I reviewed the Blu-ray of producer/arranger/writer David Foster’s concert, Hit Man, a couple months ago. Now, Foster is back with a dozen more hits and an even better concert at the Las Vegas Mandalay Bay casino. My favorite moment in the concert is when Martina McBride sings “We’ve Got Tonight.” Seal is great. Chaka Khan and Donna Summer can still belt out a song. David Foster has won 15 Grammy’s and wrote more Number #1 songs than you have fingers and toes. I’m sure this concert will show up on your local PBS station (probably during fund-raising), but if you love these songs and these performers you’ll want to own this. The Borders I purchased this from didn’t have the Blu-ray version in stock so I bought the DVD version. If you have Blu-ray, you’ll want the Hi-Def format. The staging and lighting are above average.

I never knew Orson Bean sang.
Orson Bean sings pretty well, Patti. I hadn’t heard any songs from BETTY BOOP, but now I’ll have to check it out.
talk about an over-the-hill lineup! The last time we heard Donna Summer sing, she was a disaster.
Donna Summer sounds pretty good on this DVD, Rick. Earth, Wind, and Fire struggled. Yes, this is a geezer rock concert.
