A true, five-star stunner. Essentially just Maria on guitar and piano, with her friend Susan helping out on backing vocals, from her spring '06 tour. I saw them when they played Philly - this CD, like that show, is wondrous, mesmerizing and a delight. If you close your eyes, you'll swear you're at the foot of the stage. Highlights include the old dependables of "Shelter" and "Breathe" (I'll never tire of hearing either), plus Richard Thompson's "Has He Got a Friend for Me," the three songs written by her late brother Bryan (Love's "Orange Skies," Lone Justice's "Don't Toss Us Away" and the gospel "Blessed Salvation") and her hypnotic rendition of Bruce Springsteen's "Backstreets." Other highlights worth mentioning: the three tracks from her sublime 2005 Peddlin' Dreams album (the title track, "Sullen Soul" and Neil Young's "Barstool Blues," presented here as a "hidden" track).

This was a much better live album than Maria's last one (Live from Hamburg). She included many classic LJ and MM hits. While she does do a little spoken intro for many of the songs it is no way excessive. If you are a fan of her old stuff you will want this CD. I saw her on the acoustic tour and I get to relive the experience every time I listen. Enjoy!

I was very glad when I heard this album was out, and even gladder when I heard this album. Probably recorded in or near L.A. with her family and friends there, and now you can be there too. So what if there is talking between the songs, it is a Maria McKee concert, and it is her show, not a juke box,(many facets to the artist). Her voice makes me melt, she could sing the phonebook even, but like all songs there are meanings behind the lyrics. So, if you want to have an intimate experience with a truely gifted artist, get this album. I just found out about her latest effort called "Late December", now I`ll have to get that one too. Sooo prolific as of late!
