"For those of us who haven't been able to see Sara Bareilles live, this is as good as it gets, and we are SO lucky to have this CD/DVD combo! If you already have "Little Voice" (in single or 2-CD form) you won't be disappointed as this is all new material!
Here you get BOTH the video (DVD) and audio (CD) of Sara's intimate July 12, 2008 concert at The Fillmore in San Francisco. On the high-quality CD/DVD she sings songs from her megahit CD "Little Voice" -- it's clear how much better she is live. Her voice has a lot of soul and passion, especially in her amazing cover of "(Sittin' On) The Dock of the Bay" and the opening number "Bottle It Up." The concert also has the following songs: Vegas, Morningside, Love on the Rocks, Between the Lines, Fairytale, August Moon, City, Love Song, Many the Miles, and Gravity.
The 2-hour DVD is beautifully produced and a treasure for Sara B fans. Watching Sara up close perform on the piano and sing is amazing. The concert is taped professionally and in between songs we get intimate moments of Sara and her band, backstage footage, and private acoustic performances of Sara playing/singing with friends on the Northern California coast. If you want to get technical, the concert DVD is presented in 5.1 surround sound (boy are we lucky!).
Also on the DVD are three music videos: Fairytale, Love Song and Bottle It Up.
By the way, if you like Sara B, check out Brooke Fraser's CD "Albertine" on Amazon! (Another amazing singer-songwriter who's better live just like Sara B!)
**Please note: There is also a DVD-only version of Sara's intimate July 12, 2008 concert at The Fillmore in San Francisco. Don't settle for just the video, when you can get the video PLUS the BONUS audio CD of the full-length concert! It's such a treat to own both so that you can listen to the concert in your car or on your mp3 player or iPod. The CD/DVD combo is available on Amazon and costs the SAME (at least the regular price is).

Girlfriend loved it

"I got this as a gift for my girlfriend. She has been going to Bareilles shows for the past 4-5 years and when she opened the present she was really excited. We watched it she really liked al the songs they played, and I thought that the DVD was put together really well.
It is Sara Bareilles live at the Fillmore in San Francisco, but during the performance, the dvd cuts away between songs and you get to hear little tid bit from Sara about how she came out with the ideas for the songs, and see a little behind the scenes things.
So if you are a Sara Bareilles fan, or you know someone that is, this is a great purchase that I would highly recommend."
Sara is the real deal !!!!

"I purchased Sara Bareilles' "Little Voice" CD last April & was very impressed, but being an old school music fan of 50 years, I always judge a performer by a live performance. I live in Buffalo, NY & recently passed on going to see Sara in Cleveland in early November & after watching the DVD, I'm so sorry I did. This gal has one hell of a voice !!!!! As good as "Little Voice" is, it only tells part of the story. In this live performance, Sara B. takes full advantage of the live setting & shows off her very smooth jazz flavorings, her ability to make a quiet ballad very dynamic & she can also belt it out when she has to. And by the way, she also kicks a-- on piano. Unfortunatly in todays music, theres not alot of real artists out there, but I put Sara up there with someone like KT Tunstall, another one of the few left in a rare breed."
Excellent dvd/bonus cd, A superstar on the rise!

"Sara played her cd Little Voice LIVE in an quite excellent performance. This is better than the studio version. As other guys reviews mention, the dvd/bonus cd has many bonus material that gives you a good insight about this young woman, who is an excellent singer, songwriter/composer, quite charming and funny. If you really want to know if someone is good, watch them in a live performance. She performs like she owns the stage. Reaches every note and gives a new dimension to her material from Little Voice. In City, it reminds me of B. Hornsby music, and she is quite a piano player whose songs have a great beat. I watched and listened to this concert in my computer with my earphones, to flavor every single sound coming from her performance. Her new composition shows she has some great stuff coming, which sadly is not out. Come on Sarah we want more music from you!"
