5.0 out of 5 stars Where In The World..., June 20, 2002

...has the musical talent gone? The five men of Rockapella have talent in overflow. In a society where shameless displays of special effects, fanfare, hoopla, and digital alterations qualify as "music," it is refreshing to hear true vocal talent. I have seen Rockapella live several times, and this CD captures a taste of that amazing experience - their onstage banter, their repoire with the audience, and so much more. It is a perfect blend of brilliant originals (People Change, Keep On Smilin') and covers of songs we all know and love (Pretty Woman, Stand By Me), with that unique Rockapella twist - and of course, their signature song, Where In the World Is Carmen Sandiego? Scott's soaring high tenor, Elliot's oh-so-smooth baritone, Barry's booming bass, Kevin's sweet, tender tenor, and Jeff's showstopping vocal percussion meld into the ultimate sound. Just five guys, singing their hearts out. True talent, true music.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Perfect Rockapella CD, March 10, 2001

I have seen Rockapella in concert many times, and nothing beats hearing these guys live! This cd captures that experience wonderfully. This is the perfect cd for both first time listeners and Rockapella veterans because the songs are a great mix of old favorites and never before recorded tunes such as Use Me and my personal favorite Keep on Smilin', 2 songs which you could only hear at one of their concerts. Be sure to listen for Jeff's vocal percussion solo in Where in the World is Carmen Sandiego...don't be fooled into thinking there's a drum set on stage, there's not, it's all Jeff! I was happy to hear Barry's intro to Long Cool Woman was on the album, too! These guys have a great banter with each other and the audience at their concerts, and it was nice to hear some of it included. If you get a chance to see them in concert, I strongly urge you to go, it's an experience you'll never forget!

5.0 out of 5 stars Live makes the difference, September 1, 2002

This review is from: In Concert (Audio CD)

I am a huge fan of a capella music and I am in a group myself. Out of all the Rockapella CD's, this is still my favorite by far. First of all, it is the best buy you will find if you are interested in Rockapella. There are 22 songs on this CD as opposed to a meager 12-14 on the others. But besides the economic aspect, I simply believe this CD has the best quality music that I've heard from their recorded music. Some of the same songs are on their other CD's but when I listen to the other CD's, I just don't get the same feeling. Maybe I just prefer hearing Rockapella "sing their guts out" as Barry Carl would put it... but I think their studio recordings are overblended and saccharine sweet. So if you want what I feel is the true sound of great modern a capella music, buy this CD first.
