I have been a long time fan of Joe Jackson. This is a really good live collection of his work. There were some songs that I have never heard (Friday, Tuxedo Junction, and others) before but they are all good. The only song that I was disappointed in was “Another World.” I have heard several versions of this (the best one is on Two Rainy Nights)and this one was off. Other than that one song (32 in all)this is an outstanding collection. I have never seen him in concert but it sounds like he is having fun and puts on a great show!

Incredible sound for being recorded back in ’79 and early 80′s…. Excellent “new” song arrangements! A must for the dedicated fan…. Like me!

I’ve seen JJ in concert probably 10 times over the years in many incarnations and have all of the live albums. It’s nice to hear the original band back in the day when they were just getting started and really sounded raw. There’s nothing really new here, but it’s a fun album to add to your collection. I recommend it!!

If you like early Joe Jackson, you’ll be in love with this CD, of course. What more needs to be said? He and his band are at their energetic best and the songs fly by like home run hits at a baseball park. Go beat crazy!
