Customer reviews of Volunteer Jam

Customer Rating:      Summary: CDB, MARSHAL TUCKER BAND, & SOUTHERN ROCKERS! Comment: THE FIRST FULL LENGTH SOUTHERN ROCK MOTION PICTURE" ACCORDING TO THE DESCRIPTION ON THE COVER. THIS CONCERT DVD CONTAINS VINTAGE SOUTHERN ROCK FROM IT'S GLORY DAY'S, IT WAS FILMED AT CHARLIE'S VOLUNTEER JAM IN 1975. IT CONTAINS PERFORMANCES BY THE CHARLIE DANIELS BAND, THE MARSHAL TUCKER BAND (INCLUDING TOY AND TOMMY CALDWELL), JIMMY HALL FROM WET WILLIE, DICKEY BETTS AND CHUCK LEAVELL OF THE ALLMAN BROTHERS BAND AND DRU LOMBAR.
IT CONTAINS EXCELLENT COLLABORATIONS NEVER SEEN BEFORE.
It contains footage of Charlie riding his horse along with the music being performed.
It has a song set of 14 lengthly songs with a running time of approx.123 minutes. Highlights include: "Birmingham Blues", "Long Haired Country Boy", "No Place to go", "Texas", "The South's Gonna Do it Again", "orange blossom special", "Twenty four hour Blues" (THIS IS AN OUTSTANDING COLLABORATION WITH DOUG GRAY OF THE MARSHAL TUCKER BAND SINGING), "THE TRILL IS GONE" (ANOTHER OUTSTANDING COLLABORATION!), "JELLY BLUES" (VERY OUTSTANDING COLLABORATION - CONTAINS JIMMY HALL OF WET WILLIE SINGING THE BLUES "it's a mean old world when you try to live it all by yourself...why would my woman want a back door man when she has a good loving man like me"), and "MOUNTAIN DEW" (This contains a good-looking country woman banjo player).
It contains a bonus new interview with Charlie Daniels where he says he changed to words to "long haired country boy" from I get drunk in the mouring and I get stoned in the afternoon" to I get up in the mourning and I get down in the afternoon". This is a welcome change for me.
THIS IS AN EXCELLENT COLLABORATION CONCERT DVD OF SOUTHERN ROCK ALLSTARS IN THEIR PRIME. THE PERFOMANCES ARE SIMPLY SO OUTSTANDING THAT THEY DEFY WORDS TO DESCRIBE THEM. THIS IS A TRUE CLASSIC, AND I HIGHLY RECOMMEND IT!
Customer Rating:      Summary: My best DVD concert! Comment: I have about 25 live rock concerts on DVD and they are all good. But, this Charlie Daniels concert is incredible. Perfect camera angles, no special effects, no annoying quick cuts, no bad songs. It is now my favorite.
Customer Rating:      Summary: Great vintage CDB! Comment: This video archive of the second "Volunteer Jam" captures The Charlie Daniels Band and many of their contemporaries at their best. Years before the mass appeal of the huge hit "The Devil Went Down to Georgia" in 1979, the CDB was gathering legions of fans the old-fashioned way...by writing and recording great music, but even more importantly, taking it to the people in live concerts. This concert captures that era and that spirit very well.
The list of songs shows how this band and so many others of that time wrote and recorded songs that included long and elaborate "jams" that made the songs last several minutes longer than your usual 3 to 4 minute pop radio hit. That's why this group and so many others didn't have many songs on the radio, but people still bought and enjoyed the heck out of their records. Funny how the CDB is still around, while the acts who had hits in the Top 40 at that time are largely forgotten.
Extended songs like "Birmingham Blues" and "No Place Left to Go" show that song style perfectly, mixing rock, country, blues and jazz all together in one song. Special guests from The Marshall Tucker Band, Dickie Betts from The Allman Brothers Band, and others make this concert even more special.
It's a can't miss purchase if you like mid-70s Southern Rock. If you don't, give this one a try. You just might change your tune.

Customer Rating:      Summary: GREAT VINTAGE SOUTHERN ROCK Comment: THIS DVD CAPTURES THE GREAT SOUTHERN ROCK SOUND FROM THE 70'S IN ALL IT'S RAW GLORY.PURE MUSICICAL ENERGY FROM THE HEYDAY OF SOUTHERN ROCK.
WELL WORTH THE MONEY. THESE GUYS ROCK....
