Title: Biggest Disappointment of the Year
Product review: I have to disagree with the previous reviews of this new 2-disc set from one of the great singer/songwriters of our time. Having seen Martin be consistently astonishing in one live show after another, I was really looking forward to the new live CD. The reality turned out to be a real disappointment -- totally missing Martin's intensity, his wild-man stage energy, and not really doing justice to his awe-inspiring voice. I found the whole set rather flat and dull, and it most definitely feels padded -- the second double CD of the year (after Michelle Shocked's latest) that should have been a single disc. Martin is fantastic, but if you want a glimpse of his true genius and you can't catch a live show, check out BLACK SHEEP or WONDER BAR instead of this pale substitute. What a disappointment!
