Customer Reviews of VH1 Storytellers - Meat Loaf

Great Meatloaf, but left out what I wanted most
I loved the songs and the interplay between Meatloaf, the band and the audience. The thing I wanted most however, for when I get a DVD, is I want to see everything, ESPECIALLY the talking sections. I wanted to see all the question/answer sections from the audience. I wanted to hear Meat's stories. I wanted to hear about his family. Instead I got mostly just references to items they talked about that I didn't see. There were three questions and some stuff, but you got the impression there was much more you're missing.

So the main reason I got the DVD, to hear more about Meat himself I lost. However, I love Meatloaf. The songs rock, what I see is wonderful, just wish I had more.

Meat Loaf Does It Again!
I have eagerly anticipated many DVD releases in the past - but none more so than this. Meat Loaf's VH-1 Storytellers is described as "One of the biggest intimate experiences that you'll ever have..." and it certainly is. In fact, I would go even further to say that this show defines entertainment. I watched the show on television, and although I enjoyed it, I knew that too much lay on the cutting room floor. As one reviewer has already said, "you just can't edit Meat Loaf". The locker-room setting creates a wonderful ambience, coupled with Meat Loaf who is clearly loving every moment as much as the audience. His voice, in my own opinion, has never sounded better - and this is also true of his wonderful band. (Patti Russo's sound and performance just has to be witnessed.) Together they beautifully blast out many of his classic songs. (If you think that Meat Loaf is just about Bat Out Of Hell, well, oh how mislead you are! Either way, in my opinion, he gives the best ever captured performance of this song on Storytellers. He just gets better! ). Meats storytelling is captivating. His interaction with the audience is deep, and his ability to act into a character is incredible. One fine example is Meat reading the original story lead into "More Than You Deserve". So few words, but yet so moving. You can see why Meat is so successful in Hollywood. The show will make you cry, but more than anything you will laugh. He's a very funny guy! So what I didn't like? A couple of songs are still missing; "Lawyers, Guns and Money" is one. I would also like to have seen all the new songs, especially, "Is Nothing Sacred". The disc is encoded for Region 1 only, being British, I also had to invest in new DVD player, but it was worth it! Now, I just wish that record companies would wake up and release more of Meat Loaf Live. Id love a DVD of his recent arena storming concerts across Europe, and a "Best Of" DVD. Meat live is a phenomenon especially in the UK, so why no new releases? Im eighteen, and haven't seen or heard enough of the guy!

A Gem, wonderful, beautiful musical experience
Wow, 10 stars is not enough! Just watched... Experienced (a better description) this wonderful concert for the 3rd time. Beautiful, exciting, humerous, always entertaining and often deeply moving... great music, sound and performances; and Meatloaf is absolutely charming in the chat between songs. This is the best of the VH1 Storytellers and a DVD that I will cherish for a long time. Thanks Meatloaf!
