Daft Punk Alive 2007 CD

In 2001, Parisian house duo Daft Punk released a bestselling live album (ALIVE 1997) recorded at the height of their commercial success. It is a testament to the unit's creativity and staying power that their second live album, recorded a decade later, also entered the charts immediately on its release. Captured in June '07 at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, the blistering set is presented with excellent sound fidelity, and includes their biggest U.S. hit, "Face to Face."

2007 live release from the French Electronic duo recorded at the Palais Omnisports de Paris-Bercy, an 18,000-capacity sports arena in Paris, on June 14th, 2007. The CD captures the exuberant multi-media spectacle of Thomas Bangalter and Guy-Manuel de Homem-Christo's first hometown show in 10 years in front of a capacity crowd of thrilled fans. Virgin.
