3.0 out of 5 stars Good But Far From His Best
Usher has taken the world by storm with all of this albums.
Personally i think MY WAY was this best album yet.
8701 was jammmin' too.
Live is a good album 4 usher fans but the cd does get boring..
If u want a really good Usher album buy My Way or 8701.
This album could've been better, however i'm not sorry i got it because some songs do sound nice...

2.0 out of 5 stars Bad Interpretation, March 25, 1999
By 
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
Usher's live album is TOO live. This album has almost nothing new to offer, considering the quality tracks are only 30 seconds long. That includes "Tender Love," "Every Little Step," and other potentially great songs. This album was recorded in Chattanooga, Tennessee. It seems as if Usher stalls album time by yelling "Ladies!" over and over, to fill in time. The overall instrument arrangements and production is incredible, and the vocal talent flows out of Usher more than ever, but the songs are simply too short. The upbeat songs on this album are all flattened by under par rap performances by Usher himself, that were originally recorded by Jermaine Dupri and other rap stars.

5.0 out of 5 stars THE HOMETOWN BOY IS DA BOMB, July 23, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
Usher is not only one of the best young artist to ever come around but he is also put in categories with the best of them.Anyone who thinks this album is not da bomb something is seriously wrong with them.They need to listen to the cd again and start over.I guess it's because i'm from Tn also and just have this thing for artist from my home state.Usher babe keep up the good work and don't listen to the negativity.

5.0 out of 5 stars Best R&b singer, June 18, 2000
By 
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
I met Usher with his 2nd album My Way in 1997 and from that time to today he is still my best singer and his song Nice&Slow is my best song ever.I got this album this year to hear his performance in a live concert and i'm pleased with this one too and he showed everyone that he is not only a studio singer he can do the same job in live action. He dances so well and sings incredible but he better be quick to release new albums because its been like 3 years. All i wanna say is Everybody has to have this album in their collection believe me you can't stop listening it.

1.0 out of 5 stars too soon for a live album and a okay vocalist, January 27, 2000
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
you used to have at least release a few records or have been around for a while to put out a live album.the problem with this disc is that Usher is mainly a studio artist.Live he is flat&boring.the songs aren't as good or interesting.overall he comes off like a 2nd tier Bobby Brown clone.and these days that ain't good.

4.0 out of 5 stars Decent Live Album, December 14, 2006
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
Let's face it, Usher Live was only released to milk all the soon to be superstar but it's still a decent Live album. All of Usher's singles up to this point expect for Can U Get With It were featured in LIVE renditions.Usher really shows promise and apperication of old school music with his all too brief but excllent covers. The covers start out with the intro from Bobby Brown's Don't Be Cruel and then blends into Every Little Step. Usher then goes into ballad mode covering Rock Witcha, Roni, I Need Love and Tender Love which leads into his own slow jams Bedtime and the classic Nice & Slow. I really would like to hear Usher do an album of covers, I'd think he'd kill Marvin Gaye's Sexual Healing and Prince's Adore. All in all a decent Live album.

1.0 out of 5 stars Usher does too many remakes and versions of each song, July 31, 2005
This review is from: Live (Audio CD)
Usher is a great talent but at least a third of these songs are remakes. Bobby Brown did Roni (written by Baby Face in 1988; this is a lackadasical version). Tender Love, Every Little Step, Don't be cruel, etc... are all remakes. If you search some of these songs on the internet, Usher even gets credit for them. It's almost like he did this CD to make money only. He seems to be going through the motions on this CD and doesn't have that great energy he usually shows. It's almost as disappointing as having 3-4 versions of one song (Part 1, Part 2, etc...) and calling each part a song (he does this now). I've seen him live and this CD sucks compared to what he can do. Very disappointing. It was released in 1999 when people forget he wasn't exactly burning up the charts all of the time; which may attribute to the remakes and his lack of energy. He seems to give just enough to get by.
