(More customer reviews)First off, the double disc I ordered and received from Amazon was an Import, hence the $20 price tag. For this band, I will gladly pay that price.
This release basically contains all of the best from the first 4 Mr. Big releases. Highlights that aren't as mainstream include "Baba O'Riley" "Promise Her the Moon" and "Next Time Around". Its truly a shame the original four didn't stay together as they are sorely missed by many of us. While I doubt we will see a US tour anytime soon, its very good of them to recognize their loyal Japanese fans with this double live disc, and the target song "I Love You Japan". Its true Mr. Big was far more popular overseas than in the US, but Eric, Paul, Billy and Pat prove that they can still shred with the best of them.
If you are a long-time fan or just checking out a different band for a change, this live compliation is a must.

Two CD release recorded during the Next Time Around Tour in 2009.Mr. Big is a Rock supergroup that formed in 1988. The band is a quartet composed of Eric Martin (vocals), Paul Gilbert (guitar), Billy Sheehan (bass), and Pat Torpey (drums). The band is noted especially for their excellent musicianship, intense live performances, and well-crafted songs. Prior to the formation of the group, each of the members already had a reputation of being virtuosos as well as established songwriters. Their songs were often marked with Eric Martin's strong lead vocals, four part band vocal harmonies, and a technical proficiency in all instruments. Their hits include 'To Be With You' (Billboard Hot 100 #1 single in 1991). Features two bonus new studio recordings plus an acoustic version of 'To Be With You'. Frontiers. 2009.
