CD Reviews

Until "A Skateboard Party" is released, this is it.
Donald Hargraves | Munster, Indiana United States | 12/24/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"For those of us who were unable to see this band play when they were first out, this is a wonderful spotlight of what the band was like before acrimony slipped into the mix and Jello's ego became more important than the music. For those who've seen the "Reunited Dead Kennedys" without Jello (let's just say "Nazi Punks F*ck Off" is about Punks who act like Nazis, whatever the latest lead singer says nonwithstanding), this is a snapshot of what the real band was like. For those who've long expected songs done live to sound exactly like they were done in the studio, this is full of songs which were not released on studio albums, or were rewritten on the way to the studio ("Back in Rhodesia" comes to mind); other songs may not sound as peppy as they did in the studio because the band had to play them live - and they did a good enough job even though it may not be what you hear on the studio release.



This is the whole show with Jello's chitchat included. It's also a complete set. Both of these make this release much better than the "Mutiny on the Bay" atrocity that came before this."
