Review of Dream Concert

Monday, September 24th, 2007

The new york times has posted this review of Joss’s performance at the MLK Dream Concert. The concert is scheduled to air on tv in January.

MOST musical variety shows are disorganized nightmares, but the Dream Concert - to raise funds for a Martin Luther King memorial in Washington - didn’t disappoint. It completely lived up to its name.

In a moment of concert surrealism, the ever-shrinking TV meteorologist Al Roker stepped onto the big Radio City Music Hall stage and reported “I have a weather flash . . . it’s hot in here!”

Uncle Al was right.

Killer performances by Aretha Franklin, Garth Brooks and Joss Stone topped the 14-act lineup, which also featured Stevie Wonder, Carlos Santana and opera great Jessye Norman.

The show was smart on many levels; there were top acts and a fast pace that never lost momentum. The brilliant theme celebrated the words and philosophy of Dr. King, and it connected the performance, from the rise of the curtain to final bow. This accomplishment was remarkable, given that Radio City is a difficult hall in which to create intimacy.

Hip-hop refugee Wyclef Jean was the best and first to really engage the audience. When Jean wasn’t getting a big enough rise from the audience, he took his act off the stage and into the crowd, rousing the sedate fans from their pricey, $1,000 seats.

While the Queen of Soul stayed on the stage, she also unglued the people from their seats with her classic Motown spelling lesson, “R-E-S-P-E-C-T.”

Among the other standout songs in the three-hour event were the Joss Stone duet with newcomer Ryan Shaw on the Sam Cooke classic “A Change is Gonna Come,” Brooks’ white-Stetson cover of “Abraham, Martin and John,” and Stevie Wonder’s famously funky “Superstition.”

Joss Performs at Live Earth

Sunday, July 8th, 2007

At 11:30pm EST,on July 7, 2007 Joss took the stage in Johannesburg, South Africa. She wore a floral halter dress, her hair was straightened , and she was barefoot of course.
She came out and the crowd that had been waiting used and she said asked why no one was clapping or clicking , the crowd started applauding.
She opened with “Girl the won’t believe it” from Introducing Joss Stone and then she then sang “Headturner” and “Tell Me What We’re Gonna Do Now”.

Joss definitely enjoyed herself, dancing and interacting with the crowd.

She then continued on with “Music”, which she calls her love letter to music.

The next song she dedicated to the lads. She told them it if she could tell them anything it would be to say something, anything. She then broke into ” Tell Me About It”.

She closed with “Right to be Wrong” from Mind, Body and Soul . This is a much slower song then the others, so it slowed down the mood, Joss sang it beautifully. Towards the end the crowd started clapping and embarrassed her. She did a few improvisions and runs at the end of the song.
I was really impressed by her performance, she did a bunch of the songs off her new album, not just the one usual one or two. It was the first time seeing her perform “Tell Me About It” and “Headturner”. I feel as thought the inclusion of “Right to be Wrong” might have been a jab at the press, who haven’t been to kind to Joss lately.

Here is video I found.

Thanks to msn.com for airing the show
