The Waterboys live is top drawer!For anyone interested in the Waterboys...you've got to get this disc. The band is amazing in its delivery of the 18 songs on this double CD. Their ability to improvise is truely a rare find, and songs like Old England, The Thrill is Gone, The Pan Within, and Spirit are unbelievable. Mike Scott sings with such emotion and power throughout and the band is impeccable in its precision. The set closes with a wonderful and fitting song, Saints and Angels. This is a beautiful live tribute to a great band.Total InspirationWell, if you like The Waterboys, or even if you're just curious about them, you NEED this CD. Believe me, I have followed them for almost 15 years, and can easily say that this recording comes the closest to capturing the inspiration, energy, virtuosity, and absolute emotion that Mike Scott and The Waterboys signify. The sound is a bit rough (as if you were listening live at a bar), but the performances are amazing. I got goosebumps when I listened to "This is the Sea", "The Thrill is Gone" and "Pan Within" -three masterpieces performed with utmost intensity. Also, there is an excellent, slightly funky version of "Old England". Die-hard fans and neophytes, you have to get this one. |
