 An intense live performance!
Great live performance by Racer X! I would have liked to have songs like "Hammer Away", "Rock It", "Getaway", "Scarified", or "On The Loose" on this live album. Those are killer Racer X songs that would have sounded awesome if they were recorded on this live album. Jeff Martin is an excellent front man and the crowd loves him. I like how Bruce, John, Paul, and Scott all have featured solos on this live recording. You get to hear the song "Frenzy" inside of Paul's Solo. John's Bass Solo is one of the best tracks on this album. I like Scott Travis' hyperspeed drumming but I liked Harry Ghoessher's drumming more. He had control, balance, and intensity mixed together that flowed smoother than Travis' drumming. You also get 3 tracks that are not available on any of the other Racer X albums. If you enjoy listening to guitarists like Eddie Van Halen, Nuno Bettencourt(I think I spelled his last name wrong), Yngwie Malmsteem, or Vinnie Vincent, this recording is a must have! One word to describe Racer X would be intensity!

This is essential Racer X! The band play a smokin' show and the sound is great! Recorded earlier in their career, you can tell the band is in top form. Paul,Bruce,John & Scott all perform solo's. A must have for any Racer X fan!
