Description

As the first live rock concert I ever witnessed (the Hammersmith Odeon version in 1980), this album holds a special place and allows me the indulgence of writing a gratuitous and effusive review. Even if I wanted to show some restraint, it would be impossible in the face of such a truly dynamic and forceful live performance.After appearing on the scene with Montrose and long before adding a new dimension to the Van Halen franchise, Hagar was demonstrating his full mastery of the guitar-driven rock show. That he was such a powerful force on stage was only tempered by the somewhat restrained showingmore… on his studio albums. The guitar playing of both Hagar and Gary Phil (what ever happened to him?) are sensational and Bill ‘The Electric’ Church provides a bass line onto which you could build a fortress. Exploding into life with ‘Red’, the energy barely relents. Sadly it’s over too soon and having sat for the duration of ‘Bad Motor Scooter’ with your jaw firmly on your chest, it is one of rock music’s greatest travesties that the producers saw fit to fade it out before its completion. Disappointing production aside, this should have a place in your top ten live rock albums.
