Live on the fabulous Sunset Strip January 24, 2002 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
One of the best live rock albums. Having the fortune of seeing X a decade after-the-fact (sometime in 2000 at the Axis in Boston), I can say that they rocked just as hard as this album. Billy Zoom with his splay-legged stance and ... grin. DJ Bonebrake crashing the heads. Exene and John Doe belting out the punkabilly pop gems. The only complaint is that the original cassette release contained one of the finest live cuts that is NOT included (Someone tell me why) on the CD - True Love. But that is hardly enough to keep me from recommending this to anyone.
One album on a desert island? This one, no question. November 28, 2002 1 out of 2 found this review helpful
Without a doubt, my favorite album(CD) of all time. If you don't own it, you really should. If you do own it, maybe it's time to give it another listen. If forced to give up all the music I own save one CD, I'd pick this one without hesitating.
If you can only take one X Cd to an island- December 9, 2002 1 out of 1 found this review helpful
Take this one....Please! If you like rock and roll, punk, alt... any or all of these etc....this is the one I'd take out of my whole collection. If you want the concert experience while sorting laundry, mopping the floor, or breaking up with your lover-BUY THIS ONE!~Thanks to all the members of X for being the greatest!
One of the Best Live Alblums I ever heard September 24, 1998 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
When I think of the 10 or so best live alblums of all time this is definately up there. While most live alblums offer poor sound and distorted songs, this alblums plays it just right. This alblum makes you feel "there".
Nothing but the finest, even without Billy Z February 8, 2001 0 out of 1 found this review helpful
Despite the lack of x's original proto-rockabilly/punk innovator this album is an amazing showcase. Having seen the band many times this album does capture the energy they throw off in waves. There is no song on here that is not exceptional; from the the frenetic riffing of 'Year One' to the laid back groove of the break in 'Devil Doll'. If you are only going to own one album, this should be it. And if you own more than one, shame on you for not owning this one.
