Fanatics Rejoice
The production on this CD isn't the best. As was the case with the original "Left for Live," the tracks are all taken from a live board mix. This means we only hear John Entwistle's bass through on stage mics, clearly not the best way to record it.
However, Steve Luongo has tried to re-create what sitting the audience was like. The on-stage banter reveals Entwistle's humorous personality. And like a few shows I saw, the band stops a song after John fumbles it, only to nail it after a joke.
For the casual listener, buy the King Biscuit CD, or the "Thunderfingers" collection. For fans like me, this a great way to remember a musical genius in his favorite setting.
THE WHO S' MUSIC PLAYED BY THE OX BAND!!!
This double cd reveals the inner feelings of John Entwistle as he can play for the first time and with his own band, many of the songs he wrote and recorded with THE WHO, but never played in concert with them. I will never understand why he never stayed strong for him to sing and the Who to play more of his songs (in the later years) others than "My Wife" or "Boris the Spider". Only on the 1982 tour THE WHO gave him more spot playing not only "My Wife" or "Boris the Spider", but also "Dangerous" or "The Quiet One". For the 1989 tour THE WHO played "Too Late the Hero" on their first five concerts and then retired the song to include "Trick of the Light", "Fiddle About" or ocasionally "Cousin Kevin" in addition to "My Wife" and "Boris the Spider". So here he plays all the aforementioned songs but also, "905", "Succes Story", "Wiskey Man", "Heaven and Hell" and many others recorded with THE WHO. Also in the set some solo songs mainly from his last studio cd "MUSIC FOR VAMPYRES". So this cd may be considered as the concert THE WHO never played. When John Entwistle died i hoped for his band THE WHO, to play more of his songs as a way to remember him, but not one of the songs he penned for the band has been played since. Their management has not even take the time to produce a cd with other people playin his songs or to organize a concert to honour him playin the songs he wrote for THE WHO...it is a shame.
For newcomers and old fans this is a good cd but the production is not the best. Lets hope another live cd with better production arrives one day. I understand the JEB Woodstock concert will be produced in dvd and cd as well. Also there are many unreleased songs he recorded for his first albums and also for the "Vampire" cd sessions. And also, his drummer STEVE LUONGO has said that John Entwistle did record many new songs as "demos" for the upcoming new WHO cd.
Here the best songs are "Trick of the Light", "905", "Had Enough", "Wiskey Man" and "Under a Ragin Moon" among many others.
The Ox-at some of his FINEST MOMENTS!!
This 2 CD set is ABSOLUTELY amazing!! Having had the pleasure to see the John Entwistle Band a couple of times, and see THE MASTER performing his craft-up close......WOW!! Having recently purchased the Bose Acoustic Wave Music System......THE OX NEVER sounded this good-(except for live)! I HIGHLY recommend these CD'S!! And, while you're at it-buy the first one, too! (Left for Live)! Cannot miss on either of these!! And TURN IT UP LOUD--ESPECIALLY THE BASS!! WHAT ARE YOU WAITING FOR??? ENJOY!!
