4.0 out of 5 stars Excellent example of live Peter Hamill circa 1990, January 4, 1999

By A Customer

This review is from: Room Temperature Live (Audio CD)

The 2CD set contains material from Peter's previous albums (i.e. The Wave, If I Could, Skin,Modern, The Future Now) recorded during a tour of North America in 1990.The line-up includes violin and bass. Peter is in excellent form, giving the songs considerate range of exression and interpretation while displaying his unique form of thought about the human condition.The recording production is very high-quality, with the song order and pacing consistent with a concert experience.I enjoy this set very much;it is a favorite of mine, and I look forward to more from Peter.

5.0 out of 5 stars An album of emotions..., May 26, 2002

It's not easy to find an album which can awake in me all these differents kind of emotions, not easy neither find a double album which I like all the songs, the strong of a theather show, the feeling of a pure heart, the simplicity of the perfection, that's how I feel this album, but it's not easy to understand the music of Peter Hammill, so don't try if you are not a very open minded person about music.

5.0 out of 5 stars welcome to my nightmare, my dear old yellow fever, July 9, 2001

Evidemment, ceci est un summum de déchirure. Peter Hammill tout seul ou presque crie, s'éraille la gorge qu'il a déployée et vous glace les sangs tant sa souffrance vous caresse la peau... Pour l'avoir vu interpréter ces mêmes titres au Grand Mix de Tourcoing voici 2 ans déjà, je peux vous assurer que vous trouverez ici un fidèle témoignage d'un artiste qui a la chance de pouvoir dire les maux qui nous traversent à chaque instant de nos doutes et envies relâchées parce que nous ne pouvons pas affronter ce monde en déliquescence et qui nous tue à petit feu tant que nous ne sortirons pas au grand jour des projecteurs afin qu'ils nous abattent. Il n'y a -décidément- plus rien !
