we had to give up. For a group that made harmony their staple, they were so off key and so often that it was simply unlistenable. Very disappointing. Guess I'll post on eBay and hopefully get some of my money back. I have over 250 concert videos, good and not so good - so not keeping one is a pretty strong statement. Very unfortunate.

Class Act
I thought it was great but it could have included more of Wilson Phillips' original songs along with the tribute to their parents.

Wonderful live concert!
This is an absolutely fabulous positive live concert with Wilson Philips. The girls offer themselves and have a fantastic backing band with many well-known studio musicians. Acapela version of "Good Vibrations" is magical. Very nice picture quality and stereo sound. Recommended by the best.

Daddies` Töchter live
Als langjähriger Fan der Beach Boys und The Mamas & The Papas war ich 1990 natürlich sehr neugierig auf das Debutalbum von Carnie und Wendy Wilson, Töchter von Brian Wilson, und Chynna Phillips, Tochter von John Phillips. Was die berühmten Bands ihrer Väter ausgezeichnet hat, die ausgefeilten mehrstimmigen Gesangsarrangements, war auch charakteristisch für Wilson Phillips und die danach erschienenen Alben der Mädels. Die im letzten Jahr veröffentlichte DVD LIVE FROM INFINITY HALL bietet nun auch die Möglichkeit, die drei live zu erleben. Geboten werden neben eigenen Hits wie HOLD ON, RELEASE ME oder YOU WON`T SEE ME CRY und dem Elton John-Cover DANIEL auch viele legendäre Songs der Beach Boys und Mamas & Papas. Wie sich diese transferiert ins 21. Jahrhundert anhören, kennt man bereits vom ebenfalls 2012 veröffentlichten Wilson Phillips-Album Dedicated . Die mehrstimmigen Gesangssätze der Drei überzeugen auch live, und Songs wie TWELVE THIRTY, MONDAY MONDAY, CALIFORNIA DREAMIN` oder GOD ONLY KNOWS erzeugen auch in den Versionen von Wilson Phillips Gänsehaut. Als Bonus gibt es eine a capella-Version von GOOD VIBRATIONS, dieser Beach Boys-Klassiker war, wie sich unschwer erkennen lässt, auch im Programm dieses Konzertes, allerdings ist die auf der DVD zu hörende Version eine mit der Live-Performance synchronisierte Studioaufnahme. Die Leute in der kleinen Infinity Hall in Norfolk, bei vielen kann man vermuten, dass sie bereits in den Sixties Fans der Beach Boys und Mamas & Papas gewesen sind, waren begeistert von Wilson Phillips, und ich bin es auch!

Disappointed
Disappointed, overall sound quality was lacking...lots of background echo. Song choice was okay but certainly left out some better known songs. Summary is that this DVD could have been much better
