CD Reviews

Live & Improvised showmanship at its finest
J. Lupton | Just south of Oblivion | 05/25/2009
(5 out of 5 stars)

"I'mm sure the other reviewers have mentioned many aspects of this fine 2 cd set capturing shows in 4 different BBC broadcasts. I will say that if you are JJ fan - you need this. I have never heard the band or Joe sound this "hungry"; the energy generated during these performances is amazing and the band is very tight. Joe gives the band room for some solos and if you see songs repeated chances are they aren't played the same way twice. Joe and his band were climbing the ladder at this point just before their peak popularity. Truly a great live performer that should be even more appreciated today in the face of bland American Idol performances that play it safe and much of today's formulaic top 40 bands. Joe plays to the audience and incites them to be part of the show; the band ignites, smolders and catches fire at all the right times. This is as good or better than the Live 80-83 cd because it's just a bit more raw, fiery and personable than the earlier live release. Joe's five for five among the reviewers - what more can I say?"

"This 2 Cd release seemed to get no fanfare at all and was a complete surprise to me that such a collection has appeared. Simply a very good collection of BBC live recordings from the early period of Joe's career. Excellent audio quality with liner notes that are rather basic. Joe Jackson fans should grabbed this one. Hopefully, more live recordings and rarities from Joe Jackson vaults will follow."
