Free Music Notes for Live in TokyoFree Music Review: Stevie as compared to Stevie... Hit: 5 Stars
One of the main errors(pardon me) for reviewing a new release is to compare it to previous releases or to the artist himself. If some of the new releases were listened to in a vacuum, they would be appreciated for what they are. This is a stellar performance on it's own merits. Only Buddy Guy(when he deems it neccessary) can top this guitar legend. Buddy, can you hear me talkin' to ya! Give us some Sweet Tea live!
Free Music Review: Any SRV album... Hit: 5 Stars
Any SRV concert is worth getting. If this is the same show as the video, it is great.
Btw, whoever wrote the Editorial Review for this is incorrect. Stevie
was still having problems with addictions in 1985 but you couldn't tell
it by listening to his music. He was an outstanding guitarist.

Free Music Review: Production Bogs Down the Master Hit: 3 Stars
If you're a die-hard SRV fan of course you have to have this and all existing SRV music, because let's face it, the hunger for more SRV recordings never goes away, but personally I don't find this to be one of his best. To me, the production is very bass-bottom-heavy. The guitar has too much whammy in it. And that Hammond organ in the foreground drives me crazy. These elements combine to make the sound of the tracks too much the same, despite his stellar performance. But live performances are like fine wines, each has its own character and some you like more, some less.
Free Music Review: disappointing Hit: 3 Stars
Not as I expected however the intro to "Lenny" was fascinating as it contains mostly the intro to "Riviera Paradise", which was not studio recorded for some time after this performance. Overall, it was just another bootleg cleaned up and while the SRV-nut will want this for their collection, it is not one of his best releases.
