 Amazon Didn't Deliver As Desribed Jun 13, 2010
Matisyahu's music is fantastic. However, Amazon advertised the product I purchased as including a DVD and a CD. There was no CD included.
 great cd Feb 01, 2010
i love his music and so far have yet to be dissapointed with a cd of his.
Great CD and DVD combo Jan 30, 2010
Great music as always from Matisyahu wit ha great DVD inside of a concert with lots of extra bits.
Good music, Good philosophy Jan 17, 2010
The combination package of a DVD included with the CD adds the much needed dimension to who Matisyahu is and what he is all about. In addition, it shows great vies of Israel, which lends extra flavor to what he is singing and saying. Matisyahu was recently performing at a popular night club in our area. Instead of sitting in a crowded room hearing him perform, I chose to order the CD/DVD combination from Amazon. I'm glad that I did. It gave my wife and I a chance to soak up his spirit, song and down to earth reasoning in the quiet of our own home. We would never had had that opportunity as a result of the night club visit. Buy this combo. if you are interested in Matisyahu.No Place To Be (CD/DVD)
 Time to to go somewhere new. Jan 01, 2010
Basically a Re-mix EP partnered with a full-length concert CD, Matisyahu's "No Place To Be" is best reviewed as a concert disc. And "Live In Israel" is one average performance. Matisyahu is a charismatic person, but he's a static performer. He does have a crack band, and they deliver on his songs. He just needs a little more animation (and this from a man who got some of the original attention to his shows because he was a Hasidic Jew who would stage dive in full regalia).
The songs on the EP are decent, but only two are new. He does well with Sting's "Message in a Bottle," and the brand new "Warrior" matches anything on Youth. Then there are re-presentations of two of his best songs, "Jerusalem" and "Chop 'Em Down." Add three remixes of "Youth," "Message In A Bottle" and an absolute wretched deconstruction of "Jerusalem," and you have the EP. After two studio and one live albums, this is spreading his so-far meager catalog a bit thin.
Not the best introduction to a performer whom I think is extraordinary when he's 100% on, "No Place To Be" is easily bypassed. If you want a concert Matisyahu, hit the Live At Stubbs, or get the studio albums "Youth" or the recent Light.
