This editor made significant changes to the summary, which unfortunately makes the article read like promotional advertising material for the DVD, rather than keeping an encyclopaedic tone (there was also some factual errors, "The Badger" is a Tea Party song). I have un-done the entry but copied here for any debate. I believe the reverted summary (although somewhat shorter) is better than something full of flattery. Wait for a review, then link it and let the readers decide for themselves. Further use a review to enhance the summary.

Live at the Enmore Theatre (2007) is a single digital versatile disc (DVD) by Canadian singer/songwriter Jeff Martin and the Toronto Tabla Ensemble. Like the Live in Brisbane 2006 album, the performance was recorded during Martin's September tour of Australia, and this DVD showcases his Sydney performance. It consists of mainly Tea Party songs, an instrumental called The Badger, and several of his solo songs from the album Exile and The Kingdom. It is an intimate performance that successfully mixes Eastern and Western music, revealing his vocal timbre and power and multi-instrumental prowess. [1] The DVD features an entire performance, as well as bonus material including an interview with Martin and Ritesh Das; backstage footage; scenes from soundcheck and an instore appearance; and a marriage proposal by a fan to another on stage.

"performance that successfully mixes Eastern and Western music" - does it? according to who's standards? I'm not saying it does or does not, I just believe you need to back that up!

"revealing his vocal timbre and power" - the sound mix is very good and no doubt Martin's trained his voice to a very good level but how does that relate to "successfully mixing Eastern and Western music"?

"and multi-instrumental prowess" - yes Martin is a talented guitarist, but I'm yet to read a magazine on his "multi-instrumental prowess" please this is an encyclopaedia, take these kind of opinions to a forum and invite me, as I'd like to debate this statement with you. --Anthony S 10:23, 28 August 2007 (UTC)Reply
