Product Description
Amazon.co.uk Review
If you're of the opinion that the Grateful Dead comparisons that dog the Dave Matthews Band ring false, consider that with the release of Listener Supported, Matthews has put out more live albums (four, if you count Live at Luther College, a duet album with Tim Reynolds) than studio efforts (three, if you don't count the Recently EP). That's a lot of live albums, but Matthews fans probably wouldn't have it any other way. Now it's more possible than ever to haggle over which version of, say, "Warehouse"--which appears on Live at Red Rocks, Luther College, and the new album, as well as on Recently and Under the Table and Dreaming--is definitive. But "Warehouse" aside, the Matthews Band isn't making the same album over and over. Listener Supported contains a nice mix of tunes, albeit with a fair emphasis on their most recent studio effort, Before These Crowded Streets. Among the highlights is a funky, freewheeling take on "Rapunzel", and gorgeous readings of "#41", and the traditional country tune "Long Black Veil". With over two and a half hours of music, the album is enough to sate most DMB fans, at least until the next live album turns up. --Daniel Durchholz

An amazing cd, an essential to anyones collection. The blend of saxophone, violin, guitar and percussion that DMB produce is some of the finest live music you will find on CD. The ability of the musicians and the vocalists shine through in this fabulous CD, one of their best!

It's the most perfect live recording that I've ever heard - the sound quality is brilliant, and of course not to forget the great musicianship by the band. They come with unexpected solos and fill-ins that I find deliscous. Just listen to The Man on the drums himself, Carter Beauford, and his precise handling of the sticks. Or the king himself LeRoi Moore on his saxophones, with his great solos. We shall not forget about Dave Matthews who gives us the most possible out of his voice, or Boyd Tinsley on the violin and Stefan Lessard on the bass. I had no choice but to give this CD five stars, because I was so amused when I first listened to it. So I recommend every devoted fan of DMB to buy this recording at once!!! (I command them!!!) And this is also something for the one who understands music... (maybe not for techno-freaks...)

As a "techno" "freak" myself this is still one of the best possible live cd's out there. As a dave fan for several years though this still cannot touch the emotion of Red Rocks!
