1.0 out of 5 stars Dreadful -avoid this if you love this band, July 9, 2006

Sfter the live album 'Close Encounters with the West Coast' (aka 'live From Tokyo') , the FBB's numerous live recordings are a minefield.
This CD features the circa 1985 lineup of Skip Battin, Greg Harris, Sneaky Pete and Jim Goodall. The sound is generally very poor, Harris' vocals are shaky and hoarse and overall I'd suggest even fans of the post-Gram Parsons Burritos should avoid this.

For a far better document of this lineup, invest in 'Live From Europe' instead, which sounds much, much better.

1.0 out of 5 stars Mediocre, December 11, 2002

By A Customer

This review is from: Cabin Fever (Audio CD)

On a good night (and with a good lineup), the Flying Burrito Brothers can be one of the most dynamic and entertaining bands in the business. Unfortunately, however, this particular set is not one of those. This is another of those lineups put together by Sneaky Pete in order to make a few quick bucks on the concert circuit. Greg Harris, Jim Goodall, and Skip Battin round out this version of the FBB, and they are simply awful. They play a mix of FBB and Byrds standards, and play none of them particularly well. This is probably the only FBB album worse than the dreadful "Close Encounters to the West Coast", which at least featured Gib Guilbeau. This one, however, is pure .... from start to finish.

3.0 out of 5 stars Flying Burrito Bros. first Relix cd, December 10, 1999

This review is from: Cabin Fever (Audio CD)

This is a live cd recorded during the 1985 tour and issued by Relix Records, who continue to put out FBB live cd's. The lineup was Sneeky Pete on steel, Skip Battin on bass and vocals, Greg Harris on vocals, fiddle and guitar, and drummer Jim Goodall. Since both John Beland and Gib Guilbeau were not part of the '85-'86 tours, they weren't among the most memorable of the band's history. But they were very entertaining and well played. This contains several Burritos classics and Byrds classics as well, and a nice Dylan cover, but Greg Harris isn't as good a singer as FBB fans have grown accustomed to hearing. Still, "Cabin Fever" is a very enjoyable listen-- just not an essential one.
