(4 out of 5 stars)

"I realize that good southern rock has never really died out,but I haven't heard too much about the Outlaws in some time now.Happen to come across this live CD,so I thought I'd check it out.Good sound quality,I noticed.Many of you are probably already familiar with most of the ten tracks played here,like "There Goes Another Love Song","Superficial Love","Ghost Riders In The Sky","Evil,Wicked,Mean&Nasty" and their signature tune "Green Grass And High Tide"(has it REALLY been thirty years since this song first came out?)Still love hearing those most recogized played guitar licks,you know...later in the song.Line-up:Hugh Thomasson and Henry Paul-guitar&vocals,Frank O'Keefe-bass,Billy Jones-guitar and Monte Yoho-drums.Obviously,this CD should appeal to fans of Blackfoot,Molly Hatchet,Marshall Tucker Band and .38 Special.Southern rock fans,rejoice!"

Good for memories, but...

"The Live versions of the songs on this album are not all that great. "Ghost Riders" is exceptionally disappointing, though "Hurry Sundown" sounded pretty good. It would be a boon if the other albums were re-released. I have met only disappointment in trying to locate even a vinyl of them."

Great 90s Rock From A Great 70s Band

"Although I liked BRING IT BACK ALIVE better, this is a great live album by the best band ever. Even though Hughie Thomasson is the only original member on this album, it still remains one of the best albums of 1993."
