Get it
junior | chicago | 03/30/2008
(5 out of 5 stars)

"quite simply one of the best live pop albums ever. live, the smiths were very different from their records. they were a rock band. "Still Ill" and "I Know It's Over" are utterly heart-wrenching on this record. get it."
One of the few truly great live rock albums
Stalwart Kreinblaster | Xanadu | 06/19/2007
(5 out of 5 stars)

"the smiths only official live album 'rank' is a treasure among live albums.. morrissey's charismatic stage presence and vocal talent obviously seem to steal the show.. but this is a great band effort with some great guitar playing by johnny marr... the song selection covered all their albums up to that time and featured their current single 'ask'.. There is a great excitement to this album.. the band sounds fresh and daring.. it is a shame that they would break up so soon.. but that is the way it goes.. morrissey would go on to what is still proving to be a great solo career.."
Great selection live

"Hard to believe it's been 20 years since the release of this album, which came out after the band disbanded and just before Morrissey ventured out on his own.



This is not a "must have" but showcases some of the Smiths' best work (albeit mostly from The Queen is Dead).



Recording quality is average."
