Reviews

  • Great show, great sound quality - Harson Flenco
  • The sound is very good (8/10) and the performance is as brilliant as I remembered it (9/10). "My Dark Life" is particularly good. A couple of brief audio glitches here & there, but nothing too serious - T.J.Young
  • Very nice performance, excellent quality. Sounds more like it's from master tapes than a radio broadcast. EC is very relaxed and talkative. One of the best boots around - Francois Drouin
  • I'm going to be excessively hard on this and say that although it is an excellent boot, the sound could be better (9/10). I can also think of better song selections, it naturally relies too much on tracks from All This Useless Beauty. (Performance: 9/10)- Paul Hosken
