Product Description

nothing to trend and fashion, and everything to personal spirit,

Essential To Own
I bought the two tape version of Alchemy back in '84 and only threw the
tapes away - reluctantly - when they wouldn't play any more about 12
years later. At the time I did not expect to to get another copy.
However with the re-release I can once again listen to one of the best
live albums I have... |

Eric Clapton Unplugged [LIVE]

Warner (Audio CD) - August 31, 1992 |
Amazon.co.uk Review
Clapton caught the "unplugged" trend just at the right time, when the
public was hungry to hear how well rock stars and their material could
hold up when stripped of elaborate production values. Clapton himself
seemed baffled by the phenomenon, especially when picking up the armload
of Grammys ... |

Why was it not an official release over here?
I first got to know The Corrs when I saw them in Manchester in 1996 as
Celine Dion's support band and since then, I have took notice of what
they've released but I have only recently got into them, as I have
broadened my horizons as far as music is concerned.
Out of all their albums I have, which are... |

Robbie Williams Live at Knebworth is a lasting souvenir of the
biggest ever live music event that the UK had ever seen, when in Summer
2003 some 375,000 people made their way to Knebworth to let Mr Williams
entertain them. Recorded over the three nights, it doesn't contain the
full two-hour set list... |

Simple Minds - Live in the City of Light was recorded at Le Zenith in
Paris in August '86 and originally released in the spring of '87. It is
a definitive live album of its era and for Simple Minds as a band. The
Album is a superb snapshot of the 'minds' at their stadium filling best

It's difficult not to feel jealous of the audience who were present for
these shows at the Blues Alley club in January, 1996. Eva Cassidy's
voice has the soul of Aretha Franklin, the smoky melancholy of Billie
Holiday, the raw passion of Janis Joplin all rolled into one--and she'll
never make... |

This Live CD is a Japanese import that came out around the time of Live

MTV Unplugged at its very very best
People say that live songs are always better than album versions and
this album really proves that. Great acts like Alanis Morrisette, Eric
Clapton and Bryan Adams all feature in this outstanding album. A smooth
CD to chill out to in the evenings or on a hot summers afternoon. The

To say that Springsteen's live shows with the E Street Band were
legendary is the height of understatement. On a good night, the set
might extend to three and four hours of exhilarating, pulse-pounding
rock & roll. How best to capture that on CD? Or was it possible at all?

Keith Richards takes this album where it's going - all the rest is
commentary.
The commentary is of course all-out brilliant, the perfect setting
for a man intent on wresting salvation from his music. Woody is a fine
foil for Keith, and the whole band (as well as the mix, praise be)
defers to the... |

Cutting the electricity only really began to sound like a good idea when
Kurt Cobain picked up his acoustic on Nirvana's Unplugged In New York
sessions, and on the whole it tends to bring out the worst in an artist
and their audience--muso tendencies, obscure cover versions, and a
reverential hush... |

The greatest live recording in rock & roll history was--officially, at

Poor choice
Put it this way, if I'd bought this one first I probably wouldn't have
bought Vol.1, which would have been a shame. Surely there was much
better material available than this very patchy, mostly mediocre
collection. |

One Wild Night? Well, that's not strictly true, as this live
album was recorded on several different nights at a series of Bon Jovi
concerts spanning three decades. But why be pedantic when the result is
a live album that effectively doubles as a greatest hits collection? Bon
Jovi's songs have... |

It's been said that Tim Buckley was the most powerful singer of his

Dream Letter makes a hell of a defence. At the very least, his voice
could do things few could: it soared beyond any familiar register and
held notes long past the... |

One of Dylan's best
There isn't much to say about this CD other than it's just one of many
of Dylan's live concerts/tours CDs in which he demonstrates his
unmatched (by a long distance) skill and energy in live performing. I
don't like to refer to Dylan being in 'his prime' or at his 'best'
because he's still out... |

I have taken so long since the release and the buy of this album, but I
have to say it is much better than Dive in. Darius has mature signs and
he works better with his voice. Altough I have liked "Kinda love", I
guess it is the weaker song in the album. It is worth to listen to
