Live From the Fall is better
If your a Blues Traveler fan, though, your money's much better spent on Live From the Fall than this album. I picked up Live on the Rocks at a secondhand music store and it's worth what I paid for it ($7). For one, Live From the Fall is a double album, which means more Blues Traveler good-ness for your buck.

This album is decent, but doesn't hold a candle to Live From the Fall.


Most Cohesive of the Live Albums
This live recording is much stronger than 2002's Live: What You And I Have Been Through. I've had some issues with recent Blues Traveler recordings, but I'm a diligent fan, and I've bought them all. It merges over a decade of Blues Traveler material pretty much seamlessly, and has a great cover of No Woman No Cry with Ziggy Marley. I'm a huge fan, and this album was a joy to listen to the first time around. That's a strong departure from both Bridge and Truth Be Told, which left me wanting until I had heard them a few times and allowed them to grow on me.

A side note: I was at Barnes & Noble and the music kiosk listed "This Ache" as "This Acne. " It gave me a good laugh.
