Free Music Review: This is what music was meant to sound like
Hit: 5 Stars
I had already owned this album, have heard (but not owned) most of what is on the studio album. I was psyched when I got tickets to see them here in Chi-town just a few nights ago. I have been a concert goer for over 15 years, having seen some really great artists in my time, including Peter Gabriel, Prince and Sting. This show tops them all. It was by far the best live performance I have ever seen. The musicianship was top notch, the energy was unbelieveable and they literally tore the roof off and then some. When they come to your town, run, do not walk, to get tickets. You will not be sorry. Robert Randolph is going to have a long long career. Even though he is the new kid on the block and still largely an unknown artist to many, he has already opened for Eric Clapton and was scheduled to open for Lenny Kravitz (before the tour was cancelled due to a death in Kravitz' family). When a legend like Eric Clapton sings your praises, you know you are doing something right.
As far as the album, this live album does not capture the ferver of an actual RRFB live performance. On CD, the tracks just simply seem to go on too long. But when you hear these extended jams in person, you wish they would never end. From what I have heard of the studio album, this also seems to be the case. The CD tracks need to be condensed to keep the albums momentum.
Robert likes to steal little sound bits of other popular songs from other artists and encorperate them into his sets. When "Shake Your Hips" starts you recognize the obvious hook from ZZ Top's La Grange. During his live show I was at, he opened his show with Michael Jackson's "Don't Stop Til You Get Enough". Further on in the concert, he threw in some Eurythmics and even some Stevie Wonder. His rendition of the classic "People Get Ready" was absolutely moving. I can not wait until that show gets rebroadcast on the sponsering radio station here.
His two albums he has released leave the listener begging for more. In a years time, he will be so huge you will have to fight to get tickets to his show. Do not miss the opportunity. You do not hear talent like this every day. It is craaaazzzzy how talented this group of musicians are.
