celebrated his 90th birthday by holding a star-studded bash at the Hollywood Bowl for two nights in late April 2023. Available in a variety of formats -- the standard two-CD and Blu-ray, a complete digital edition, and a double-LP of highlights -- is an epic party, capturing the breadth and depth of 's influence on American music. The biggest stars are saved for a closing stretch with himself. Over a series of five songs, he shares the stage with & , , and , a culmination of two hours of festivities that begin with tearing into "Whiskey River" and keeping things humming with "Yesterday's Wine." Between these superstars and upstarts lie a lot of legends, friends, and family, all sounding excited to sing these songs to an appreciative audience. A concert of this magnitude is bound to have a slow spot or two but they're overshadowed by the moments where the singer is perfectly suited to the song: captures the rambling wit of "Me and Paul," rip through "Georgia on a Fast Train," steers "Hello Walls" back to its honky tonk roots, highlights the melancholy undercurrent on "Mammas Don't Let Your Babies Grow Up to Be Cowboys," and offers an extraordinary solo version of "Funny How Time Slips Away." If 's voice sounds a little ragged, he never seems disconnected: He plays with enthusiasm and cracks jokes, happy to still be singing his songs at the age of 90. ~ Stephen Thomas Erlewine
