Customer Reviews

Not Live
No - its not Live performances form the Festivals, just album tracks from bands that played at them in 2007.

Live or Not
Can anyone who owns this album able to tell me whether this is a 'live' album or just tracks lifted from the respective band's albums?

Not live!
'Festival edition' can be misleading as a title but i can confirm this is not a live cd as the title might suggest but in fact 40 studio recordings on a double cd.

What NME are trying to recapture is the highlight of every music fans summer of 2007,some whilst sat in a tent in a field somewhere jabbering away to a load of new friends at 3am on a Sunday morning whilst wearing the same jeans for four days,whilst others merely watching, cans in hand, various festivals being beamed across television screens back at home.

Like a lot of compilation cds you will come across music you love, for me that is the likes of Razorlight, The Killers, Keane ect, music you won't like, Enter Shikari!!! and music you are so glad you stumbled across like The View, The Cribs and The Automatic.

Wherever you where during that summer of 2007, NME proudly boasts that this is the soundtrack to the best summer of your life so treasure it.
