2.0 out of 5 stars pure prairie league concert classics vol. 1, January 10, 2001
out of all the music i have (300 cd's) pure prarie league is one of my favorites. but out of all their albums there is no doubt that "live takin'the stage" is their best work. it is the only live album that i'll listen to. put concert classics vol. 1 back on the shelf and pull "live takin'the stage" back off the shelf and reissue that one,please!

1.0 out of 5 stars I agree with the music fan from New York, November 19, 2000
By A Customer
This CD was a very bad offering. It was nothing like the live album Takin' the Stage. The only decent song was Two Lane Highway.

1.0 out of 5 stars A very poor offering from a 5 star band, June 16, 1999
By A Customer
Since RCA decided to discontinue PPL's live album on CD - Takin' the Stage - this was a promising disk. If you read the reviews of the studio disks, fans agree that PPL is a 5 star band. This disk has their best line-up and a great songlist spanning their career. But man, something bad happened in the production studio. Very uneven sound mixing has Vince Gill sounding like he is singing some of the songs in a box. On the encore song, the horns sound downright obnoxous and it seems like the sound mixers took turns deciding who's instrument should be obliterated on each song. Too bad, really.

This album didn't get close to the real League,If you want a live album Live Takin The Stage is it. I would run not walk to buy it if they would re-issue it.
