4 stars Well, thanks to this 3 DVD box plus 1 AUDIO CD - including the DVD versions of Exit.. Stage Left, Grace Under Pressure, and A Show of Hands - you have an important remastered work in dolby sorround in your hands for the first time and finally it's worth to buy it from every point of view!! As a matter of fact some critics have never completely appreciated the VHS version regarding these works, but now you could be immediately fond for instance of the Exit Stage Left live set, taken during a famous performance at Forum in Montreal, Quebec - cause the quality in general regarding the video output (good) and the excellent sound as well, make you follow their gig in a different manner!! It's a little bit uneven talking about the video sharpness - but you should appreciate all the features by means of a normal old tv - not the modern full HD TV - even though at the end it's a minor defect after all...the sound re-mixing is almost perfect and then you could be happy to see the performances concerning some great (or anyway very interesting) tunes such as La Villa Strangiato, The spirit of the radio or Closer to the heart, played very well inside the Show of Hands tour. Instead The YYZ/The Temples Of Syrinx/Tom Sawyer melody (but also the harmony which is well balanced) is a good mix within the Grace Under Pressure concert, which probably will you make prefer more Replay x3 than their live in Rio. Moreover track #ten Vital Signs is at the same level, being also an important contribution to such a great set of concert videos like the present unique one.

Recommended, not for the collectors of the Canadian heavy prog band only!!
