5 out of 5 stars Capture the essence of a live show!.......2007-06-03

No matter how long you've been listening to RBF, this album is sure to please. With awesome recordings and live antics, it appeals to any kind of listener

For older fans, it showcases their best work, with fresh recordings and pleasurable stylized versions of songs. These unique performances give a variety to those who already own the original CDs, and make the purchase worth it.

For new listeners, it invites you to see the breadth of their work. And, like a live show, it builds as it goes on, so listeners are encouraged to listen through to the end. This compelling nature of each track leading to another gives their music a great, fresh feel.

For the low cost of this album, and the immense length of it (over 3.5 hours), including a DVD with an entire show, make this a great deal all around. I can't think of another live album I've enjoyed so much.

5 out of 5 stars AMAZING!!.......2007-05-08

Best RBF album yet. Hilarious and great music. A must for any RBF fan or any human actually.

5 out of 5 stars Their best live album!.......2007-04-10

Fans of Reel big fish and fans of ska and the like, rejoice. Finally Reel big fish released a live album. Giving people the chance to experience the magic of RBF live. Although it still doesn't beat going to their show, it gives you a nice look of what they have to offer. Especially (The many versions of) S.R. gives me the feeling of standing in front of a stage where they go and have fun with music.

A must have for fans of Reel big fish and a recommendation for everyone who loves ska or just music in particular.

5 out of 5 stars If you like hepped-up ska. . . ........2007-04-10

. . .this album is for you. Few live albums catch the true feel of a band in the concert hall, but this one does. I've seen RBF live, and this CD (with bonus DVD) does one of the best jobs of replicating the experience. Okay, I'll admit, Aaron and Scott's "witty" banter gets a little annoying at times (damn, need the Tivo for music), but the energy of the songs makes it worth putting up with. This band like few others know how to engage an audience in a show, and the CD captures that experience as best as is possible. No ska band playing today can match their horns (sorry, Bosstones fans). Don't miss the chance to catch RBF live, but if you can't do that (and even if you do), this is the next best thing to being there and having the F-bombs dropped on you in person.

5 out of 5 stars It kicked my @$$.......2007-04-04

This is the best CD i have ever purchased. It sounds awesome for having been recorded live and the diolouge is pretty entertaining and just fun to listen to. 2 CDs and a dvd for 15 bucks its a steal! seriously if you even kinda sorta like ska youll effen love this cd. Its an andvanced cd so it doesnt play on older cd players...like mine. I just ripped it to my comp and then burned it and that seemed an easy way around that. realy this is an amazing album.

5 out of 5 stars Don Ross - Australian Tour.......2007-04-20

Never heard of Don Ross before in my life, I ended up organising an outing with friends to see some Live music in Warragul, Australia - "Who?, Where, When - yeah okay, that would be nice"
All the people there that night were blown away by the originality and style of Don's music - I likened the concert to a surreal almost religious experience (my friends all agreed). Bought this and another two CD's and of course the DVD (Had to!)

4 out of 5 stars DAMNIT!.......2004-01-28

The dead arent that good....I like them I own their first 10 cds or so (the arista stuff sucked) and I trade live shows so I know the jams and what not....but the dead just dont have the energy that CJ and the fish had. But it sickens me to think people buy this just for Jerry.....Country Joe rules and his folkie-voice does too. haha...Um the best fish is non-studio live stuff, sorry amazon,(Country Joe allows trading similar to the dead) but If you know any live show traders get their woodstock set or anything, but woodstock was absolutely on fire, then you doubters will understand the mighty Fish. Seriously Folks, they were massively underrated and nearly forgotten by the mainstream except fixin to die rag which has almost become a gimick......hmmm. Theres more out there especially in the san fran 60s scene than just the dead...do some research lazy potheads. haha

4 out of 5 stars 35-minute SF jamming? Why not!.......2003-02-15

Due to the presence of all the guest players on this vintage "farewell to the original lineup" CJ & Fish show, the music--especially on the closing "Donovan's Reef" jam--comes incredibly close to sounding like The Dead or The Airplane during one of their long improvisational flights. The Country Joe sound is still evident, although it had changed from the early days of "Electric Music" from the purer acid-rock of that time to add elements of soul/funk/boogie to the mix. There are some great moments here, but like almost all SF jam albums of the period there are are dull moments when the super-group of jammers are slightly off or feeling their way. Highlights include "It's So Nice To Have Your Love", the end of "Flying High", the climax of "Donovan's Reef" and Jack Casady's bass playing throughout. I've always liked Country Joe's voice, it has a humble quality and an appealing timbre. However, as good as this release is it would perhaps be even better to release their complete Monterey Pop performance, which captured them playing the best songs off of their first two albums.

5 out of 5 stars We want more!.......2002-03-01

This was a great band, individually and collectively. It's a shame that the relationships have not been maintained over the years. Ce la vie! The really great thing about this album is the jamming aspect. Always known for the lyrical and political aspects of their music, the Fish could jam it up like the best of them. Indeed Barry Melton in his new life still does. But what performances have we on this jewel of a disc. I suspect that many of the people who bought this album did so because of the appearance of Dead members Garcia and Hart or even Casady and Kaukkonen and good luck to them because they will have been exposed to some killer playing on the disc. Barry Melton is on top form throughout and plays his heart out. My only regret is that there is not more of these shows or other live Fish performances around. If anyone out there is listening...WE WANT MORE! A highly recommended alum which should grace the shelves of any afficionado of West Coast Music.

4 out of 5 stars AWESOME JAMMING! A GREAT CD FOR FANS OF 60'S ROCK!.......2000-11-09

Thank you to the reviewer who mentioned that Jerry Garcia plays in the 38 minute song "Donaovan's Reef Jam" because I promptly ordered the cd on that fact alone knowing that the incredible sounding jam would be worth the price, which it was. Luckily, there are other excellent bits of music on this high-spirited, rocking album. What fun conecerts the two shows that these songs were recorded from must have been. The only negative comments I have about Country Joe is that the

guy can't sing worth two nickles (sorry, but its true). The great music can make up for it but not all the time. Otherwise, get this and have fun listening to some fun music, PARTICULARLY the final song!

5 out of 5 stars great farewell performance.......1999-10-01

As an old Fish fan, I was always on the lookout for any old 'live' material from the vault. To my great surprise, my sister-in-law gave me this CD for Christmas '97. HOT HOT HOT !! If you're a fan of West Coast '60's psychedelia, this is a must-have album. The tunes are powerful, a direct result of having Jack Casady on bass through the entire CD. Jack drives the band hard, especially Barry Melton, and the Fish never sounded better live.

5 out of 5 stars Time Capsule.......2006-11-30

The voices and instruments, like the songs, are straight from the mid-19th century. If you want to be transported back in time 150 years to a wonderful parlor performance of Foster's songs, this is the album to do it. The voices are marvelous and trained, and one must imagine that the strict phrasing and style are what one would have expected at the time. The cheap upright piano is perfect.

But the one perfect moment for me is the ONLY good extant rendition of "Was My Brother in the Battle?". Accompanied on a harmonium or pump reed organ, if this song doesn't tempt a tear, you simply aren't a romantic.

Very highly recommended.

3 out of 5 stars Unexpected.......2005-11-26

Quality of this recording is fantastic! Performances are superb! However, they don't fit being an example of Foster's music and times. I was expecting banjos and a Mississippi Sound - therfore, very, very disappointed in this CD and consider and a waste of money. Be sure to LISTEN to a few examples to match what you are looking for and what the CD offers. I, unfortunately did not listen before I bought. I rate this low only because my expectations were shattered. This IS a fine CD if opera styles are ok for an example of this southern, 1800's composer's work.

5 out of 5 stars An album to treasure.......2004-09-23

The landmark Library of Congress album, now on enhanced CD. Years
ago, I went on a six-months field assignment to a remote area of
Africa, where I could take only what music I could carry in a vest
pocket. I chose a tape player and two albums: a recital by Perlman
and this album on tape, and was content. If you love American
music, sung poetry, beautiful singing and deeply moving musicality,
this is an album you will treasure for a lifetime.

5 out of 5 stars A classic recording of American songs.......2004-08-22

What can I say that hasn't already been said below? I only wanted to reiterate how wonderful this album is and assure the reader the sound is spectacular on CD. This is a live recording, and intentionally so, as the idea was to create a "parlor" experience as these were parlor songs to be sung by family and friends around the old upright piano. I especially liked the comment about the upright piano which, indeed, does croak and clank throughout the performance adding a note of "authenticity" without becoming obtrusive.

If only Ms. DeGaetani had graced my parlor...

5 out of 5 stars The sessions of sweet silent thought stirred.......2003-11-22

I have never heard such unadulterated extraworldy sound emanate from two human voices and what would otherwise be firewood (the period instruments played by Gilbert Kalish). It stirs profound patriotism and a deep sentimentality for our early days when a civilized people pined to find virtue by examining its own body-- the north and the south, the small town, the simple flag, and the beauty of gentile manly and womanly love expressed through equisite song. There is no other music I would rather hear 'when summoning up the remembrance of things past.' The ghost of the early American parlor will prick your skin through these simple hymns and you may escape for a moment our troubled and busy times.

Amazon.com essential recording

The magic of Sweet Honey in the Rock lies in the pulse and spirit of the group's performances. No recording can totally re-create the net of energy this powerful collective of women's voices casts over its audience, but Live at Carnegie Hall comes darn close. Here the group's members are free to develop songs as long as the spirit moves them--much longer, typically, than on their studio albums. Listen to the driven growls in the traditional folk chant "Run, Run, Mourner Run," the solemn contemplation of "Wade in the Water," and the circular wails and stirring percussion of "Denko" to feel Sweet Honey's spirit pounding through your bones. Live at Carnegie Hall also features several instructive yet tender introductions from founder Bernice Johnson Reagon, an amazingly theatrical presentation of Sonia Sanchez's poem "Letter to Dr. Martin Luther King," and a jazzy a cappella version of Paul Elouard's sensual poem "Peace." --Sally Weinbach

Amazon.com

Recorded in Manhattan on November 7, 1987, this double live album includes 70 minutes of music and spoken introductions. There's a representative balance of hymns, blues, protest songs, and Third World influences. The group's ability to stretch out songs is illustrated by a seven-minute version of "Wade in the Water" and an eight-minute version of "Letter to Dr. Martin Luther King" (one of three songs on the album composed for the PBS special The Dream and the Drum). --Geoffrey Himes

this was a recording that i had years ago and finally felt the need to repurchase on cd.
if there was any recording that one would require to cover your Sweet Honey In The Rock needs, this has to be the one....it is quite simply flawless...
the energy of their live performance that comes across is amazing...the group is amazing and having had the luck to experience them live, to have a recording that matches that energy, majk & vitality is truly fortunate...

do not hesitate to acquire this masterpiece...

4 out of 5 stars Every minute a pleasure.......2000-06-22

I was browsing Amazon to see if I could get my hands on this amazing CD. (I'm glad to know I can.) From beginning to end, each song is riveting and entertaining. "Beatitudes" is one of the most beautiful songs you'll ever hear. "Dear Martin" is a wonderful performance of a poem. If you enjoy a variety of music, incredible harmonies, and worldly, timely subjects, you'll love this CD.

These guys don't simply "sing acappella". They enrich acappella. They give acappella an attitude! Acappella is no longer simply for die-hard acappella fans. Acappella is for everyone! Ever get tired of not being able to hear the words over the music? Well your frustrations can end right there!

Let your CD player run till it stops; you won't want to miss the hidden track! Their all new "Created For This" has the power to really move the listener, and as it clearly states: "...".

I admit, I was a tad skeptical going into the purchase of this album. I've been a Hot Rize fan for some time now, but have generally kept away from Red Knuckles based on the thought of it tainting the image in my brain of the tight, flawless grass band that is Hot Rize. What I found upon first listen, and something that strengthens with each listen, is that not only do Red Knuckles play western swing, or rockabilly, or whatever you want to call it, but they do it as good or better than any band my ears have ever heard. Case in point, just sample "Wabash Cannonball." What you'll find are tight rhythms, thumping bass lines and a voice that seems so incredibly fit for the style of music, you'll wonder what it's been doing servicing itself to bluegrass. Is Red Knuckles better than Hot Rize? I think it's apples and oranges, but what I can say is that both bands deserve a listen, if for anything, to witness a phenomenal band at its best.

5 out of 5 stars Red Knuckles Rock!.......2006-02-25

Big fan of Hot Rize and Tim O'Brien. Red Knuckles and the Trailblzers give us a different and thoroughly entertaining and convincing alternative side to the Hot Rize boys. Rockabilly may, in fact, be their true calling.

5 out of 5 stars Campy, yet great.......2006-02-23

If you are a fan of the history of music, like me -- you do not want to be without this album. The covers of some standards bring new life to the music. It is clear by the nature and by the history of this group that they are campy, yet the more you listen to it the more it appears as an actual art. An example of the leangth to which they go to infuse the music with the maximum ammount of fun is that they make up a totally fake band for the old country and western sound. I have seen them live and know that they take turns leaving stage and becoming the alter-ego. Hot Rize/ Trailblazers is a lovely experiance and should be a part of every collection.

5 out of 5 stars "Classic Country!".......1998-09-16

Makes you want to get up and have a good time. Voices and instruments blend effortlessly. Highly recommend.

5 out of 5 stars one of the best Hot Rize CDs out there!.......1998-07-27

this is one of the best red nuckles and hot rize cds out there. It gives the listener a mix of the traditional bluegrass and the more honky tonkish music. Tim O'Brian and Red realy can sing.

5 out of 5 stars I was there!.......2004-01-22

I was there in Denmark August 1991, at Skandbourg. That's the farthest I have ever travled to see Walter play. I do a road trip every year to catch a few shows now that he tours in the US. Walter is so amazing. Not only is he a guitar god he has an incredible voice to match. Check out www.waltertrout.com go to the questbook and see what his fans (TROUTHEADS) have to say about Walter Trout. Go get his DVD 'Relentless' and see for yourselves. Seeing is believing. Anytime he comes within 500 miles of you get there some way somehow, you won't be disappointed. In fact you'll be amazed.

Live concerts seem to catch the beat of the moment and this record is no exception. You like guitar blues like Stevie Ray, you'll like this album for sure. I've enjoyed it now for, almost, the past ten years and never seem to loose interest.
This album comes highly recommended - just listen and be convinced.

    5 out of 5 stars Splendid relaxing CD.......2005-01-31

    I am not a guitarist, so I cannot really comment knowledgeably on Gerald Garcia's achievement here, but I feel I must add my voice to those who think this is a splendid CD: Naxos have always been good for a surprise, and I was surprised indeed to find them releasing music like this in 1988! The center of the disc, in more than one sense, is Heitor Villa-Lobos, with Garcia playing all five of his Preludes and his Choro No. 1 (which, due to a printing error on the cover, is accredited to Garcia himself as arranger, but that is not correct, he only arranged the following traditional melodies in the style of Savio). Around this center are arranged pieces by Bonfá, Jobim, Savio, Pernambuco, Almeida, Baden-Powell and Machado - all names that I had never heard of until I purchased this disc out of curiosity. The music is relaxing, only the Villa-Lobos is truly classical, and the sound (the recording was made at a studio in Heidelberg, Germany) is excellent, worthy of a full-price disc. To cap it all, there are Gerald Garcia's own notes giving plenty of background information. You can't go wrong here!

    3 out of 5 stars Rhythm is way off........2004-02-24

    Great music (but not the jobim pieces). ---Like so many classical guitarists he obviously lacks rhythm- particularly on the *Jobim* pieces. if your releasing a cd of music from brazil and you are a classical guitarist from england you should have more understanding of the music. -However it is only seven bucks and there is some definite magic on this cd.~

    5 out of 5 stars And the price is right, too........2003-05-24

    This is an exquisitely beautiful album that captures the very essence of Brazil.

    Of all the solo guitar albums in my collection, this is the most expressive and poignant.

    The performance is masterful, intricate and sensitive. There is a wide mastery of inflection and style.

    Gerald Garcia is one of the true masters of solo guitar at any level much less Brazilian. (This album was recorded in 1988.)

    So treat yourself to the best 72'46" of listening pleasure.

    5 out of 5 stars Bonfa and Jobim: what a double header!.......2001-06-07

    I met the two of them in the past. I saw their shows and I bought their recordings. They never disappointed me, on the contrary: I always was amazed by their style and classy quality of sound. Now they return, together, to make us enjoy life in this way and mode: pleasantness in sound. If this would not suffice, there is a bonus, the performance of Gerald Garcia. Splendiferous! GF

    4 out of 5 stars He's pretty good!.......2000-07-04

    This is a nice C.D. Fans of the Brasilian Classical guitar style will love it. Purists will probably have a lot of trouble with it. Gerald Garcia is from Canada originally (don't quote me on that though) - it seems there are still strong academic overtones in his playing. However, it's a great collection of Brasilian pieces which spans classical composers to Bossa nova and in between. What I like about this album is the fact that most pieces presented by Garcia are his own arrangements. It's truly a unique recording (which is rare in the classical guitar world). His greatest work is on the smaller, traditional Brasilian pieces. These are really charming rustic melodies which were first harmonized by Isaias Savio and very easy to play. But, Garcia takes them to a higher level - more technically demanding without ever losing the essence of the original works. In fact, with all due respect to Mestre Savio, they are great improvements on the originals.

    There is a generous number of tracks here, displaying the wealth of work by a great guitarist. More importantly, the repetoire on the album moves away from the standard Albeniz, Granados, Tarrega, Sor collections that so many classical guitarists feel compelled to release. The pieces are probably familiar to most classical guitarists who enjoy playing Brasilian music, but, for those who've never heard or played the works of Almeida, Baden-Powell, Savio or Machado it will be a pleasant surprise. And for people who just like nice music, it will be a fantastic investment.
