 Rating:  - SUPERB!!Short and sweet......this is a magnificent compilation. It has been years since I have enjoyed listening to a CD to the point of having to pry it from my machine. Can we please see a companion DVD!! Rating:  - Worth adding to your Crows collectionThis live record is a great demonstration of the band's musicianship.

If your looking for an album of mainstream, radio exhausted songs performed live by the band, ...

Well, when I finally got it I was a little surprised when I saw the track list, most of the songs (if not the entire album) are what are commonly called b-sides, they were never singles. So in this album you will find live ... Read More |
