1.0 out of 5 stars That doesn' t get you high, January 31, 2000

Nothing against the compositions. I also know, that they can' t sing and play the songs live as good as in the studio. The only thing is, that the sound quality is like the one of a bootleg, not very clear with all the echoes, the part between Dr. Stein and before the war is double as well on the end of disc 1 as on the beginning on disc 2, and the "artwork" is no comparison to the one of Live In The U. K. or the one of any other Helloween album (even Pink Bubbles Go Ape or Chameleon), it makes the album look like a CDR of a pupils' band. And awful versions of beautiful songs...

5.0 out of 5 stars Helloween large & in charge..., April 9, 2000

By 

Jorge Ruben (West Hempstead, NY United States) - See all my reviews

This review is from: High Live (Audio CD)

This album is a nice surprise from the boys in Helloween... the track listing is pretty good; the band tends to concentrate on material from "Master of the Rings" (Sole Survivor, Where the Rain Grows, Why?, Mr. Ego, Perfect Gentleman, In the Middle of a Heartbeat) and "Time of the Oath" (We Burn, Steel Tormentor, Power, Wake up the Mountain, Before the War, Time of the Oath)as well as 4 tracks from the Michael Kiske/Kai Hansen era (Eagle Fly Free, The Chance, Future World & Dr. Stein). On the whole the recording is good, although not quite near where "I Want Out/ Live in the U.K." was... it could have used a little bit more of the old Kiske/hansen material (on the previous tour, they had performed "Ride the Sky", "Mankind" & "Giants") but it is a satisfying disc nonetheless. Why? Because Helloween finally proves that they are beyond the "they couldn't do it without Michi" talk... Andi Deris, while not as sharp as in the studio (who really is, though, when they are touring?)provides tremendous lungpower, especially on old Kiske tracks like "Eagle Fly Free" and "Future World"... the crowd interaction with the band, while not on the level of "I Want Out", is still there and amusing at times... Roland & Weiki sound tight, Markus is strong & Uli proves that he takes a backseat to no one in the drumming department... a great cd to add to your collection...

5.0 out of 5 stars THE BEST LIVE ON 1996, May 11, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: High Live (Audio CD)

You can compare with all LIVE other bands do. There's nothing compare with it. If compared with Gamma Ray, its little bit higher, because Andi voices never changes the real sounds of vocals. But Kai hansen at Gamma Ray changes the vocals not like real sounds, because he never be the same like theold singer, Ralf Scheeper. Buy this one is the one thing to do as a metal fans.
