    5.0 out of 5 stars Goat Rodeo Sessions Live, April 25, 2012
    This review is from: Goat Rodeo Sessions (DVD)
    We saw the cinecast of this concert in a movie theater on January 31, 2012. It was extraordinary, and I couldn't be happier that it's finally being released on DVD. The individual artistry and the tight ensemble playing are second to none. You won't be disappointed.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Brain Candy, May 27, 2012
    This review is from: Goat Rodeo Sessions (DVD)
    Saw Goat Rodeo on PBS TV, 4 amazing virtuoso musicians having a great time, my review title is "Brain Candy" because I think just listening to this ensemble will make you smarter (at a minimum it will stimulate your brain in a good way), the sound is like nothing you have heard. If you enjoy super high quality creative music you will love this I think. My wife who is not a music person at all was saying what is this? My 17 year old boy on the other hand was saying, "Mom" this is really good, so musical quality and musicality can be appreciated across generations and by most everyone that appreciates great quality instrumental music.

    (REAL NAME)   
    This recording of the `Goat Rodeo' sessions records the first public performance of this group of musicians who are a group of talented and technically skilful musicians from different genres who might never normally meet musically. This opening statement is to paraphrase the comment by Stuart Duncan made as his descriptor of the group. To paraphrase another group member, Yo Yo Ma adds that for some, this music is `outside the box' but for these musicians there is no box. It is normal and just what they do.

    In struggling to describe the music contained in this recording I found myself outside the box but struggling to get in! This is not `cross-over' music but it is made up of an amalgamation of several contributing genres. These could loosely be described as containing elements of country & western, blues, a bit jazzy at times, elements of modern classical and all put together in a uniquely individual manner relying on individual talents blended to produce something...
