I had to buy two of these CD's because I didn't like parting with mine long enough to let my hubby keep it in his truck! Now we both have it, and I just can't stop playing it.

We have been fans of LLB since we first heard them. (We have always been big fans of Stevie Ray Vaughan too, and these guys have the same kind of edge.) We saw LLB in concert on 6/29/05 when they opened up for Santana in St. Paul, MN, and we absolutely LOVED them! I found them to be even more entertaining than Santana (nothing against Santana at all, they were great too...I just loved the energy and sound of LLB).

I love all the songs on this CD, but for some reason song #6, More than Love, just keeps giving me the goosebumps. It's such a great song. My little girls (6 and 3) and my son (16) also enjoy listening to these guys jam!

I just bought this item two days and boy it is worth my money! It doesn't playback on my discman but it said that constantly that it's not going to work with all cd audio players. It almost blew my ears when I played the DVD side for the disc. I am always interested in acquiring new music. I visited the website and it gave no specific lists of CD & DVD players that would work with the CD audio side. I think that I will wait to buy another DualDisc until they give a list of players that can read the DualDisc CD side.

I loved the song Heaven and sampled a few of the others at Amazon. I was impressed enough to buy the CD. This CD is great. I like every song on it. I've brought to parties and have convinced my friends to get one themselves. The harmony and musicianship is fantastic. This a great addition to anyone's collection.

I actually downloaded all of their songs and loved them so much, I had to buy the album. I got so fed up with artists putting out albums with 1 or 2 good songs, I started downloading instead. Let me tell you this is not one of those crappy cd's.

I love every song on this CD. These guys are some of the best musicians I have heard in a long time. The bonus songs and videos are nice also.

Contrary to what others said, I just ripped the whold CD with Windows Media Player without a hitch. I think the earlier versions might have had that nasty anti-copy DRM that Sony got sued over and removed. My copied songs play flawlessly on all of my mp3 players. I will also try to copy the music from the videos since there are some great acustic songs not available on other cd's.

Get it, you won't be disappointed!!

The DVD side is Dolby 5.1 which is a highly compressed sound format to be used as a sound track for DVD video to fit it all on the disk. Put it in the computer and check the size of the files compared with the cd. How could it sound better? So much of the musical information is missing. If you are mainly using the DVD disk volume for audio then you can use DVD audio which uses more volume than any cd can take. Using volume as a guide Dolby 5.1 is inferior to DTS which is inferior to cd which is inferior to 96/24 PCM which is inferior to sacd which is inferior to DVD audio. So why is Sony pressing these inferior formats .... because they now realise it is a good idea to have video and surround mixes in their music disks. But they do not support DVD audio as it is in competition to their SACD format and so you are given an inferior sound format instead.

They're pretty good for a new band, I have a copy of this cd, plus their dvd I just don't find it as good as the other reviewer has stated. I have heard people compare Henry to S.R.V. lets get real he's pretty good, but not near Stevie Ray Vaughan's quality, I think they will get better in time. Though this is an o.k. first effort, this band in my opinion is way over rated.

I am one of the few people that buys all of his music (instead of illegal downloading) because I want to support the artists that I like. When I buy a CD I always make a copy so I can burn a back-up, play it in my portable player, make my own mixed cd,etc. These new "Dual Discs CANNOT be copied/ripped on a computer!!!!! I have tried 4 different programs and it wont work. In my opinion it ruins the way that I want to use the music I purchased. I will NEVER again buy a dual disc. What sense does it make if you cant listen to the music the way that you want to enjoy it.

Buy the NON-Dual disk version, it's one of the best of 2004 but don't waste your money on this rip off from the music industry!!

BE WARNED. BOYCOTT THE DUAL DISC!

I ordered one, that would not play - Amazon was great to replace it, but the replacement one wouldn't play either!! I am pretty sure that it would have gotten several stars had I got to listen to it!!
