Canada's Answer to Chicago in New York City, December 14, 2005
This review is from: Lighthouse Live! [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
I get goosebumps when I think of this album. "Live" doesn't even do it justice. It was explosive. Feb 6, 1972 at Carnegie Hall. "One Fine Morning, Take it Slow" and "I Just Wanna be Your Friend" were the staples of this one fine album but I particularly like the band's versions of "Rockin' Chair, Insane and the "Byrd's" classic "Eight Miles High", the latter mainly because Lighthouse just doesn't play it anymore. The only complaint with the album is I had wished they had done another if only so that songs such as "Pretty Lady" and" Sunny Days" could have been included. I'm fortunate enough to be living in "Lighthouse country" so I get quite a few opportunities to see them even now. If we can get Amazon to put some sound clips with the album selections, then more of you can find and appreciate what most of us already know. Lighthouse rocked...and still does.

Best Live cd I have ever heard, April 15, 2003
This review is from: Lighthouse Live! [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
WOW! If you like rock/jazz with the power of a live gig, this is the cd for you. Lighthouse, for those of you who don't know was an powerhouse in the 70,s. Under the leadership of Skip Procop this group broke all bounderies, groups like Chicago, Blood Sweat and Tears, owe much to this group. Songs on this cd that stand out, 1849, Sweet Lulabye, and The Byrds-Eight Miles High. This is one of those must haves for your collection.

Lighthouse - Too Bad Too Bad, January 1, 2009
This review is from: Lighthouse Live! [IMPORT] (Audio CD)
I really like this album, it well represents this band whom I've seen live several times. Whatever happened to them, this reminds me of how much I enjoyed this band live. Whether they are on the same level as Chicago is not the question, this would have been a nice concert to be at. If the editorial comments are true and they ignored Woodstock, it just shows how others viewed this band. That is a really what if question had they been present at Woodstock. This is well worth it.
