Questions arise when considering that this is the first official live album issued by one of rock's most brilliant guitarists. One wonders what we might have heard had he released a live album in his prime, after the release of 1976's "Troubadour." But, like plenty other squandered opportunities at greatness in Cale's notoriously complacent career, it just happens that, three decades into it, he issues his first official live album. However, this live set demonstrates that Cale has aged very well, as the album contains a handful of the most brilliant live performances in rock history.
Every time JJ Cale delivers the kind of performance that critics and fans are always promising, some people, such as myself, are left wondering "well, why can't he do more of that?" JJ Cale's absolutely riveting solo performance of After Midnight on this live CD is just such a circumstance. It is one of the most memorable live performances by a formidable artist in rock history. Perhaps I am one of those insatiably selfish hardcore fans, but after hearing that performance, I could not help but entertain fantasies of a solo JJ Cale tour. When he is joined by a bass player on Old Man, the result is just as powerfully raw, and when he is joined by the band on Call Me The Breeze and Sensitive Kind, it seems as though this is one of the most fantastic live rock albums ever.
The bursts of brilliance that punch through the album's quieter moments are well-worth the price, and if this CD contained nothing but the first four songs, it would still be worth the price, as they are four of the most memorable live rock performances ever. A potential mishap here is that these live sets were recorded upon the release of Cale's albums, 1994's Closer To You and 1996's Guitar Man. Not one song from either album appears on this live CD. So, as always with JJ Cale, fans must take the good with the what-might-have-been, and thankfully, that has always proved to be a rewarding exchange. It is an exceptionally well-engineered and mastered live album.
