Product Description

The latest release from the acclaimed Live From Austin, TX series of releases from the vaults of the award-winning PBS Austin City Limits TV show.

Dave Alvin s world lies somewhere on the margins the seedy bus stations, bars and endless boulevards of L.A., and the reality of California s underbelly of discontent. Alvin was originally a founding member of the punk/roots scene band the Blasters with his brother Phil. Over the years since he s continued to sharpen his skills as a singer, songwriter and musician. This Austin City Limits episode, recorded on January 29, 1999, includes songs from his current album at the time, Blackjack David, his best statement to date about love, hope and despair.

4 out of 5 stars Best Live Dave Alvin CD.......2007-06-25

Great CD, superior to Out in California and Great American Music Galaxy, with blazing renditions of Out in California and especially, Fourth of July.

5 out of 5 stars Best yet from Dave Alvin.......2007-05-24

This may be the most well produced CD in recent years. Taken from the television show "Austin City Limits", it may be Dave Alvin's best effort to date. If you enjoyed "Public Domain", "King of California" and "West of the West" you will love this. With a combination of great rock and roll and contemporary folk, this CD hits the mark and more. In a time when many musicians just "crank it up" and play full tilt all night, the dynamics in "Barn Burnin'", "Mary Brown" and "Blackjack David" are an aural pleasure to behold. When Dave breaks into the chorus from the Sam Cooke classic "Cupid" at the end of "Border Radio", you'll get goose bumps. His rock and roll version of the Woody Guthrie classic "Do-Re-Me" is unsurpassed by anything released in the last 20 years.

Simply put, Dave writes beautiful songs about love and loneliness. His ability to lament the life that could have been along with his ability to celebrate the life that is, is inspirational at least, and quite possibly awe inspiring.

The musicians assembled for this recording are outstanding. In particular drummer Bobby Lloyd Hicks (arguably the best rock and roll drummer alive today) shows once again how less can be more. Another drummer may have overplayed these songs, but Lloyd is at his finest on this CD. Together with bassist Gregory Boaz, they form one of the tightest rhythm sections ever recorded.

If I could give this CD 10 stars I'd still try to give it 11.


3 out of 5 stars Take some NO-DOZE.......2007-05-15

I am a BIG Dave Alvin and Blasters fan and have been for 25 years. The songs chosen to be played here are on the mellow side of the tracks. Big mistake. A couple of the songs lean towards the good rockin' that Dave is so good at. The rest of them will put you to sleep. The reaction of the crowd shows that most of them agree with me. If this band was anyone else, I would give it 2 stars.

What k.d. lang branded "torch and twang" might serve as a starting point for a description of Neko Case's music, but the uniqueness of a style that incorporates country roots, punk attitude, and supper-club sophistication defies classification. Her 2003 debut performance on the Austin City Limits series (also available on DVD) showcases Case's artistry in a stripped-down setting, with stand-up bassist Tom Ray serving as a one-man rhythm section, Jon Rauhouse providing multi-instrumental virtuosity on banjo and a variety of guitars, and Kelly Hogan supplying impeccable harmony support. Case was touring at the time behind her Blacklisted album, though the setlist strays farther. On "Hex," written by Freakwater's Catherine Irwin, Case and Hogan could pass as the Louvin Sisters, while Bob Dylan's "Buckets of Rain" receives a languid reading punctuated by Rauhouse's Hawaiian lap-steel guitar. "Deep Red Bells" emphasizes the western side of country & western, with the more experimental "Maybe Sparrow" combining banjo and edgy atmospherics. Throughout, the bare-bones arrangements let the songs breathe and Case's voice soar. --Don McLeese

5 out of 5 stars What A Songbird.......2007-05-23

Beautiful album from a wonderful singer. She mixes country and folk as well as anyone. You would never believe this is a live recording. Don't nit-pik - just listen and enjoy.

5 out of 5 stars This generation's Patsy Cline.......2007-03-26

Neko Case is this generation's Patsy Cline only with more attitude. Her appeal crosses over multiple genre's but you can't quite categorize her. Pick up any of her catalog and you'll find yourself searching for more.

4 out of 5 stars In Case of Neko.......2007-03-24

For some stupid reason I thought the songs would be new. Imagine my chagrin when I learned this was taped in 2003! Anyway, she is definately talented and I love her voice. However, Fox Confessor is my favorite of hers. Live at Austin is a good buy and I would recommend it or anything by her to anyone.

5 out of 5 stars great songs and a unique voice.......2007-03-14

This is my first Neko album and boy what an introduction! Neko has a unique voice with a little country twang in some songs and a sultry blues sound in others. It tough to identify her style, but if I had to I would say its bluegrass. I can't wait to get another one of her albums.

5 out of 5 stars Top Performance from a Rising Star.......2007-03-08

Neko Case shines in this live performance recorded at her debut on the television show "Austin City Limits." The recording and production values of this mini-concert are top notch, providing a balanced mix of vocals and instruments, including some stellar steel guitar work by Jon Rauhouse. Kelly Hogan, an accomplished lead singer in her own right, offers up backing melodies that seem to perfectly complement Ms. Case's range. But it is Neko Case's voice that steals the show. She sings with a genuine emotional intensity on "Favorite," "Behind the House" (which was previously unreleased, and in my humble opinion, one of her best songs to date, along with "Knock Loud" and "Hex," that is rarely heard in today's music. She also does a moody version of the Emmylou Harris classic "Wayfaring Stranger." In short, if this performance is your introduction to the music of Neko Case, it will have you back online shopping for more of her great work in little time.

Amazon.com

In this 2003 performance from the Austin City Limits series (also available on DVD), New England's Susan Tedeschi demonstrates a range that extends well beyond her blues base. Following the blueprint employed by Bonnie Raitt a few decades earlier, she covers John Prine's "Angel from Montgomery" (a signature tune for Raitt), inserting a snippet from the Grateful Dead's "Sugaree." The piano balladry of her "Wrapped in the Arms of Another" could fit just fine on a Raitt album. The set also finds her sampling from the songbooks of Sly Stone ("You Can Make It If You Try"), Bob Dylan ("Don't Think Twice, It's All Right"), and Stevie Wonder ("Love's in Need of Love Today"), in addition to the more straightforward blues of Koko Taylor ("Voodoo Woman"). Though Tedeschi's stinging lead guitar provides the focus, she receives strong support from a band featuring the interplay of electric pianist Jason Crosby (who doubles on violin) and William Green on Hammond B-3 organ. Highlights include a tribute to jam-band inspiration Col. Bruce Hampton on "Hampmotized" and the simmering "Wait for Me," with its echoes of Aretha Franklin. Tedeschi has yet to show the suppleness as a vocalist to complement her guitar chops, but the musical range she displays here bodes well for her artistic development. --Don McLeese

Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Outstanding music marred by weak mixing.......2006-12-31

I've been a Susan Tedeschi fan for a while, and I was so excited to get this album for Christmas -- and overall, it's great music. Tedeschi is an outstanding blues/rock musician, and she's in great form with this recording from Austin City Limits.

I was really surprised, though, when I popped it in and heard nothing but Tedeschi's singing and the organ/synth. Yeah, the drums are present. During solos, you can sort of hear Tedeschi's excellent guitar. But the predominant instrument in the mix is that ever-present synth, and that is just not the right mix for her music.

Tedeschi is so good that this album is still excellent -- but more for the hard-core fans who can appreciate the alternate sound. The recording/mixing wasn't up to par, so if you've never heard Tedeschi before, go with one of her studio albums.

4 out of 5 stars Not Perfect, but VERY Good!.......2006-06-11

Ms Tedeschi's rendition of "Angel From Montgomery" is worth the price of this CD. WONDERFUL!!! As great as Bonie Raitt does with the old John Prine tune, Tedeschi does better. Soulful and full of emotion. You feel the emptiness and the desire for that reprive. Just great!

5 out of 5 stars Like a live best of.......2006-02-08

With material from all her earlier CDs and a Sly and Family Stone cover not previously available, this serves as a live greatest hits or best of. I've seen her a few times live and this is very represenataive of her concert work also. The guitar work is fine but you can see the later material is emphasizing her vocals more than her playing.

5 out of 5 stars Susan Tedeski Rocks!.......2005-10-02

This is a fabulous CD of some of Susan's best songs! GREAT music with GREAT vocals as well as GREAT "jammin"!!! When you play it in your car, play it loud with the windows down to really appreciate it!!!! You'll be "jammin", too!!

5 out of 5 stars Susan Tedeschi-live from Austin.......2005-08-24

Seeing is better than just hearing; get the DVD version of this and see her blow away the blues. Her speaking voice is deceiving of her singing voice but style and skill all the way.
She is another pioneer woman in the blues world and has proven herself skilled and talented.
A must "see".....

    Product Description

    From the vaults of the award-winning PBS Austin City Limits TV show, this is the latest release in the acclaimed Live From Austin, TX series.

    Rock and Roll s the thing, and Jerry Lee s the King... or so said an English fan once upon a time somewhere. Elvis fans might dispute that title, but nobody else in the history of popular music would dare call himself The Killer. Of all the legends who came out of Sun Records in the 1950s Elvis, Johnny Cash, Carl Perkins, Roy Orbison no one would have bet the last one standing would be the pill-popping, whiskey-guzzling, gun-waving hellion from Ferriday, La. Except The Killer, of course.

    Jerry Lee Lewis took black rhythm & blues, white gospel and other funky Mississippi sounds and turned them into rock and roll. But Jerry Lee s life also is, and has always been, his piano; he has kicked and banged and set on fire (literally) many of them over the course of six-plus decades.

    He almost never made it to Austin City Limits. He cancelled one appearance, and only weeks before this recording on October 17, 1983, his wife died in a freak swimming pool accident at their home. But he did make it, and what we have here is one of the most amazing performances ever to go down on the ACL stage. Throughout the day he was a perfect gentleman, showing up on time and acting very graciously to one and all, but once he hit the stage, all hell broke loose. The songs speak for themselves; they re ALL here.

    For many years later, Jerry Lee would carry a tape of this show to play for friends (and himself, many times). When producers tried to book him again for a return performance, the response was, Jerry Lee doesn t think he could possibly do a better show.

    This CD captures all the hits and more, and includes songs that were never aired on the original TV broadcast.

    At the tail end of "My Kind of Soldier," Robert Pollard ebulliently proclaims "Guided by Voices taught the world that you can suck and still rule." He's not completely kidding, since his band made a point of recording whatever short, sharp, shocked thing, it seems, that popped into his head. Here you get 30 tracks, from the brief and inspired "Gold Star for Robot Boy" to the sloppily slurred "Glad Girls," and the tunes run the gamut. Fractured and chaotic on moment, then inspired the next, the band shines most cohesively on "Gonna Have to Die," just as Pollard started getting truly hammered. There are better introductions to GBV, but one could hold forth pretty convincingly that this is the way they should be experienced--live and drunken and sometimes fumbling and, no matter what, always inspired and inspiring. ----Andrew Bartlett

    Product Description

    The latest release from the acclaimed Live From Austin, TX series of releases from the vaults of the award-winning PBS Austin City Limits TV show.

Recorded on live on 24 tracks, this special 2CD set features 30 songs from their entire performance. Many of the songs were never aired on the TV broadcast.

    4 out of 5 stars Ultimate representative album of Guided by Voices.......2007-07-04

    Robert Pollard, singer song-writer of Dayton, OH-based Guided by Voices, decided to disband the group after the excellent 2004 album "Half Smile of the Decomposed" and held a victory lap of some sort with the band's last tour in Fall, 2004.

    "Live from Austin" (2 CDs, 30 tracks, 90 min.) brings in its totality one of the last shows of the band (November 9, 2004). Guided by Voices in its 20 year run released a multitude of albums, it was really impossible to keep track of all their music, but of course 1994's "Bee Thousand" album remains the stand-out. This collection is a great summary of it all, in a live setting, as it should be. It's hard to pinpoint highlights as such, as the songs whiz by one after another, but check out "Cut Out Witch", featuring Pete York. Pollard's in between songs banter is fun, if non-sensical. At one point he shouts "If you suck, you still rule!" and that just about summarizes it!

    I caught the band on their "victory lap" at the Southgate House in Newport (just across from Cincinnati), and it was quite the show. Since disbanding GBV, Pollard has gone on to release a number of solo records. Check out in particular last year's "From a Compound Eye", which was one of Pollard's best in a long time.

    4 out of 5 stars Not quite peak form.......2007-06-18

    The Austin City Limits release constitutes the first official live cd from GBV (not counting the semi-bootleg "Jellfish Reflector" from 1996) and that alone makes a worthwhile release.

    The first disc is generally solid although the set list leans a little bit too heavily on lesser material. The performances are solid although too many of Doug Gillard's guitar leads are buried in the mix. While song selection improves on the second disc, song quality declines, most likely due to the band's copious drinking. Lowlights include a sloppy, slowed-down "Glad Girls" and Robert Pollard screwing up the lyrics to "I Am A Scientist," arguably the band's finest and most famous song.

    Still, there's a lot to like here, especially for long time fans who have always wanted a real live cd with the Pollard/Gillard/Farley lineup. If this isn't the best possible show, its more than good enough. (Note: Those new to the GBV experience will get a better picture of what the band was about onstage with the "Electrifying Conclusion" DVD which documents all four hours of the band's final show.

    4 out of 5 stars Do not start here if you are on the fence about GBV.......2007-06-02

    This live album is a fan's dream...one great song after another. However, not surprisingly, Pollard gets progressively more drunk towards the end of the show, culminating in an absolutely horrible version of "Glad Girls" (although you could certainly argue that it was intentionally horrible!). Having said that, man there are some great songs on here and it's nice to have live versions for once. I saw the Austin City Limits show on t.v. but this has much more material on it. Now, as the title of my review suggests, if you are a newbie or if you are undecided about whether Pollard is a genius or just a low-fi hack, this is definitely NOT the place to start. There is the "greatest hits" CD which I think has some pretty representative choices on it (even if it is all over the map, again not surprisingly for GBV). I would start there, and get this CD much further---once you've been converted! (By the way, I used to be in the camp that thinks that Pollard writes two or three good songs per album and a whole bunch of crap...I have come to realize that his hit to miss ratio is MUCH better than that and he is not overrated, by any means. I am really enjoying this live album and glad they put it out.....)

    5 out of 5 stars YEAH!.......2007-05-17

    The first disc of this set is impeccable! My jaw dropped! The sound is excellent......I never saw it on TV and when I did it was only the last five minutes.....Im not deaf--tons of mistakes but all the songs are played with the spirit that made this band so great. IT OPENS WITH DEMONS ARE REAL. Enough said!

    5 out of 5 stars Thanks to Pollard or whoever for releasing this........2007-05-15

    I don't normally watch Austin City Limits (always seem to catch it when it's a rerun of Cowboy Junkies, Lyle Lovett or Stevie Ray Vaughn darn the luck), but I stopped one Saturday night to see this band on there doing this song "Glad Girls." Turns out it was a longtime "heard of but heard nothing by" band, Guided By Voices. Picked up the album it was on, but it didn't come close to this live version (apparently their shows are legendary for Rob Pollard drinking his weight in alcohol) So I'm glad this is finally out on CD. I've come to love the rest of their songs and feel a right schmuck for not getting into the band during its lifetime.

      I believe you will find yourself worshipping along, caught up in the power of the music.

      5 out of 5 stars Hey American Idol, I've found the 'wow' factor!.......2007-03-08

      I think everyone who hears Chris Tomlin will pretty much agree that he is an awesome singer and preformer but for me this CD put him over the top. The first song I heard from this CD was actually on the radio, the live version of How Great Is Our God. What an awesome song! Even though you will find all these songs spread out over his other CDs, this is a must for everyone's library because of the participation of the crowd as well as the way that Chris really seems to help us all to step right into the throne room of God.

      5 out of 5 stars Great CD!!!.......2007-01-20

      I love this CD!!! It's probably my favorite praise and worship CD right now. It's got all the hits and a wonderul annointing. Awesome!!!

      5 out of 5 stars Awesome!.......2007-01-04

      This CD is a must have for all fans of contemporary Christian music, not just fans of Chris Tomlin. The live versions of How Great is Our God and If God is on Our Side are simply fantastic.

      5 out of 5 stars A Master at the peak of his craft.......2007-05-07

      What can I write that hasn't already been said of Eric Johnson?

      Hmmm... Well, if you appreciate some really wonderful and melodic progressive rock -- not the modern reflections of that classic form -- but truly inspired and creative blending of many styles of music, then this performance DVD is well worth the price. You will come to appreciate the attention to detail that Eric has applied to crafting not just 'songs', but compositions of the highest calibre.

      Oh, and you don't have to be a musician to appreciate good music. This stuff is for everyone who loves a well written tune.

      'Nuff said!

      5 out of 5 stars A Masterpiece from a master guitarist.......2007-03-10

      I saw Eric Johnson for the first time shortly after the release of White Cliffs of Dover as a single. He opened for Rush. I remember Eric's performance. I don't remember Rush's.

      This is a great recording and shows the diversity of Eric's taste and style.

      5 out of 5 stars Great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.......2007-01-27

      I love this CD and the DVD is awesome!!!!!!! His versions of Jimi Hendrix songs are great as well. The beginning of "Trail of Tears" really shows how talented and how clean Eric plays.

      5 out of 5 stars thank you, austin city limits!.......2006-08-17

      This is the cd I play at night to scare the deer away from the road (I live way out in the country); just open the car window, crank the volume and rock on. I walk into work saying, "What?" Sure is worth the jangled eardrums, though.From the opening "Righteous" to the melodic and terrific "Cliffs Of Dover" Eric does not leave you sleepy at all. This is from early in his career, but having seen him last April, I am happy to report he has lost none of his fire. I have never heard a bad rendition of "Camel's Night Out" and the one on this disc does not disappoint. Also nice is "Trail Of Tears" and "Desert Rose"; "Steve's Boogie" is a snappy little gig that could be longer, in my opinion;and there's the somewhat cool-jazz of "East Wes". I do tend to skip over the cover of Jimi Hendrix's "Are You Experienced?" - SRV was the only one, to me, who was able to cover Jimi well enough to listen to. This cd, however, is still five-star as far as I'm concerned.

      5 out of 5 stars Guitar Mastery.......2006-08-08

      For some reason, Eric Johnson waited a long time to release this gem. Recorded in 1988, this live outing displays Mr. Johnson in top form as a virtuoso of the electric guitar.

      His tone is instantly recognizible without ever sounding cliche, cloying, or boring. Like fellow Texan (now no longer of this earth), Stevie Ray Vaughn, Mr. Johnson can seemingly play lead and rhythm guitar simultaneously. I would like to see the video to understand how he accomplishes this. (And I did see him live at the kick-off concert in Denver of his tour with Joe Satriani a few months ago. It was superb, but they only let him play for one hour.) His transitions between various tones are seamless and masterful. His solos are fluid, firey, and always well thought out. There is no shredding for shreedding sake here. Mr. Johnson is far too tasteful for that kind of exhibitionism. (I won't name names.)

      Mr. Johnson is supported strongly by bass and drums. His singing is sparse and not annoying, although not on the level of his playing. (Who could expect that?) The Hendrix covers are superb. Few people can pull that off.

      To show his versatility, Mr. Johnson gives a beautiful rendition of Wes Montgomery's classic, "East Wes." Few rock guitarists would ever even attempt that.

        As the ebullient ringleader of this all-star Lone Star quartet, Doug Sahm tells this 1990 Austin City Limits crowd that "it's rock and roll conjunto time!" Such a description barely hints at the raucous vitality of the band's bilingual, Tex-Mex border music. The set (also available on DVD) finds Freddy Fender resurrecting his country smashes "Wasted Days and Wasted Nights" and "Before the Next Teardrop Falls," while the tremulous vocals of some of his earlier, regional hits suggest that he is to Tejano music what Aaron Neville is to New Orleans soul. Conjunto accordion kingpin Flaco Jimenez provides rollicking instrumental accents throughout, while singing with Fender on some of the Spanish-language material. From the rock and roll side, Sahm and keyboardist Augie Meyers reprise their hits from the Sir Douglas Quintet's 1960s heyday, with "She's About a Mover" and "Mendocino" steeped in the same musical roots they share with Fender and Jimenez. Such raucous, festive interplay plainly enjoys a home-field advantage in Austin, where the performance finds the foursome hailed as conquering heroes. (The release serves as a memorial to Sahm, who died in 1999 and to whom the album is dedicated.) --Don McLeese

        Album Description

        5 out of 5 stars Tex-Mex At it's Best !!.......2007-03-27

        This is my all time favorite "cheer-me-up" album. As soon as the music starts, I just start smiling. I love the enthusiasm and the great talent that is displayed. The mingling of voices from both north and south of the border is a tribute to our southern society, showing that we all can and do get along wonderfully when we put our minds to it.

        5 out of 5 stars Impossible to find something better than this!!.......2006-12-30

        I already wrote a review on this incredible musical event after watching
        the show on DVD so my opinion on the CD version cannot be different.
        The only sad thing about this is that both Doug and Freddy are not with
        us anymore but we have their wonderful 1990 Austin Texas concert and
        we can either listen to it or watch the incredible musical abilities
        of this foursome. The best Conjunto Tex-Mex rock & roll gathering ever!!!
