3.0 out of 5 stars Racer X - 'Live Extremes,Volume 2' (Shrapnel), December 1, 2004
Before this,I didn't know that much about the band except they were much of a club favorite in the Los Angeles area from 1986-88.The group apparently featured guitarist Paul Gilbert before he had joined Mr.Big.They released three worthy lp's in the timespan I just mentioned.After that,several compilation and live discs happened to surface,like this one.Personally,I know people that really might enjoy 'Live...' more than I did.It's a decent live recording,but then I ALWAYS enjoy a live CD.A couple of the tunes that I thought carried their own are "On The Loose","Heart Of A Lion","Give It To Me" and their Kiss cover of "Detroit Rock City".Simply an under appreciated hard rock band that never got a big break.Might appeal to fans of Joe Satriani,Alcatrazz and possibly Yngwie.Come on,take a chance.

4.0 out of 5 stars Full shred ahead, January 25, 2009
By Chris Kaiser (Billings, MT United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
The studio albums by Racer X are amazing but these guys prove that they can shred just as good when playing live. Paul Gilbert gets a bad rap from his days in Mr. Big but he tears it up with the best of them.

4.0 out of 5 stars Warning: Extreme Volume!, October 27, 2008
I've been a big fan of Racer X since the 80's, love the band. Both albums are a must have for the Racer X fan. If you're a guitarist and have never heard Racer X, you have to check them out. Paul Gilbert and Bruce Bouliet are awesome guitarists. How do you describe Racer X? The best way is guitar rock, solos are technical and fast. I wouldn't consider them "heavy" just rock. Racer X live is as good as in the studio.
