Stephen Stills and Judy Collins Reviews

Lars from Vancouver, British Columbia

DISAPPOINTED!

Yes ... two legends in concert ... but Stills no longer "has it" and brought down the entire performance. Judy is still amazing, but she really needs to rethink this partnership. I left the theatre feeling sorry for a once-great performer who just doesn't know when his time is up. I'd go and see Judy solo any day!

JUDY COLLINS:YES; STEPHEN STILLS:NO

I 've been a livelong fan of both, and have been to Tanglewood often as it's close to home. In short: this was the worst show I've ever seen there! With good seats in the shed, we had to endure terrible harmonies, and Stills' often unintelligible ramblings. The keyboard player overpowered Stills' singing, which may have been by design, as his voiced sounded awful. Judy's voice was wonderful, even though her enthusiasm seemed quite low. And their chemistry seemed very forced. Throughout the 1 1/2 hr show, we watched a steady stream of patrons leave early.

Do yourself a favor. Stay home, clean house, give the dog a bath, anything. This was absolutely the worst concert I have ever seen in my life. Everything was wrong.

STILLS AND COLLINS

Stephen Stills performance was sad. His singing voice was weak and lacked range and bravado. His conversations were rambling and boring. Judy Collins can still sing but their duo pieces seemed to lack anyone singing melody. It was as though they were both singing the harmony part. They managed to even mess up “Southern Cross”- a beautiful melodious piece. Many in the audience left early as the performance was not worth sacrificing bedtime or delaying an after show repast. The Dreyfus Hall venue was excellent as was the preschool dessert buffet. We enjoyed a ProShop dinner at The Regional restaurant.

REFUND

Unfortunately, I cannot give this show zero stars. This was an incredible disappointment from two great musicians that are now a little too far “over the hill.” Collins voice was strong, but she had no real audience presence with her stories. Stills was incoherent most of the time, and when you could hear his voice he was very off key. If you’re a fan of long, drawn out, out of tune, guitar jams, this concert will not disappoint you, and this will be done with a different guitar each time since Stills changed guitars about 10 times in two hours.

Huge disappointment. Stills and Collins each have wonderful musical skills; unfortunately, their combined voices yielded a discordant and out-of-synch performance that sounded like Neil Young, with a cold, wearing tight underwear. This was a terrible performance- displeasing at best- offensive at worst. We walked out (4 of us) at the midpoint. The price of the ever-beating sun was far too great to bear for the less-than meager offering. They should each sing - but ALONE

WHAT A DISAPPOINTMENT!

Our high anticipation of seeing these two music icons came to an abrupt thud with the opening number. A lethargic rendition of The Travelling Wilburys ‘ Handle Me With Care. The tempo really didn’t improve much. Band seemed out of synch, almost like this was the first gig out of rehearsal. Bass seemed to lag behind rhythm..It could have been a sound system thing. Vocal harmonization between Stills and Collins didn’t work! There were a couple of standout solo numbers by Judy Collins but not enough to salvage the afternoon. This will be my last “nostalgia” concert. Prefer to keep my memories intact.
