POOR SOUND QUALITY RUINS GREAT PERFORMANCES

"Let me get right to the point here. Great line ups, wonderful song selection, excellent performances. All ruined by some of the most horrific sound quality ever to be put on c.d. So in closing, let me say, if you can put up with the poor sound qualiy, everything else on this c.d. is great. However, if you are a genuine audiophile, I think you will be just as disappointed with this release as I am.

Thanks for reading my review, I hope it was helpful,

Tom

Not the greatest but not bad

"This 2 CD set covers several years of the band through 4 different vocalist.A lot of the best of Savoy Brown is presented here but the sound quality is lacking on some songs.The sound seems to be bootleg quality on some tracks where the lead guitar is overshadowed by the drums or another instrument.I got the impression somebody in the audience taped the sessions with a cassette player and was out of position on some songs to get the complete sound.The good news is that there are extended jams on some of Savoy Browns best songs like Louisiana Blues and Leaving again."
