"I wish I could describe this album elequently enough so that reading this review would be like listening to the music. Sadly, you might just have to hear this album for yourself if your morbid curiousity peaks high enough. This live cd is a manifestation of everything that is wrong with reggae: overzealous, cheesy and too eager to please. No originality makes you feel sad for the state of reggae and makes you cringe that some people have gone out to enjoy this band. We can only hope that the crowd noises are overlaid or just that they are random drunk interjections. If neither of these are the case then abandon all hope if you enter the jazzhaus, for it is the land where musical integrity is thrown out the window."
