Average Reviews:
(More customer reviews)Garth Brooks isn't your traditional and typical country singer. With music roots that go back to his love for Kiss when he was younger, it is obvious through this double live album that he tries to emulate what Kiss did on their own Double Live albums, and through their shows. And you know what, Garth succeeds.
Nothing about this double live album is dull. Garth shows through his music what a true performer he is, and you only need to listen to this album to understand why everyone raves about his showmanship.
With classics that range from Friends in Low Places to newer songs such as The American Honky Tonk Bar association Garth brings a little rock to his country, and a little country to his rock, and he does it exceptionally well.
Garth brings his own style to country.
In each song he performs he speaks volumes with emotion. Songs like "We shall be free" touch the soul completely.
Other songs such as "The American Honky Tonk-Bar Association" and his exceptional cover and redo of Aerosmith's "The Fever" has one tapping their foot along to the beat of the music.
Whether he is being cocky and confident, or humble and tearful, through and through he brings emotion to the music, and it is heard not only through his voice, and the lyrics but through the crowd, and the atmosphere.
Songs such as "The Thunder rolls" and "Friends in low places" are two songs, in which the extra verses can only be heard in concert and the response to those extra verses is enough to hear it.
Garth's connection with his fans is obvious, and what is even more obvious is his own enjoyment at seeing how much his fans love his shows.
And it wouldn't be right without Trisha Yearwood singing a duet with Garth, as she does on "Wild is the wind".
This Cd is a must to all Garth fans. And for those who aren't Garth fans this is the album that will either make you one, or not.
The best way to listen to this is to turn down the lights, turn up the music, close your eyes and let Garth take you there.

Two CD live set from the Country superstar. Double Live finds Garth revisiting 22 of his hits and fan favorites alongside three new cuts: 'It's Your Song', 'Wild As The Wind' (with future wife Trisha Yearwood) and 'Tearin' It Up (And Burnin' It Down'. Garth runs through each of the live tracks like a man possessed, treating each song with the energy of a Tasmanian devil (and loving every minute of it). Recorded over the period of a few years, this excellent set, originally released in 1998, is icing on his catalog cake.--This text refers to an alternate Audio CD edition.
