cd review: All generic and cliche praise aside, Live At The Greek Theatre showcases this legendary band at their best as they play songs from all of their albums spanning a 90 minute set. The sound quality is good. The performance is probably among their best, featuring warm crowd interaction and astute musicianship. And the videography is great. The CD is a little choppy as there are some pronounced cuts between songs which are kind of annoying when the volume is cranked up. A few years back they released a similar packaged called Whiskey On A Sunday which still holds a semi-permanent place in my CD player: but, overall this neat little new package is worthy of the utmost in generic comments: it's a must have for any fan.
