Being unsure of whether I will enjoy Carlos upcoming release(s) I wanted to see this dvd for only the second time. It was very refreshing for me as it probably was for the fellow fans since the beginning. Reminded me of the 20Th Anniversary show at Shoreline and Sacred Fire or select bootleg vids. The regular band set was played with fire and enthusiasm, sincerity especially Gypsy Queen,Samba Pa Ti, Europa. Carlos adaptability and versatility for each guest was amazing whether it was "traditional or new Latinx vibes". A very good production appealing to a very wide cross section of fans agewise. Nice seeing Salvador especially since he became a father a few months ago. The obvious cultural connection with the audience was almost spiritual. Even if Carlos continues down the watered down , pop path I would hope more professional live video of the "old days" concerts would become available to the public. Pepe Jimenez is an awesome drummer to me. Raul's absence is still very obvious. Normally not a horn guy it fit well in this format. Any way, really enjoyed it again and hope the future brings good things for every fan
