Customer Reviews of Jane Olivor - Safe Return
PURE MAGIC I'VE BEEN A FAN OF JANE SINCE THE 70'S. I MUST HAVE PLAYER HER ORIGINAL 5 CD'S A MILLION TIMES AND SAW HER IN CONCERT MANY TINES AND NEVER GOT TIRED OF LISTENING TO THIS MAGICAL VOICE. I WAS THRILLED WHEN AFTER SO MANY YEARS LOVE DECIDES WAS RELEASED AND NOW I CAN SEE HER IN CONCERT ON A DVD, AND WHAT A CONCERT. SHE IS BETTER THAN EVER BEFORE. HER VOICE IS PURE AND BEAUTIFUL. WHEN SHE SINGS, SHE CREAPS INTO YOUR SOUL. I WAS HAPPY THAT SHE SANG A LOT OF NEW SONGS, AND OF COURSE HER STANDARDS. MY ONLY COMPLAINT IS THAT THERE WASN'T A BAND PLAYING INSTEAD OF JUST THE KEYBOARDS AND THE BASS. HER BALLADS WERE WONDERFUL, BUT THE UPTEMPO SONGS DIDN'T WORK WELL. SONGS LIKE LET'S MAKE THE MEMORIES AND THE BIG PARADE NEEDED A BAND. WHEN SHE SINGS PRETTY GIRL OR SOME ENCHANTED EVENING, YOU MELT.
SO, IF YOU NEVER HEARD JANE OLIVOR SING OR NEVER SAW HER IN CONCERT, NOWS YOUR BIG CHANCE. GET OUT THERE AND BUY THIS WONDERFUL DVD AND OR THE CD AND YOU WONT BE DISAPPOINTED.
a brilliant SAFE RETURN, indeed
Fulfilling what was merely hinted at in her earlier 1982 IN CONCERT recording (also at Boston's Berklee -- who knew it was such a tiny, little hall?), Jane Olivor's concert recording SAFE RETURN is simply masterful, never less than wonderful and many times outright genius.
Olivor's emotive, heartfelt style here is never manufactured, but, gratefully, genuine throughout. And your heart will never remain unchanged after seeing this DVD and, in particular, those tracks of absolute genius: a transcendent "Brooklyn Roads", an impassioned "Run For The Roses" (the earlier recording pales by comparison), a heavenly "Some Enchanted Evening", a heartrending "Pretty Girl", a kickass "One More Ride on the Merry Go Round", and, above all, the achingly gorgeous "Daydreams" by the incomparable Georges Delerue and Jason Darrow. And, by gum, that Eartha Kitt bite we heard from Olivor way back on FIRST NIGHT is back. If someone would write a musical (about sisters, perhaps?) for Olivor and Betty Buckley to star in together, that would indeed be a sight and sound to behold.
Production values are stellar, and the DVD 5.1/dts sound is gorgeous.
Okay, a very minor couple of caveats. Olivor skillfully but far too often refers to her Linus blanket (i.e., the teleprompter), but hey, with one night only riding on your back and bank account and with some 27 plus songs (especially when there've been concerts when scarcely 12 songs could be eked out of her in a night) and the famous stage fright issues, well, let the teleprompter roll. And for a city (Boston) whose citizens pride themselves on their sense of style and fashion, where did this audience come from? Does anyone know how to dress for an event anymore? Or put down their forks? Generally speaking, aside from Eric Conway (the pianist) and one shaved head guy, where are all of the hotties? Is Olivor's audience really this old? In that case, someone should drag in an audience of under 40s to learn about Olivor, who here takes her place forever in the pantheon of Piaf, Garland, and Midler.
HIGHEST RECOMMENDATION -- a must have.
Found Treasure in my Living Room
I have never had the privilege and luck to be in the right place at the right time to see and hear Jane Olivor in concert. So it is such a pleasure to own this DVD concert produced at the acoustically-perfect theatre at Berklee School of Music. It's an emotional ride right there in your living room, as you're held captive by Jane's presence on stage, backed by a very competent trio of musicians. I almost felt as though I were a member of that live audience...there was so much energy and love in that packed house. Jane sounded sublime with every note, every nuance. I've never understood why she didn't become a megastar in popular music, but I'm glad I found her in the 70's, and even more glad she's come back into my life in the past two years with new releases. She's a wonderful artist, a national treasure. This low-priced yet high-quality DVD is a bargain and a must for every Jane Olivor fan.
