A decent (not great) but okay budget priced CD to give true fans a taste of the 'live' Molly Hatchet experience. Sound quality is very good. Tunes that you're sure to get plenty of enjoyment out of when driving to work, across town, etc are "Flirting With Disaster", "Long Tall Sally", "Satisfied Man" and "Good Smoke And Whiskey". Obviously, this disc features some of Hatchet's lesser known tracks. Sure miss original vocalist Danny Joe Brown (R.I.P.).

This is just another one of those cheap and nasty CD releases from Sony to make a quick buck. The cover makes it look like a live CD. But, it is just a "greatest hits" CD.

The CD is 42 minutes long and sound quality is surprisingly good, but not excellent. The packaging is cheap, with no liner notes.

The CD covers about 10 years of Molly Hatchet. The first five tracks are from the early early years and fairly good. I have always enjoyed their version of Gregg Allman's Dreams (even though it isn't as good as some of the Allman Brothers versions). The Creeper has always been a favorite.

The last 5 songs are from later in the group's life and are just tired and stale. Sweet Dixie sound just like a retread of Flirtin' With Disaster.

In later years, Molly Hatchet would sometimes veer away from the Southern Rock sound to a more conventional corporate rock sound that was popular at the time. The results were not very successful.

This album is pretty good, but i've heard better. one good song on this is dreams i'll never see. listen to that song and try some others. give molly hatchet a chance, and check out one of their older albums. if you watch wwf, listen, one of stone cold's favorite songs is dreams i'll never see.
