Special 2-DVD set of Diana Krall's "Live in Rio" comes out next week

The Special Edition of Diana Krall's "Live in Rio," in a 2-DVD set with 210 minutes, will be released in the USA by Eagle Vision next Tuesday, October 27.
And the 5-disc box set (total time: 650 minutes!) with the first season of Elvis Costello's "Spectacle" TV show, directed by Dave Russell and featuring Diana Krall, Elton John, Bill Clinton and Smokey Robinson, will be out both on Bluray and DVD formats, on November 10.
This special edition of "Live in Rio" includes features not only the complete material from the standard DVD, as well as a second disc with extra live tracks filmed in Canada, Spain and Portugal, plus the "Rooftop Sessions" (filmed at the Fasano Hotel in Rio de Janeiro, featuring Brazilian bossa nova master Carlos Lyra singing "Corcovado" and "Garota de Ipanema", with legendary producer Tommy LiPuma in the "audience") which were previously available only on the Blu-ray release and on the Japanese issue of the standard DVD. The promotional film for the "Quiet Nights" song completes the second disc.
