Good representation of the Harding live show I've seen Harding live many times and, if anything, I've always complained that his studio releases fall far short of his live shows. I disagree completely with the first review. This CD gives you insight into Harding's on-stage humor as well as the energy of his live appearances. The songs may be a bit faster than on his studio albums, but they also have a lot more spontaneity and vitality. Very good CD. I'd recommend it over almost any of his studio releases. Raw and Live Wes Because it's a live album, it captures the spontaneity and energy of his shows, as well as the intimacy of his music. This was the second album of Wes' I bought back in college and I was more than pleasantly surprised. I now own all of his albums and this is still one of my favorites.
