Review:
A fine live album
This is
a really good live album. JJ Cale was a
very fine musician and guitarist underneath all that apparently effortless
cool, and it shows throughout this album.
Fine singing, great guitar work, a lovely atmosphere and a terrific,
tight band all add up to a really good album.
It's true that, being cut from several concerts it lacks
some of the atmosphere of a single live concert in places, and once or twice
the sound balance puts JJ's voice a little too far back, but overall it's
terrific. From a wonderful, tender
Magnolia to a rumbustious, sort of reverse Mama Don't in which the instruments
leave one by one, it's a really enjoyable album and a fine record of a true
great in fine form. Warmly recommended.
