OUTRAGIOUS!!!!!!!!!! Lionel Richie always brings it to the stage&this Disc Captures the Magic of his Many Classic Songs over the years. the Band is tight&Lionel Vocally is on point. the pacing of the show is quick&very good all the way through. Hello was cool,but I really dug how he did "All Night Long" Live. he added a extra vibe to that song live. I wish the Collection could have kept on going because it was tight. very well Arranged&everything was Smooth. Lionel Richie is a Musical Genius.

Lionel Richie is One of the Greatest Artists Ever&Live He is even better. He is One of the Few Acts that to Me gets it right both in the Studio&on stage, he is a Artist's Artist. Live as this set showcases He is on top of his game. I enjoyed His Vocals&the overall feel of the songs played Live. I saw him in concert back in the day&it Rates in my top 1-3 Performances that I have Ever seen Live. this Man is a Musical Genius&He ain't lost it. a Must have for all Lionel fans Everywhere. OUTRAGIOUS!!!!!!!!!!!

Thanks

This CD originall was only a UK release and was first released two years ago. It (UK version) is a far better version than the US version. The UK version has 17 songs vice the US version's 12 songs. The only thing the US release has over the UK release is that the US version indicates this is a live CD which the UK release does not. Being American I like to buy items from the US, especially when it comes to music. But when a CD is released, I look at both UK and US versions and determine which one I buy. Sometimes it's better to buy the UK version such as the case in Lionel's Renaissance CD. Regarding Encore, I think I'm going to buy the UK version. It is a far better version than the US release.

Lionel Richie's Encore live album is wonderful! Though it came out three years later in 2004 of his 2001 concert in England, this is a very energetic live release. He is still in fine form singing his biggest solo and Commodores hits such as All Night Long, Still, Three Times a Lady, Penny Lover, Stuck On You (even the crowd's singing to the words!), Dancing on The Ceiling and his most recent hit Angel. I still feel like I'm at the concert after hearing this CD! And to these longtime artists doing standards albums, they need to take some pointers from Lionel and tear up some stages to sing their biggest hits and newer songs! The fans don't play around--they know all the words, just as these fans did at Lionel's concert for this album! This is yet another superb performance from Lionel, who's still at the top of his game in music!
