Title: The best that they can do?
Review: Oh, how disappointing. If this is the best the Crue can do, it's little wonder they left a live album until now. The production on this is woeful. Granted some of the stuff was recorded in the early 80s when they were first starting out, but one would expect that the material recorded later would be of better quality. Vince just can't cut it live. He can't keep up with the pace of the songs and ends up just making noises that follow the tunes. The guitar is up and down and the bass is almost non-existant. This had the potential to be huge. They have had a long career and an enormous back catalogue to choose from, as evidenced by the track selection, but poor quality has let it down. There are better Hard Rock live albums out there. Only for the die hard Crue fan. One star for a live album, finally. And one for the Track listing.
