Customer Reviews: not a bad "live" CD, but...   August 7, 2006 The Lone Wolf (Charlottesville, VA, USA) 0 out of 1 found this review helpful It's been more than 10 years since "Burning Japan Live". A very busy decade for the Voice of Rock, back in track and rocking harder than ever. So, why not putting out a live double CD? (in the ole times tradition of double live LPs). This sounds like a good starting point, but... yeah, there's a but. The but is that this is not live in concert, more like live in the studio with some people around. One of the great things about live LPs was the interaction with the audience (case in point, "Burning Japan Live", twelve years ago), the noise, the people cheering... none of this show up here, it's an utterly passive audience seemingly listening to a piano recital. Come on, people, it's rock n'roll!! So, if you are looking for a "Live" with an "alive" feeling, this is not a good starter. However, the music here is not bad at all (specially if you're Glenn's fan). Here's my personal take on this CD (please note there's a DVD of the same concert, which is so awfully shot it's not probably worth a second thought, I know firsthand!). Mr. Hughes opens it up on a very high note with "Can't stop the flood", a recent staple from his catalogue which makes up to an excellent opener. Then, the two highlights of the "Songs in the key of rock" CD, "Higher places" and "Written all over your place". Here, I began to wonder how could it be that the people there weren't rocking, shouting along or something. Maybe it was a zombie audience. These two are extremely hard-roking songs with a soul feeling that justifies the title of the CD alone. "Written..." is my personal favourite from Glenn in the last few years, and the version here is very good, slightly inferior in intensity to the studio version, but worth repeated listening anyway. Then, Mr. Hughes hits the "Trapeze" section of the concert, with energetic reprises of the classic "Medusa" and "Seafull", from the Medusa album, one of the most overlooked gems of the early 70s hard rock landscape. The versions here are updated arrangements-wise and sound like heavy Purple-esque songs with emphasis on Glenn's soulful yet soaring vocals. He intercalates one of the least interesting songs from the "Songs in the key of rock" CD, "Wherever you go", which is a bit of filler, specially amidst such an intense section. The second CD leans on older material, mainly from his stint with Deep Purple and the Hughes/ Thrall project. The CD opens up with "Coast to Coast", an old song co-written with Tommy Bolin and recorded in the studio as part of the Hughes/ Thrall LP. There are live versions available in many other CDs, and there's nothing specially interesting about this one. "First step of love", which follows, is another song from the Hughes/ Thrall project, which comes as a surprise, since it's not usually part of his live repertoire. Since more than 20 years have passed, some of the lines of the song sound dated, but the band injects some fuel in it, saving it from being filler. The concert wraps up with two classic songs from the "Come taste the band" Deep Purple LP, "Getting tighter" and the last one, "You keep on moving". Glenn keeps the first one very alive with funky bass grooves and high-pitched antics, whereas "You keep on moving", with its sudden pace changes is a classic staple from his live show and doesn't disappoint. Between these two, he burns it up with (yet) another version of the classic DP song "Mistreated", from the "Burn" LP. His version is very different from that of Coverdale with Whitesnake, since he focuses more on the high range of the song and we lack some of the macho bluesiness DC injected in the song. However, it's one of the climaxes. The CD has a couple of non-LP songs that were left out of LP-length releases for good reasons. Nuff said, I almost never listen to them. The band is inspired throughout the procedures (special mentions to Glenn's long-time guitar player JJ Marsh and friend drummer Chad Smith from the Red Hot Chili Peppers), but there's some lack of primal fire in this recording that doesn't allow it to stand out of the crowd. If you're a fan, go for it by any means, since there are some first-time-recorded live versions, but if you're just starting to discover Mr. Hughes' catalog, go for "Burning Japan Live", which is louder, stronger and more consistent, apart from delivering the definitive live versions of the aforementioned "Coast to Coast" and specially "You keep on moving". Pretty good album....   October 24, 2005 njrobbo (Bayonne, NJ) 1 out of 4 found this review helpful My thoughts on this are; he invited the audience into the studio, so it's not so much live in the traditional sense, it's more like a recital & Glenn makes himself out to be more of a legend in his own mind than the rest of us. He is a great singer & has his place as a rock icon--but he believes his own hype which he only gives himself. Just think what Trapeze could have been. Phenomenal live C.D.!!   May 1, 2005 William Lee (York, England) 6 out of 7 found this review helpful This C.D. is a must for all fans of Glenn Hughes and/or rock music in general. The first things that hit you are the sheer quality of Glenn's voice and the quality of the musicians in the band behind him. Since his days with Trapeze, Glenn Hughes has been producing great music and he just keeps getting better (as can be attested by listening to his new album 'Soul Mover'). There is not a bad nor an average track on this wonderful double album (in fact, I have never come across a bad or average track on any Glenn Hughes album), but I do recommend the prospective buyer to listen to the track 'Written All Over Your Face' in which Glenn's voice soars. This live version (the original is to be found on 'Songs In The Key Of Rock') still gives me goose bumps when I listen to it and I can't begin to count how many times that I have played it. To anyone who is reading this who doesn't have 'Soulfully Live In The City Of Angels', in their collection, then I advise you most strongly to get it. You will not be disappointed; I promise!!! The voice of Glenn Hughes and his music continue to be an inspiration to me. CERTAIN CONTENT THAT APPEARS ON THIS SITE COMES FROM AMAZON SERVICES LLC.
