Worth the trouble for Trouble

First of all, the sound quality is superb - though it is unforgiving, with the constant percussive sound of Buckingham's fast-moving fingers accompanying the musical notes during the opening number. That aside, the performance on here is magnificent, with a wonderful new acoustic solo arrangement of Trouble - almost half the concert is solo acoustic. His three-piece band are great - slyly augmented by an unseen (but credited) keyboardist, who presumably also covers some of the unseen bass-playing.
Perhaps we didn't really need yet another performance of Big Love, Go Insane, Tusk or I'm So Afraid - though of course, if we'd been there, we would have demanded them! I would have preferred some representation of the masterful Out Of The Cradle album and more of his experimental work from Tusk. Still, we get I Know I'm Not Wrong and even an airing of the rare Holiday Road.
The bonus "documentary" is little more than a home movie and completely lacking in structure. Some salient observations on the music industry and some good clips for the songs but he really needs a director, producer, script and cameraman.
