Editorial Reviews

Review

“Arlo's between song narratives are hilarious, serpentine journeys that expose political absurdities with acute comic timing ..." --City Pages, Minnesota June 2005


Product Description

NATIONAL RELEASE: August 9, 2005 A new LIVE IN CONCERT double CD from ARLO!! Live in Sydney captures Arlo at his very best. Recorded in Sydney, Australia, June 2004 at The Seymour Center, Arlo is joined by son, Abe, on keyboard and multi-instrumentalist, Gordon Titcomb. This double CD intertwines the music and stories that have endeared Arlo to his audiences for more than 40 years. New originals are the crowd pleasing, heart touching song, “My Old Friend” and the haunting, melodic tribute to Hawaii, “Haleiwa Farewell (Haleiwa Blues)”. “Some people think a folksinger is someone who just sings their own songs. That's a shame. It's like being of the tradition, rather than in it. I've taught myself to make any song I like, my own." - Arlo Guthrie Arlo’s versions of his long-time favorites, “St. James Infirmary,” “Me and Bobby McGee,” and “Green Green Rocky Road” will stick in your head long after the music has stopped. Stories include old favorites and new ones too. This is Arlo's first solo release in almost 10 years. Well worth the wait!!!

5.0 out of 5 stars If you haven't seen him live ..., January 15, 2006
... (and even if you have) get this collection. Arlo is just great live, both musically and in between songs and this Australian recording keeps all the between song patter in there. That's a good thing because it gives a sense of what a real Arlo show is with his rambling and funny and insightful observations. It is like listening to an old friend. Not that the between song commentary dominates the album, because the music really does. Abe Guthrie & Gordon Ticomb do a admirable job backing him up, but listen closely for Arlo on guitar and piano. He really is a very fine instrumentalist, something that not everyone may have noticed over the years. Great covers of some of his older songs as well as some of the old standards of the folk scare.

This is a very enjoyable collection and is one of my favorite live recordings of anyone. It would be nice, though, if he'd follow this up with an album of new material to mine. We can always use more Arlo.

5.0 out of 5 stars Arlo is great., October 10, 2005
By James E. Duckworth "oahu-street" (Clinton, MD United States) - See all my reviews
(REAL NAME)   
I think Arlo is a great person. I also think he'd never boast about it or even realizes his greatness. His songs are insightful and some of them are down right silly. I myself have been listening to Arlo for 30 years. I have been to two live shows and one of them was with Pete Seeger. Right now at this moment I could put on any one of his albums and when it's over I will have felt many emotions. I will also feel like I have learned something new about humanity.

4.0 out of 5 stars Live is always great., January 11, 2007
Arlo is at his best in the double disk CD. There is a good mix his father's songs, his own songs and classics. He has a couple of his kids playing with him and there is joy, almost a celebration in the performances. If you like Arlo, you will like, even love this CD
