Free Music Notes for Live from Bonnaroo 2005
Free Music Review: a little let down
Hit: 3 Stars
I thought this album was just so so. Ray is an excellent song writer, performer, musician. I think the albums production is pretty bad. It sounds really compressed. Live is hard to do but c'mon. Such a fantastic artist.. They really should have focused on the sound quality. Free Music Review: Brilliant
Hit: 5 Stars
This is the kind of music that gets into your head. Raw, emotional, and so very relevant. I haven't been able to get "Jolene" off my mind for days.Free Music Review: I expected SO much more.
Hit: 3 Stars
After discovering Ray quite late, just a couple months ago, I was blown away by his songwriting and, probably moreso, how absolutely genuine the guy is. After seeing a couple live performances via YouTube, I was expecting a lot more from this Bonnaroo performance. I played the CD a single time and can't bring myself to listen again- it was that bad, IMO. Maybe he was ill or the room just wasn't any good, but it sounds like the guy couldn't even hear himself sing. Free Music Review: Front and Center
Hit: 5 Stars
I was there ... and realized during the imrov jam of "Forever My Friend" that I had tears rolling down my face. The music, the vibe, the interaction between Ray, CT and Larry was THAT good.
The sound on this disc is great - really captures the moment and includes a bit of Ray's chat with the audience. A video of this show would be to die for!
I was a bit bummed that "How Come" wasn't included, though, because this slower, more raw version (also with a kickbutt improv ending) was much more powerful than the commerical-ish version available on the "Trouble" cd.
He really left it all on the stage that evening.
Free Music Review: Great reproduction of Ray's 2005 Bonnaroo show!
Hit: 4 Stars
I was there, and this is a decent soundboard recording of the live show, though not the whole set. At least as I remember it. Good sonics, good selection of six tunes, one unreleased, and an appealing amount of crowd noise. If you enjoy Ray's studio albums, you should pick up this cheaply priced but rich concert experience that showcases his talent as a live performer.
