4.0 out of 5 stars Sunny Day Revisited, December 14, 2007

By

First, I think this is a great album. I love the live quality of this recording because it makes me feel like I was there somewhere in the back of the room. It has this bass-heavy growling that you get in an old theater (and surprise it was recorded in an old theater).

I love the way the guitars sound; gritty and real like they come from an amplifier similar to one I own.

I'm more of an early SDRE fan, but I feel that this record helped me get into post-Pink record songs a little more. For example, Guitars & Video Games was not a song I really appreciated until I heard this.

Also if you're a little burned out on In Circles, the version on this Live album rocks.

Finally, if you were a big Sunny Day Real Estate fan and haven't listened to them in a while, this record will help you rediscover them.

4.0 out of 5 stars 4.5 stars. A great live experience., February 4, 2002

This is a much better cd than many people realize. I'm not sure what problems some people have with it-I realize the mix is good in some areas and a bit 'off' in others-but it still sounds great and I think many of these songs find their definitive versions on this disc. This is the first cd by SDRE I heard and I've since purchased all their other albums. The "Pink" lp is my favorite but this cd and "Diary" are close behind. Should not be missed. Worth the price of admission just for "Song About an Angel" and "Guitars & Video Games", both of which are better than the album versions.

Recommended.

5.0 out of 5 stars AMAZING CD IF YOU'RE A DIEHARD SDRE FAN!, October 17, 2001

By A Customer

This review is from: Live (Audio CD)

I had first heard that they even had a LIVE SDRE cd on a college radio station. I had called to request "IN CIRCLES" & they only had the live version. Immediately after hearing it on the radio; I went to Amazon.com to find it & purchased it.
That song live is definitely amazing. Jeremy Enigks voice is soo passionate.
All the other songs on the cd are from various cd's (past & present)Live versions are sometimes worse than cd recordings. BUt, this live version rocks!
