Editorial Review: Unplugged and set apart from his bandmates, Dave Matthews is transformed from a fusion rocker to something of a fusion folkie. Indeed, this two-disc, two-man concert recording (cut in Iowa in the winter of 1996 and shelved for nearly three years) posits the South African-born bandleader less as a Blues Traveler fellow traveler than a dexterous, jazz-inflected minstrel in the tradition of Tim and Jeff Buckley, Terry Callier, and Ellen McIlwaine. As with those considerably less-successful performers, multiplatinum Matthews is enticed to soar ever higher by his considerable vocal prowess. Ultimately, Matthews takes his tunes in dizzying directions because he can! All those exhibitions of elasticity have earned Matthews disdain in less-is-more circles. Here, however, more than ably complemented by frequent DMB guest and fellow Charlottesville, Virginia, denizen Tim Reynolds, Matthews virtually bursts through 23 tunes that leave his audience wanting more. They needn't worry: even his worst critics wouldn't accuse Matthews of being stingy when it comes to music. --Steven Stolder

Average Rating: 
Rating: - Best of Dave Matthews live album
DMB is known as a jam band and too see the DMB live is to understand their mass appeal. Live at Luther College is just Dave and Tim Reynolds who is a honary member of the band. The jams are cut down and the music is stripped down to the bare essentials. This is an older cd so the songs are from what are now classic DMB songs. Recent DMB live cds focus on the newer music so this a chance to hear the classics in a way that you most likely will never see played this way again.
Rating: - Very Good

Rating: - Dave and Tim are white hot!!
I worship DM!! Dave and Timmy Reynolds chemistry is insane!! If you want a cd set where every, I mean every song is beautiful, and moving, then you have it right here! It's hard to write a review about something I'm so fond of. One disk is in my SUV and the other in my Dakota. My kids know almost all the words. Very kid friendly and the groove is incredible. Just buy it!! You will become a fanatic like me!! One Sweet World...........
Rating: - Two virtuoso's captured live
Unfortunately, you cannot capture the brilliance of Dave Matthews and Tim Reynolds live on an album. But this one comes close.
We saw this dynamic duo in Oxford England March 2007, as they played for more than three hours. Their performance live is unmatchable.
This album demonstrates yet again what an amazing songwriter, singer and acoustic guitar player Dave Matthews is...and it shows glimpses of the amazing talent that is Tim Reynolds. Dave's lyrics shine in this acoustic ... Read More
