Editorial Reviews

From Amazon.com

One of the better known southern rock bands of the 1970s, The Outlaws enjoyed some moderate success with hits like "There Goes Another Love Song." Following in the tradition of practically every band who had a contract at that time, The Outlaws released an obligatory live album in 1978. Their harmonies, both vocal and guitar, held up pretty well on stage, as evidenced by the before mentioned "Love Song," and "Freeborn Man," as well as "I Hope You Don't Mind." "Hurry Sundown," another Outlaws classic gets an equally fine treatment. But of course, the real meat comes at the end of the show with "Green Grass and High Tides." Taking a cue from Lynyrd Skynyrd's "Free Bird," The Outlaws wrote an epic of their own. "Green Grass" starts as an up-tempo country croon, but it's not long before they let the hammer down. As was de rigueur, the band pulls out all the era's stops, throwing drum breaks, dueling guitar leads that go on for about three days, and several false endings into the pot before The Big Finish. It's a great documented moment of a band at the height of both its own powers, and those of an entire era. --Steve Gdula

Customer Reviews

I Came Back Alive (barely) (2004-06-07)

The Outlaws were definitely a concert band, so this cd (or "album" for us old folks) is a hot item.In 1979, there were so many of us who wanted to travel 3 hours to see The Outlaws at Tanglewood (on the New York border of Mass.), that we chartered two greyhound busses, plus tons of carloads. Though the weather was clear and warm, it had rained for days before. So when more beer was in people than in the kegs, the fights broke out -- many fights even right in front of the stage! The place turned into a mud bowl. The band kept a playin. I remember most of it. It's amazing how merciful God is to let so many of us live through our 1970s foolishness. Now maybe it's time to hear the music all over again with a clear mind, and blessed to be alive.

A CLASSIC FROM ONE OF THE BEST BANDS EVER ! (2003-12-20)

The OUTLAWS were among the absolute finest bands/guitarists ever to walk the planet and this album is a fitting live tribute and record of their incredible music and skills. Their talent is unmatched to this day and they are sorely missed. Especially notable is the accurate, complex and steady backup from their bass player and drummer who worked very hard to complete the mission and provide as the incredible backbone of the music. Thankfully (and lucky for us) this recording documents their energy and talents. This is the among the finest guitar work you'll ever hear from anyone, anywhere. No one did it better back then, no one does it better now, and no one ever will, in a 3-guitarist configuration with this kind of music. This album is a treasure!

The Co-Best Live Album Ever (2003-12-17)

Along with the Outlaws' own HITTIN' THE ROAD LIVE, Lynyrd Skynyrd's ONE MORE FROM THE ROAD, LYVE FROM STEEL TOWN, LYVE 2004, and SOUTHERN BY THE GRACE OF GOD, Blackfoot's HIGHWAY SONG and GREATEST HITS LIVE, Molly Hatchet's LIVE AT THE AGORA BALLROOM, GREATEST HITS LIVE, DOUBLE TROUBLE LIVE, and LOCKED AND LOADED, Foghat's LIVE, ROAD CASES, and DECADES LIVE, Ted Nugent's DOUBLE LIVE GONZO! and LIVE AT HAMMERSMITH '79, and Blue Oyster Cult's EXTRATERRESTRIAL LIVE, SOME ENCHANTED EVENING, and ON YOUR FEET OR ON YOUR KNEES, BRING IT BACK ALIVE is the best live album by any rock band, Southern or otherwise. With Freddie Salem replacing Henry Paul, the Outlaws now had three hot lead guitarists, and the lead and harmony vocals were still as good as ever. Get BEST OF THE OUTLAWS: GREEN GRASS AND HIGH TIDES, BRING IT BACK ALIVE, the self-titled debut, HURRY SUNDOWN, LADY IN WAITING, PLATINUM & GOLD COLLECTION, THE HERITAGE COLLECTION, THE ENCORE COLLECTION, DIABLO CANYON, HITTIN' THE ROAD LIVE, and SO LOW all at once if possible.

POUND FOR POUND (2003-01-31)

Pound for pound, this is one of the best live albums ever produced. Period. That I've owned the 8 track, cassette, and CD version of it (besides dating myself), speaks volumes. It ranks right alongside Skynyrd's One More From The Road and the Stones' Get Yer Ya-Ya's Out! (the two of which I've also had multiple versions of) as a live album you can listen to from beginning to end without skipping any tracks. A fitting testament to the Florida Guitar Army - The Outlaws.

A Hot One From The Outlaws (2002-09-07)

This live album by the Outlaws is just incredible. With Freddie Salem replacing Henry Paul, the group now had 3 hot lead guitar players and singers, and here the group's Allmans-Skynyrd blend reaches its peak. While you're getting BEST OF, OUTLAWS, HURRY SUNDOWN, LADY IN WAITING, PLATINUM & GOLD COLLECTION, THE HERITAGE COLLECTION, THE ENCORE COLLECTION, DIABLO CANYON, HITTIN' THE ROAD LIVE, and SO LOW, get this one.
