Excellent !!!!
I heard one song of theirs The Dolphin's Cry and it sent me on a whirlwind to find and hear the rest of what they have to offer !! I'd love to see them live - up close and personal :)
. One of their BEST CD's This group is amazing in my opinion - I own every CD they have !!! Of course its my own opinion.


Chunderama
After he celebrated the subsequent end of his spiritual journey with the upbeat, anthemic hymns of 1999's 'The Distance to Here', Ed Kowalczyk no longer seemed to have anything to offer to fuel the creativity behind Live's music. Funny how a settled family life can be one of the worst influences on the music of a rock musician. What remains - and is accentuated most on this effort - are a series of factory-assembled tracks manufactured specifically for the blooming adult-contemporary market. The other band members do their best to work with the material supplied, but nothing on this album has the substance or inspiration of the band's work in the 90s.


What a disappointment!
Don't buy this album if you expect it to rock like any of their previous albums. I have been a fan of Live since Throwing Copper, and so far loved all but one other cd. It doesn't. I couldn't even make it through the second song and I like all types of music. Wow. I read another review where they hope Live will make another heavy dark album. . . me too. Although, I sorely doubt it. .


Songs from Black Mountain
If you are a LIVE fan then you have got to get this cd. I LOVE this CD, it is one of the BEST from LIVE. It is different then the rest, but every Live cd is different. Trully an awesome band. .


Beautiful, Brilliant, Edgey, Soulful
I beg to differ from critics who say that LIVE's songs are preachy. Songs from Black Mountain continues LIVE's quality of music, albeit with a more gentle aspect. They simply reflect the songwriter's and the band's passions and convictions. Like they said, "They Stood Up For Love". I appreciate this and congratulate them for it. They have proven that good rock, alternative or however you want to call it, doesn't have to be eardrum-busting music and that good, no correction, excellent songs can make sense and in fact move people and touch them to the core.
I thank them for their songs and hope that they continue on.
