This review is from: Live... In The Raw [Explicit] (MP3 Download)

Amazon, just cause you got the rights to the mp3 files in 2003 doesn't qualify you to put that as "original release date". This is 1987 album, fer cryin outloud. Please start putting correct release dates on albums!!

Sound quality is great for every song but, "Widowmaker" sounds like microphones and additional dubbing took the night off.

4.0 out of 5 stars great live rock CD, April 14, 2006

By	JWolfe (Denver, CO) - See all my reviews

I love listening to this CD - the sound quality is great for all the live tracks except for the bonus tracks. On Widowmaker and Sex Drive, it sounds like someone sneaked in a tape recorder to the concert....the sound quality is *horrible* and the band can't stay in tune with each other. That's the only reason I'm giving the review four stars.

I can't say there is a bad song from Tracks 1-10...I love them all. The band plays really tight and they sound great! The sound quality is some of the finest I've ever heard. Hard to believe they sound so good while being so messed up, but they do play well on these tracks. My favorites are "Blind in Texas" and "9.5.-N.A.S.T.Y". Lawless' voice is great. My only nit-picky complaint is that you have this awesome, hard-rockin', ear-splitting power behind the guitars and bass, and then you have a wimpy snare drum that doesn't fit....sounds like someone tapping on a tin can.

I highly recommend this CD, at least for the first ten tracks. Rock -n- roll at its finest...
