CD Description
Originally released as a double LP set, RECORDED LIVE was aresponse to the proliferation of bootlegs of the band's concerts. It was to be as faithful a representation of the band's onstage firepower as possible. In this regard, it succeeds; it's better recorded than their breakthrough UNDEAD, and the performances are generally stronger.
The highpoint isthe jazzy, nearly 16-minute assault on "I Can't Keep From Crying". (Historical note: On the Blues Project's REUNION IN CENTRAL PARK album, also released in 1973, Al Kooper, who wrote the song, tells the audience that Ten Years After's version paid for his new car that year). There are also enthusiastic run-throughs of the band's best known numbers, including their salacious take on "Good Morning Little Schoolgirl" and (of course) their Woodstock showstopper "I'm Going Home".

Customer Reviews

Like being there yourself!
Having been to a concert with Ten Years After in the 1970's in Odense in Denmark it is wonderfull to re-listen to this great band LIVE again! Alvin Lee is one of the gratest guitarists of rock - his fast moving fingers make the small hairs in your neck rise when listening to Good Morning Little Schoolgirl!

Listless
Here was a band stuck playing a certain groove, with every audience expecting "I'm going home" a la Woodstock. By the time this late golden era TYA album came out, the cracks were beginning to show. The band sound curiously listless throughout, distanced from the audience, and simply going thru the motions.

For live TYA at its height check out Woodstock, of course, the Isle of Wight CD and if u can get hold of it, their original live album "undead". Go find.
