There's a lot of good songs on this big double album. Hoyt and Jana Lee Dare do a great job on Will the Circle Be Unbroken.

All the hits and greats are here, plus a few "Americana" type tunes. Rarely does a "live" album do justice to the material, but in these intimate settings, Hoyt's true personality and down home talent show through, unlike the studio sound you get from the originals. Buy it, you won't regret it.

5.0 out of 5 stars The Best, May 29, 2008

I attended a concert in '80 or'81 in Bennett, Idaho, the same time frame as this recording. The same set material as best as I can remember. It was by far the best concert I have ever attended, but then again, I have only been to a very few. I have been to a Waylon concert in '85, around that same time I was at Tom T Hall concert, a Kentucky Headhunters, and John Anderson concert. Hoyt blew them all out of the water, he was just so personable and seemed to be having as much fun as we all were. I will never forget the people that were there: hippies, bikers, cowboys, farmboys, guys in suits. Hoyt music crosses all barriers.

I can picture it now, Hoyt's up in heaven, sitting next to God, Jesus is standing a little off to the side, rolliing his eyes. And Hoyt goes into one of his little nonsence stories. And God, sipping iced tea, snorts it out his nose at the little story He's hearing.

You go Hoyt. Buy this CD.
