Best Of The Lively Ones Vol.2, The (Heads Up) - Lively Ones (The)

Advantages: 20 live quality tracks
Disadvantages: none

...A totally live double album from the glam rockers kiss. The quality of the production is amazing but you can still hear the bangs, crashes and explosions from the kiss show as fireworks explode on stage. Recorded on the famous Casablanca label. This is a fantastic live album. It shows kiss in all their make-up and stage presence. You wanted the best you got the best Kiss it is like having all of kiss's previous albums in one. The album demonstrates what a superb line up Kiss had at this stage in their history. All great musicans with an ability to sing when the occasion permitted and on this live recording all the members took their turn at the microphone. Favourite tracks include for me the ballard "Beth" and the classic rock tracks "Calling Dr Love and "Love Gun" 20 track classy double album. I would recommend this as a treat for any... Read review

Advantages: free DVD with josh cam, and video previews
Disadvantages: none

...After seeing this band live at the astoria in london I was glad to see that they had a live dvd out. And it was all i expected, jokes talent and warren fitzgerald dancing around in not much. A huge set from one of orange counties best punk bands,the eclectic guitars, comedy vocals and the tight drumming of one of the best in the world josh freese. Over 7 cameras capture this live show, including the josh cam which lets you view the josh for the whole show. highlights include pizza tran where josh gives a high five to dave whilst still playing. also the vocal and guitar harmonies during my brain tells my body adds a touch of class to this set. the drum solo during behind the music just tops off the album completely showing that josh is still one of the best in the business. and the encore of "I have a date" shows that live is where...

Advantages: Good tracks, bonus material
Disadvantages: A few too many mixes

...Have already rated the previous album (put your hands up vol.1) and many of my points apply to this album aswell. After continually listening to the first album i decided to buy this one aswell and again i was not disappointed. There is again a brilliant mix of tracks over 3 CD's including several remixes and club mixes such as that of Camille Jonesvs Fedded le Grande-The Creeps (club mix). This i believe to be one of the best but there are 62 other tunes that you will just want to get up and dance to. Again, as like the previous album there is bonus content on CD1 including 3 awesomw music videos including Fedde Le Grande-Put your hands up and Alex Gaudino-Destination Calabria. This is a really nice touch to the album and makes it a real gem.... Read review
