James Taylor's
Live at the Beacon Theatre quickly became the demonstration DVD of choice for many high-end home-theater owners due to its gorgeous picture and pristine sound. It's a treat, then, that Taylor's second concert DVD,
Pull Over (recorded in the summer of 2001 on the tour of that name), has those same qualities, with the added benefit of a widescreen picture, though it's not anamorphically enhanced for widescreen TVs. Of course Taylor himself is as reliable as ever, showing no signs of age in his warm voice as he and a great band cover a number of songs from his then-unreleased
October Road album as well as such favorites as "Carolina in My Mind," "Fire and Rain," "You've Got a Friend," "Your Smiling Face," "How Sweet It Is (To Be Loved by You)," and "Sweet Baby James."
Pull Over is an outstanding concert DVD, but if it had beenn anamorphically enhanced, it might have laid claim to being one of the best ever.

| Weak video mars great performance and audio | 2007-12-27 | 3 / 5 |

As other reviewers have noted, the video is a "matted" 4:3. What this means is on our home theatre, we had to zoom in by 50% to fill the screen and the resulting picture is grainy and muddy. It's a shame so many other wise fine music DVD's miss the opportunity of decent 16:9 video.
James' performance is strong, and the audio transfer in Dolby 5.1 is super. But like others said, I had to close my eyes to really enjoy it. |

If I had it to do over I would buy it again. It calms my mind and nerves with the sound of his voice and the music he sings. I hope to see more of James Taylor in concert on DVD. If you like James Taylor - You will love Pull Over.

| Awesome! Love it! The the behind the scenes view of the making of Country Road is not especially well-filmed and disappointingly lacking in detail. If you're buying it for the music, though, it truly is wonderful, and excellent quality. Thumbs up from me. |

| This is a great DVD. Good production work. Kinda wish JT would've played more hits but the last 1/3rd of the show was the best of JT. |
