Live At Rockpalast 1979

REO in 1979 were at their absolute peak but you'd never guess from this release. Rockpalast sets are usually (usually!) top quality (and I should know, I've got over two dozen of them) but this one really is the pits. The sound is muddy throughout with the vocals so far down in the mix they're all but inaudible. The whole thing sounds like it was recorded on a cheap cassette player. In the toilets. Next door. As another reviewer said, there are better actual bootlegs than this, way better. And don't get me started on the DVD...Do yourself a favour, don't buy this, you'll thank me!

...possibly the poorest sound quality since the Molly Hatchet one released several years ago.Look at the track listing i was so looking forward to this.From the moment the 'Pink Panther' intro finishes we get a bootleg quality sound,no proper instrument separation and the vocals buried in the mix.It reminds me of one of those expensive double vinyl bootlegs you got at record fayre's back in the day!How disappointed am I ? well i havent even bothered to watch the dvd thats how much..gutted expected better.
