America Live
Album Details
The Final Album of their Warner Bros. Records Contract also Became their Final Album as a Trio, Since Dan Peek Left Shortly after to Pursue a Career in Christian Music. The Set of Songs Here Draws from their Most Popular Hit Singles as Well as Album Tracks. Live Albums were the Order of the Day in the Wake of "Frampton Comes Alive", but These Tracks' Best Renditions Had Already Been Recorded. This Album was a Keepsake for their Many Fans.
Customer Reviews
3 of 5 stars  Ok, but should have been better
Friday, August 29, 2003
This album is ok, but not great. I agree with an earlier reviewer who said this album was over-produced. They should have gone for a harder rock sound for a live album, instead of going for a lavish, "Vegas" style performance. As a consequence, this album was their first out-right commercial flop when it was released in late 1978. Try one of their other live albums if you want to hear what they really sound like live. Btw, despite what the review above says, this was their first album as a duo. Dan Peek left BEFORE this album was done and is not featured on the album.

5 of 5 stars  CLASSICS - LIVE!
Wednesday, May 22, 2002
Great songs with very different, but incredible, arrangements.
Having seen other concerts at The Greek, I can only imagine the incredible how the orchestra looked behind the band.

Sound quality is good, but shows some drawbacks of early technology. Enjoy it!

3 of 5 stars  Would have been a great studio album.
Wednesday, December 30, 1998
Not bad, but I thought it was over produced. Goerge Martin tried to make it sound like a studio album, using an orchestra to back the band. This causes America to lose some energy and makes them sound more like a night club act than a classic rock band. Though it does provide some insight into how George Martin would have handled America's early hits had he produced them. His arangement of Horse With No Name is very interesting.
