Customer Reviews:

4 out of 5 stars Like being there live!.......2001-07-17

This is a wonderful compilation of live songs performed by Dan Fogelberg with various band members during the 90's. I had to the good fortune to see three of his shows during that time and always made a list of the songs played each night. Afterwards I would create a cassette of the songs available to re-live the concert. This record includes some previously unreleased material and it puts me right back into one of those seats again.

Dan's incredible versatility and power as a peformer is showcased here. In addition, his breadth as a musician is demonstrated again & again. Songs like "The Innocent Age" and "Make Love Stay" are unmatched in lyric and melodic composition. And then the power and raw emotion of "Don't Let That Sun Go Down" is indicative of a side of Dan's music of which the Top 40 listener is unaware. And then his tip of the hat to the Beatles in "Here Comes The Sun" reminds us of why we all were influenced by their sound.

For anyone who wants to experience Dan Fogelberg in Concert and glimpse the variety of his talent and his ability to reach out and hold an audience, then this album will put you right there! A definite 'Recommended Buy'

3 out of 5 stars nice for fans.......2000-10-24

Not a bad cd. Though I heard this was recorded in the early to mid 90's, I do not recall hearing many of these songs performed live. Dan's setlist does not change much period, so many of these must have been one offs. The inclusion of 'Changing horses' makes it worth the price alone.'Looking for a lady' and 'as the raven flies' only sweeten the offer. A few other surprises are when Timothy B. Schmidt joins the fun for old Poco nugget 'You better think twice.' And a "where did that come from" reading of 'Statesboro blues.' Mr. Harrisons 'Here comes the sun' ends the acoustic set nicely. I probably would have rated this higher if it weren't for the inclusion of a few tunes that need not be here.

I am assuming Dan knew this would be largely a "fans only" disc thus I do not see a valid reason for the inclusion of 'Make love stay' and 'Hard to say' which make their umpteenth appearance here. They could have, should have, been left off.

I would reccomend any of Dan's 70's catalog first. But if you are already a fan then this should do nothing to change that. One other thing is that this album is on a tiny record label (Chicago records) so it may be wise to pick this one up before it dissapears!!

5 out of 5 stars Great Live CD.......2000-07-18

Thanks Dan for all the great music over the years...this CD beats "Greetings From The West" for dollar-for-dollar-pound-for-pound showcasing Dan's music and especially wide-ranging talent. If you only think of Fogelberg as a "soft folk-rock balladeer" this CD will certainly change your mind.

5 out of 5 stars A real pleasure.......2000-06-27

This is the Dan Fogelberg CD you can put on when your friends are around! You needn't be embarrassed.

This album shows how Dan's career really does add up to something. Those old songs sound better than ever with a bit of grit in the throat, and the new song and blues covers are a treat. Playing with a live band seems to work magic too; Dan sounds to be having FUN, and that makes all the difference. So what if the recordings were made years ago?

This is well worth getting.

5 out of 5 stars A Truely Intense Experience.......2000-06-21

What a shame that this truely brilliant live album has only been released on a small label and will probably not receive the attention it deserves.

Dan Fogelberg - a brilliant singer,songwriter and instrumentalist who has survived in this business for almost 30 years now - released his first live album in 1991 (Greetings From the West), also highly recommended. But this new album, which is a collection of material recorded live between 1992 and 1995, sounds much closer to real thing.

No overdubs, the occasional glitch - it's really like being there in the concert hall. Unlike other reviewers I do think that Dan's voice has matured nicely over the years, and the live versions of his early classics sound even better on this disc.

Timothy B. Schmit, veteran member of Poco and The Eagles, provides some very nice harmony vocals on this record. There are a lot of as yet unreleased songs here, including some very intense and highly emotional Blues tracks as well - which all helps to prove just what a brilliant singer and musician Dan Fogelberg is.
