Customer Reviews
great live cd
Just finished listening to this cd and must say that it shows why Steeleye Span are still the kings[and queen] of folk rock.
I have been following them since they started and must say that I wish my looks were as good as Maddy voice,it is still fresh and clear as when she started all those years ago[I wont say how many!!].Steeleye
Span are a great group to see live and this cd shows that they sound as good live as todays machine made so called great boy and girl bands.
There nothing new you can say about this live recording,the harmonies are spot on and if you didnt know you'd think it had been made in a recording studio,one word against it.....The Blackleg Miners sound better without music..having said that this was the only downside of this cd. Buy it and enjoy Folk Rock at its best.
Superb!
The 5 star rating I've given this CD is for the music, performance, and sound quality. If truth be told, I bought this CD for my dad who has been a long time Steeleye Span fan from when they first began in the 1969. I know it's very uncool to like the same music as your parents, but this band really is that good! The singing by all members is great, especially Maddy Prior who has such a rich voice, and instrumentally the band perform impeccably well. I possess many live albums of other bands, and few sound as good Steeleye Span. Fortunately the sound mixers knew exactly what they were doing, because they've managed to capture this live performance beautifully. You'll know what I mean when you hear the crisp clear audio and dynamic bass.
Personally I much prefer this live CD over the studio recordings, because it sounds more vibrant, energetic, and just as tight rhythmically, which is a testimony to the tremendous talent of this group.
