4.0 out of 5 stars Good show, but suffers from poor audio quality., July 22, 2001
A truly great show by the Kinks at the start of their career, and this release is the best you could own. The problem with it is not in the reissue. Castle has done it's best to make this listenable, and even includes both the mono and stereo versions of the album, which is great. The problem is that the original recording sounds almost like it's a bootleg recorded by someone in the audience. This is good in that it has a kind of raw feel to it that makes it seem like you're actually there, but for the most part, it's hard to listen to. The crowd is frequently louder than the band, and the overall sound is rather flat. I would reccommend this to any Kinks fan simply because it's all that is available of the Kinks performing live in this era of their career, but be warned - it's rough.

4.0 out of 5 stars The Genre Of Screaming Girls And London 1960s Prior To Their About Face., August 15, 2005
By Original Mixed Up-Kid "jg" (New York United States) - See all my reviews
This is a great collectors CD showcasing the great Kinks live at home in the outrageous 60's at thir heyday..Similiarly like the Stones,Got Live If You Want It CD,(in feel,not actual technical recording issues) these live documents are made for collectors and for ravers because the sound is usually average at best.When it comes to great sounding live cd's overdubs are a natural..
It is nice to hear both mono and stereo versions of the CD and to know this is live..the book and photos are nice..like the remaining Pye re releases on their early catalogue you won't be dissapointed as to the quality and sound.
The song selections are good and the era is the Face To Face period when the Kinks began experimenting with a bit of Indian Music,a touch less blues, more introspective sounds and lyrics, getting ready for their defining greatness to be found on such classic releases such as Something Else,We Are The Village Green, Arthur,Lola,Muswell Hillbillies etc. when the Kinks started to morph in earnest into the less angry more interior band they became.

4.0 out of 5 stars On With the Show, May 15, 2006
I have to disagree with anyone who feels that this recording is bootleg quality because this album sounds a hell of a lot better than recordings, official or otherwise that are sourced from an audience recording. The issue is that live recordings were in their infancy at the time so naturally you are not going to get the same quality as a modern live concert. That said it is a fascinating recording. The more rocking numbers such as "You Really Got Me" come off better than the more introspective songs. The Kinks did put on a good live show but live they were not all that different from in the studio (unlike say the Who, who would turn songs into extended jams live). Live at Kelvin Hall was recorded as the Kinks were ending their pre-punk phase and entering their most interesting period, 1966-70 where they rightfully deserved the title of the English equivalent of Bob Dylan, rather than the insufferable Donovan. Obviously, one of the drawbacks of the recording is the audience of screaming fans who just won't let up. The Kinks at this point obviously tired of concert goers who were idol worshippers instead of actual fans (but didn't have the clout of the Beatles or the Stones to stop touring)decide to have some fun on "Sunny Afternoon" and ask the audience to sing along (which they do). Two years later, the Kinks would regain the right to tour in the U.S. again (which they had lost due to conflicts on the 1965 tour) and by then they would be a more sophisticated and "well respected" band but that's another story...
