Stealing.......2006-12-12

I love the Von Bondies and how they just rock your socks, but you can't steal David Bowie as Ziggy Stardust's stage artwork. That lightening bolt in the circle was either painted on Bowie's forehead or on display behind the stage. That's his lightening bolt, the same design. I know lightening bolts are common, but if you look at David Bowie's use of it, it is in the exact same shape as this cover. I guess I enjoy their homage to D Bo, I can only hope they mention that in the liner notes.

Better than all their studio work.......2006-01-30

This album does the band justice that i havent seen on any studio album by them. I have Pawn Shoppe Heart, and its pretty good, but after seeing them live, it just doesnt do them justice. This album shows all the energy they have on stage, and the female vocals sound incredibly better. The sound quality is great, and the track list as well. All in all, one of my favorite new "rock" live albums.

AMAZING.......2004-04-19

This album is amazing, from start to finish, each track completly blows your mind, your listening to it and you think it cant get better, then the next track comes on and your in AH of it. I defiantly recomnd this disc to anyone!

My Advice, BUY IT NOW!

Detroit Rawk at its best.......2003-07-21

Two years ago, I saw these guys almost steal the show from the headliners White Stripes. "Raw and Rare" is a perfect description for these guys and gals and this disc will help tide over fans for their next album. A collection of mostly live tracks from the "Lack of Communication" material. These tracks do sound thicker and livelier than the studio versions and a better indication of the band's explosive live perfomances. Also included here are a couple killer covers. "R & R Nurse" is great reworking of the Compulsive Gamblers tune and "Take a Heart" is 7 minutes of pure Rawk. The album concludes with two specially recorded tracks, but are pretty much throwaways.
