"I get goosebumps when I think of this album. "Live" doesn't even do it justice. It was explosive. Feb 6, 1972 at Carnegie Hall. "One Fine Morning, Take it Slow" and "I Just Wanna be Your Friend" were the staples of this one fine album but I particularly like the band's versions of "Rockin' Chair, Insane and the "Byrd's" classic "Eight Miles High", the latter mainly because Lighthouse just doesn't play it anymore. The only complaint with the album is I had wished they had done another if only so that songs such as "Pretty Lady" and" Sunny Days" could have been included. I'm fortunate enough to be living in "Lighthouse country" so I get quite a few opportunities to see them even now. If we can get Amazon to put some sound clips with the album selections, then more of you can find and appreciate what most of us already know. Lighthouse rocked...and still does."

Best Live cd I have ever heard

"WOW! If you like rock/jazz with the power of a live gig, this is the cd for you. Lighthouse, for those of you who don't know was an powerhouse in the 70,s. Under the leadership of Skip Procop this group broke all bounderies, groups like Chicago, Blood Sweat and Tears, owe much to this group. Songs on this cd that stand out, 1849, Sweet Lulabye, and The Byrds-Eight Miles High.
This is one of those must haves for your collection."
