Customer Reviews Just plain good Very limited crowd noise for a live cd. This cd is either sold out or in short supply most places. Radar Love a bit overdone but this is Golden Earring at their best. Live at it's best The live versions of Twighlight Zone and Radar Love totally blow away the studio versions. Greeeaaaatttt live album. Too bad this album isn't available in most markets in the USA. . It kicks! The sound very relaxed and glad to be back home. "Something Heavy Going Down" was recorded live in Leiden, Holland in 1984, as a "back home" concert after their return from their final US tour. The version of "Radar Love" on this album kicks serious amounts of ass. Seriously, it rocks HEAVY and blows the studio version out of the water. There's a great version of "Long Blond Animal" (although not quite as fast and heavy as on The Last Blast Of The Century album), a cool studio recorded song (the title track), and "Mission Impossible" has a couple of terrific guitar solos. "Enough Is Enough" is pretty good, too. The only thing that's a little dissapointing is "Clear Nite Moonlight", the studio version is better in my opinion. Overall, "Something Heavy Going Down" is a terrific live album, and is worthy to stand with "Bloody Buccaneers", "Moontan" "Last Blast Of The Century", and "Millbrook USA". . .
