5.0 out of 5 stars Live, and never better!!, January 31, 1999

By A Customer

Peter Paul & Mary deliver the best live album they've ever done. This was recorded back in 1981, and I bought the album at a PP&M concert around that time (give or take a year). I spent years hoping it would come out on CD, and here it is at last!!

For Stan Rogers fans, the rendition of "Delivery Delayed" was every bit as powerful as Stan's own. "There But For Fortune", a Phil Ochs classic, evoked overtones of Harry Chapin's Phil Ochs story, "The Parade's Still Passing By". And that's just two of my favorites.

The vocal harmony on the album is crisp, and bassist Dick Kniss stands out more with songs not usually heard on PP&M albums. As soon as I saw this on CD, I bought it. You should too. There isn't a clunker in the bunch. It's a good change of pace from the "concert standards" we know and love, and an opportunity to hear them at their best.

4.0 out of 5 stars great collection of songs, October 25, 1999

By A Customer

This recording includes some songs that I really like. For example, "Power" really helps me understand the controversy over nuclear energy. "Music Speaks Louder than Words" is a very positive song that I like to listen to even when under stress. There is only one improvement I can think of: There is no commentary about the different songs. I think they could have included a few presentations about the songs to help listeners learn more about what they are hearing. There might have been commentary on the original LP, but it might have been edited out. Over all, I still think this is a really good recording and I would recommend it to anyone who likes folk music.

5.0 out of 5 stars One of their best albums, November 11, 1998

By A Customer

This is the first time this album has been on CD. Previously, it was out of issue. If you have the vinyl recording, you know how good this album is. If you are about to hear this for the first time, you'll be thrilled! Buy it! It's wonderful!
