Title: Where's the US Release?
Product review: It's about time the Chili Peppers let loose a live album, and this one was worth the wait. John and Flea are in top form and exhibit consistantly phenomenal playing and improvisation. Of the new songs, "Rolling Sly Stone," is a keeper and harkens back to Freaky Styley while "Leverage of Space" maintains the quality of the Peppers' current style. All of the cover songs are pretty amusing. If you're in the US, this is more than worth the extra effort and/or money to obtain a copy.The only things that keep me from giving this five stars are:1) While very good, Anthony sound a little too professional to convincingly rock and roll at times (once again John and Flea mostly make up for this2) Chad's drum solo puts images of Spinal Tap into my head; the rest of his playing is top-notch.3) Why are there no older songs? Mother's Milk deserves a nod or two if nothing else.
