Whether a review is positive, negative, or neutral, we always publish it. However, we screen every review to ensure it is authentic and free of profanity. These checks happen automatically, though a human occasionally steps in. We never pay for reviews.
Ohhh… let me use this chance to share just how amazing this Artist is… Unbelievable! It's almost impossible to think that this is a Live Album. I'd struggle to accept it if there weren't the cheering parts (and having caught LM live a few times myself, just to be sure and witness/hear for myself 😂)
Amazon's running out... don't miss your chance to grab a copy quick!
This release is pure luxury. The packaging is top-notch, featuring a thick gatefold sleeve with a rubberized texture. I've never seen records this crystal clear, they're almost glass-like! The sound quality is fantastic, considering it was likely recorded digitally. The noise level is incredibly low and quiet. What truly amazed me is the stereo separation! Remarkable for a live album. The dynamics are superb as well. This concert was clearly well-recorded, and this transfer proves it. I suspect this pressing used the same lacquers as the 2014 black vinyl 180g version. Honestly, I can't imagine the 180g could sound any better than this (though I haven't heard it, so if anyone can share their thoughts, we'd all be grateful). Loreena's incredibly powerful vocals, especially with 'esses', could easily cause sibilance on many turntables. This is largely avoided here. By the way, upgrading your stylus to a good elliptical, fine-line or better design will help eliminate sibilance and inner-grove distortion. Like the others before me, I highly recommend grabbing this while you still can.
To be truthful, this is among the greatest live albums I've ever listened to. You can hear nothing but sheer love and passion for every single song, and the band is phenomenal. Loreena, as always, is at her absolute best! The quality of this pressing is also really good, with excellent dynamics and a quiet, noise-free experience! A very nice release that I would recommend to anyone who's a fan!
