Customer Reviews
Faron Young as he sounded in his concerts
This is the only live album Faron Young recorded, as well as being his last album. It contains the style of singing he used in his shows, frequently a more relaxed and Dean Martin-ish performance than on his records. It also includes his off-the-cuff patter and politically incorrect jokes. This is Faron as his audiences saw him, without being filtered through media restrictions. The musicians were the final group of Country Deputies, and they sounded wonderful--especially Ernie Reed on fiddle.
I've listened to numerous Faron Young recordings while researching his life to write his biography. Nothing comes close to matching his live performance except this CD.

it dont get any better then this ... album way too short...
Unnoticed Gem
This is a great recording of a great entertainer at work. Amazingly--for a guy who was active for more than three decades--it's Faron Young's only live record. The label did not treat it with anything near the respect that it warranted. It got no promotion and the packaging is bare. But it's a true live recording of a performance at Gilley's in Branson, not some budget-line amalgam of performances from who knows where, with crowd noises interspersed. It has an ebb and flow with great singing and great storytelling including jokes about his ex-wife and anecdotes about Willie Nelson. The sound quality is excellent. Too bad the disc is not longer, with a few more songs, but the 40 minutes or so that's here is well worth hearing.
