[...]Seriously though, if you are a fan of Black Cherry and/or Felt Mountain (or even Goldfrapps latest offerings on Supernature) you will surely love this DVD.

A good handful of the tracks are previously unreleased and make the DVD worth the money just for that, but when you take into account that it's a double disk affair then how can you say no!? :)

From the idyllic tranquility of utopia and lovely head, to the rock chic stomping that can only be found with train and strict machine when performed live, this is by far the best live act I have seen in recent years.

I've had the pleasure of hearing some fantastic live albums in my time. And I never thought anything would beat "The Who Live At Leeds" or the Stranglers "All Live and All Of The Night" but this onslaught of Stranglers and Hugh classics for me beats it. It really is *that* good. There's some impossible moments here. Hugh and band pushing it and pushing it reworking classics into even better songs. There's stuff played at 125 miles per hour. Then there's balls-against-the-wall performances of songs you'd just never attempt..... "Sewer" without keyboards anyone? No problem let's make it better with more guitar!!

This album should come with a free pair of tweezers so you can pinch yourself to make sure you're not dreaming.

Really a Great oldie !!!

Of course ...nothing compares to the outstanding "Black and white night"...but its good value for the money with some songs from other artists normaly not performed by R.O. ( Bridge over troubled water, sweet caroline ..and so on)

It`s in B/W...but taped by australien tv...and picture and sound are therefore really good.

A little piece of history that shows why his was called "The big O" in his younger days...and a must buy for anyone who loves great music....and miss him !!

"Alanis Unplugged" is one of the best of these stripped down live albums that have become more common in the last couple of decades. I would probably have to go back to the one by 10,000 Maniacs for the last time I thought an artist came off better live and unplugged than they did in the studio. In large measure that has to do with Morissette reigning in her vocal affectations while singing most of these songs, which benefit from being stripped down so that the personal lyrics are emphasized more. With Morissette it is always about cryptic lyrics and moody melodies, but rally being able to hear the words and the way she vocalizes these songs in a more intimate situation makes them more approachable (e.g., "That I Would Be Good"). These songs are song ... Read More:

This comes very close to being a great concert DVD; the audio-visual quality is excellent, it is atmospheric and the musicianship and singing is impeccable. The only thing which lets it down is the sound balance - the drums and percussion are a bit too loud and dominent, whilst Carlos's guitar isn't loud and dominant enough, and fails to be the potent force that it is on his studio recordings. I'm only talking a small amount and I really enjoy the DVD, but everytime I watch it, a little voice inside my head says 'The guitar should be louder.' Tracks include Black Magic Woman, Samba Pati, Soul Sacrifice and many more.

I bought this album when it came out, having been a huge KISS fan for years, and tried and tried AND tried to like it. Well tonight I just tried again and even after almost two years break from it cannot find any redeeming features here to commend to anyone considering buying this album.
I have one word to sum up the entire enterprise; "clunking". Like a broken down engine Paul clatters, crashes (and even wheezes) his way around some truly awful lyrics, whilst trying to squeeze his triangle words into square holes over an uninspired and lack lustre musical backdrop. We have to wait until the last song (not a long wait as the album is so short) for a melodic verse and even that seems to have been lifted from an old Jerry Riggs song.
After all these years ... Read More:

178.Live At The BBC by: Sandy Denny

Used Price: £25.00

Although I've only given this 3 Stars it is an excellent product but the fact remains that the recording quality of some of it is such that it sounds as if it was recorded off the radio (and the medium wave at that) rather than for it. One for all Sandy Denny afficionados but not those unfamiliar with her work.

What a surprise to be the first to review this ! When I spotted it at Amazon I was seduced by the bonus tracks. This really would have made it a best of-live, hadn't it been for the fact that there's nothing from my favourite album The Raven. The voice of Cornwell is on here and at its very best. There is as always the excellent rhytm section (Burnel-Black)and the Doors-alike organ of Dave Greenfield. Listen to this and you will realize that the Stranglers are really New Wave and not Punk. Highlight : Toiler on the Sea.

The fact that there are two versions of this CD, one with a bikini-clad cover girl and the original sans bikini, makes you wonder about the priorities of the Western world, doesn't it?

Anyway, this is a really good live album. I've seen some people complain about the sound, but I can't hear it...it seems fine to me.
If you don't own any live Stones, you won't mind the fact that songs like "Start Me Up", "Street Fighting Man", "Honky Tonk Women" and "Satisfaction" have been available live for a long time and on several different albums. And if you do, well, then you're probably considering to buy this album because of disc two, which features a dozen rarely heard songs which have never appeared live before.

Now, I don't know why these rarities have to be compiled ... Read More:
