Customer Review Had to be there... Unfortunately, it just doesn't quite work. CdeB is a performer with great charisma and having seem him hold an audience spellbound with just his guitar and voice I was eagerly anticipating this live solo set. The song selection and performance is great, but at nearly 2. 5 hours long the album just does not hold your interest in the same way a live show would. The real shame is that if it had been edited down to a single disc it would have been a fantastic live set and the perfect companion piece to the vastly superior "High on Emotion" concert album. As it stands, it is a great souvenir for those who attended the show, but for the rest of us it is not concise enough to pack a real punch. .
