A Live Classic Rock Gem!, May 31, 2007
This review is from: Live at XM Satellite Radio (Audio CD)
With his "Live At Sunrise" cd out of print, rock legend Dave Mason's latest release "Live At XM Satellite Radio", is more than an adequate replacement. His guitar playing and singing have never been better, and his band is well rehearsed playing a flawless set of classic rock tunes, that proves to be captivating. There is no filler at this show, as every single song rocks the house with vintage Dave Mason early seventies rock n roll. You don't want to miss "Only You Know And I Know". "We Just Disagree", "Look At You, Look At Me", "Dear MR Fantasy", "All Along The Watch Tower", and of course the song that has withstood the test of time like no other "Feeling Alright", which features a blistering guitar duel between Dave and band member John Sambataro. Also included, are some nice bonus tracks of Dave singing the Eagles "Take It To The Limit"[which first appeared live on his 1976 LP ""Certified Live". A duet with the late Jim Capaldi "40,000 Headmen", and a brand new studio track "Deaf Dumb and Blind". Rumor has it that Dave will be releasing a new studio cd in the near future titled "Alone Together Again". If this release is any indication, it proves that Dave Mason is still a talented singer and guitarist who is as good as any of the other so called classic rock guitar legends. After hearing this release, I certainly am looking forward to hearing his long anticipated new studio release in the future.

DAVE MASON LIVE/STUDIO-ONE FROM THE VAULT, June 10, 2007
This review is from: Live at XM Satellite Radio (Audio CD)
Dave Mason fans will enjoy this release of some of Mr. Mason's finest performed to a "live" studio audience a few years ago. Complete with classics from the Traffic staples Dear Mr. Fantasy, Feelin' Alright and 40,000 Headmen, as well as such solo favorites World in Changes, Only You Know And I Know and Look At You, Look At Me from "Alone Together" and the hit song We Just Disagree, plus Dave's rousing rendition of All Along The Watchtower, this is a nice addition to any Dave Mason fans' collections. Interviews with Dave in addition to three rare bonus tracks, including a live version of the Eagles' Take It To The Limit, round out the CD. The band is tight, the solos crisp and Mason's vocals are still more than adequate. Much better than any recycled "greastest hits" offerings we see so much nowadays from fading rockers.

Classic Rock's most underrated ......................, June 8, 2007
This review is from: Live at XM Satellite Radio (Audio CD)
This cd, was recorded at XM radio's studio in 2004. It also has 3 bonus tracks, including the new "deaf, dumb and blind" The new song is reason enough to buy the cd. It's also climbing up the AC Charts.
In addition to the bonus tracks, we're served up some of the best material from Dave's history. The recording is sharp, the band is tight, Dave's vocals are better than ever, his guitar playing (on his RKS guitars)is amazing, and finally the songs are classics. Run, don't walk to add this to your collection. It will remain in your cd player for a long time.
