1.Live at Blues Alley by: Eva Cassidy July 28, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $16.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $13.99 You Save: $2.99 (18%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $9.45
With the exception of the last song on the disc (Oh, Had I a Golden Thread), these songs were recorded live as Eva Cassidy performed and sang them -- no overdubs or substitutions -- and they sound great. Her voice is wonderful, bright, crisp and clear, and she has a way of making each song her own. The recording also includes her introductions to the songs. If you have her other CDs then you owe it to yourself to get this live set.

2.Nights from the Alhambra - (Jewel 2 CD + DVD) by: Loreena McKennitt August 21, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $26.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $23.99 You Save: $2.99 (11%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $19.63
This cd/DVD set of Loreena McKennitt's performance in the beautiful and mystical Alhambra is indeed very special for her fans as well as newcomers to her enchanting voice and unusual instruments. Applause time is minimal with more time for the music, which is clear and lovely. The DVD and optional commentary in which she speaks of the history of the Alhambra is educational as well as beautiful. Thanks to Loreena McKennitt for this special performance.

3.The Bootleg Series, Vol. 4: Bob Dylan Live, 1966: The "Royal Albert Hall Concert" by: Bob Dylan October 13, 1998
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $19.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $13.97 You Save: $6.01 (30%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $8.70
For a while the most bootlegged rock record of all. When this was released in 1998 I rushed out and bought it immediately. I had an old cassette recording that somebody had copied from somebody else from a bootleg LP. So at least 3rd hand and thought I would never see the day that Dylan allowed this to be issued properly. I'm not going to talk about the recordings, as other reviewers have already covered these in ample detail. The CD's (2) are well packaged with a 54 page booklet which gives you a lot of information into the background and history of these recordings. As a leftfield starter the booklet mentions the famous 1913 Stravinsky performance of "The Rite of Spring" which caused a riot. Despite this excellent packaging its the recordings that will grab you by the throat. ... Read More

4.The Bootleg Series, Vol. 6: Bob Dylan Live 1964 - Concert at Philharmonic Hall by: Bob Dylan March 30, 2004

Well, if you don't have this do yourself a favour and buy it. The package is great with great photos from the show. As for Dylan, he is in high spirits and most possibly stoned out of his mind as he laughs, shares jokes, forgets lyrics... He is also delivering all songs passionately making this one concert a very special indeed. A mere three months later he was recording Bringing It All Back Home and by doing so he was also a new Dylan.

5.Bob Dylan Live 1975 (The Bootleg Series Volume 5) by: Bob Dylan November 26, 2002
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $19.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $14.99 You Save: $4.99 (25%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $7.56
Bob Dylan is a genius, but this sh#t is sh#t. Pales in comparison to both the bootleg series concerts from 1964 and 1966. In Rolling Thunder, what's with all the shouting lyrics? Too self-indulgent with his voice and musical arrangements. Plus bland generic 70's rock-style sound from the band. Very overrated music which will not stand the test of time like his better stuff. For hardcore fans only.

6.Greatest Stories Live by: Harry Chapin October 25, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $11.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $10.99 You Save: $0.99 ( 8%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $4.96
I love Harry Chapin and this is a great album, but be warned that this CD version is not the full album. It's missing two cuts: Love is Just Another Word, and She is Always Seventeen. I bought this to replace a cassette tape I have had forever and noticed that the number of tracks didn't match. Then I noticed a disclaimer in very small print that these two songs weren't included "due to time restrictions." Personally, I think this is a bit of a ripoff. To make matters even worse, neither of those songs is available as an MP3 download.

8.The Concert in Central Park by: Simon & Garfunkel October 25, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $18.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $14.99 You Save: $3.99 (21%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $1.99
The sound quality of the CD is terrible. It sounds like a homemade cassette tape. The music is plain enough, but it plays much softer than any other CD and sounds like it's coming from cheap speakers.

9.In Times Like These by: Arlo Guthrie with the University of Kentucky Symphony Orchestra July 10, 2007
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $17.99 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $13.99 You Save: $4.00 (22%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $9.98
all the tracks are wonderful...live for his 60th birthday and my favorite is the "bonus" track of "I can't help falling in love".Arlo brings a new emotional,loving feeling to this song!He is a favorite of mine for years...and true fans need to include this in their collection!

10.Rust Never Sleeps by: Neil Young & Crazy Horse October 25, 1990
Average Rating: >>More Details		List Price: $13.98 Off The Bookshelf's Price: $9.97 You Save: $4.01 (29%) Prices subject to change. Used Price: $4.50
Coming off of the harrowing power of their lamenting "Tonight's The Night", Neil Young and Crazy Horse later proved their tenacity with this clever concept album. It's interesting how the spirit of rock and roll can be captured by merely turning up the distortion for each consecutive track, until the first song is practically remade with a scratchy, loud, and almost total revision. The tracks in the middle, unfortunately, seem like filler for this concept and not much else. But the message of "Rock and Roll Will Never Die" is made clearer with each turn of the effects dial, and the result is almost scary.
