Customer Reviews of Strat Pack:Live in Concert

False Advertising from Eagle Vision.
I have always trusted DVD products from Eagle Vision and in my collection of 300+ DVD concerts their label dominates my shelf. I have been anxiously awaiting the release of this product for a couple of months and upon picking up a copy a couple of days ago and was thrilled to see the DTS logo on the back of the DVD case AND on the DVD disc within...after reading the line up of artists I looked forward to loading this disc up and enjoying the show in DTS! I cannot fault the venue, artists, camera work or video and sound of Dolby Digital 5.1, but THERE IS NO DTS SOUNDTRACK AS CLEARLY STATED ON THE DVD CASE OR DISC...if there is a DTS SOUNDTRACK there is no way to access same, what a pity, what a shame! While I will keep my DTS lacking copy of this concert as it is excellant in every aspect IT WOULD HAVE BEEN THAT MUCH SWEETER IN DTS (as advertised)! The availability of DTS certainly would have earned this Eagle Vision product a 5 Star rating in my eyes. I personally feel that Eagle Vision needs to issue an apology for such a bungle as well as sending duped purchasers a true DTS encoded version. [...] In future, I will be very wary of purchasing future Eagle Vision products that sport the DTS logo.

great lineup of real talent
Great looking/sounding concert featuring some major players in the history of the Stratocaster. Buddy Holly's band, the Crickets led by Sonny Curtis sing Buddy's hits and legendary British guitar instrumentalist, Hank Marvin shows why he's a legend(at least in Britain.) Paul Carrack and Mike Rutherford(Mike and the Mechanics) sound great. There's a lot of fine music here but why only one song from Gary Moore - the best guitarist in the show. And why on a program dedicated to the Fender Strat,does Jamie Cullum do a song without any guitar whatsoever? That seems odd.

Defective copy or production?
The concert is pretty good with varying types of the music, some of which I don't care too much for. But at least on my disk, there are three things wrong with it: <
>1. The packaging and the DVD disk itself promise a DTS sound. Even though I have a DTS decoder as part of my receiver, there is no option in the disk menu to select that audio option. <
>2. The editorial and the menu promises to have some interviews, but none was found on my copy of the disk. <
>3. There is a moment or two of freezing in the middle of the last song that Paul Rodgers performs with the help of Joe Walsh. This may be due to the transition from one layer to the other, but it is the most apparent among my "dual layer" I have viewed.
