Brand X , The X Files... One Guy`s Opinion, December 27, 1999
This review is from: X-Files (Audio CD)
This is the first I have heard from Brand X since the early 80`s. Disc 1 contains mostly live cuts from various times and places, going from recently to the past. The playing is great and so are the tunes, but the sound is sometimes rather raw. Disc 2 contains cuts from various projects Goodsall and Jones have been involved in outside of Brand X. Some of it is good,while some of it will never vibrate my speakers again.Drum fans will enjoy the variety of excellent drummers. If you want to get into Brand X, this is not the best place to start( go back to the late 70`s stuff). This one has some excellent moments but would have probably been better as one disc, rather than two.

"Uh oh he's been using Brand X", November 18, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: X-Files (Audio CD)
An embarassment. Steer clear of this one folks. Just when you thought these guys were the last real "fusion" types about...Since when did the last great secret of the fusion world start taking pointers from Joe Satriani and listening to old Al DiMeola pratice sessions? Where the hell is Phil when you need him, oh yes, Tarzan. The star is for the Bruford and Wilding/Bonus tracks, and well does one really want those?
