Customer Reviews Good CD I was let down because I was expecting way more power from such a powerfull band but still I will recommend it to anyone who likes Golden Earring. Not as good as the accoustic concert of some note, but still good. A nice, long version of Radar Love was about the only saving grace this disc had to offer, and some equally long, very hypnotic cuts from the Moontan album were a nice touch too. Not for Everyone If you are a die hard Earring fan, you will definitly enjoy this album. Golden Earring Live is not for everyone. It is a honest, on the spot live recording, despite the fact that there is a extra guitar part all the way thru the recording that is not Barry Hay. Whomever did the job, however, was very capable. Barry's vocals get a bit lost in some parts of the recording, but there are many moments of sheer rock-n-roll magic that make it worth while. George Kooymans does a wonderful job of reproducing some very difficult harmony vocals with Barry. All in all, I would have to recommend it to all earring fans EXCEPT those who expect a perfect and polished product. This is a kick ass live rock-n-roll recording, warts and all. Great Live Golden Earring I have had a cassette of this album since 1994, and I love it. LIVE is a great concert recording from Golden Earring from right about the time when they were starting to merge Outlaws-style guitar jamming with Zeppelin heaviness and Floyd-like space rock. Get this, THE CONTINUING STORY OF RADAR LOVE, and SOMETHING HEAVY GOING DOWN all at once. . You can see a complete list of all Golden Earring discography, or go back to the Golden Earring tabs
