4.0 out of 5 stars
not more of the same..., 10 Dec 1999
By JOHN M. - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live At The Nashville 1979 (Audio CD)
This disc will not convert the unbelievers, but if you are already a fan of 999's particular blend of rock and roll you will enjoy this one. The sound quality is ok..., it sounds like the tape is running a bit slow, and is a bit muddy. The song selection is cool though, with more uncommon songs like QUITE DISSAPOINTING, BRENT CROSS, TROUBLE, and BIGGEST PRIZE IN SPORT included. The best live 999 recording remains the vinyl ep "the biggest tour in sport," but this disc is a most adequate picture of the band at one of thier creative and popular high points.

poor sound quality, 22 April 2001
By bill sullivan - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live At The Nashville 1979 (Audio CD)
the cd is not worth [the price]. the vocals break up and the tape drags. the cd was made from a 20 year old amateurish tape and sounds like the quality of a worn cassete but it is clear. [....] if you can handle [inferior] sounding cds the content is good. i cant.

An 18 year old tape, 5 May 2001
By eveoflove - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Live At The Nashville 1979 (Audio CD)
Made in UK in 1997, Serial# CDPUNK-93, Playing Time 43:16Release #16 from the band, but recorded way back in 1979 at The Nashville in London for the "The Biggest Prize in Sport" tour, called "The Biggest TOUR in Sport".
Since releasing the "Face To Face" album back in 1985, there has been 4 other live albums ("Lust Power And Money", "Live And Loud!!", "The Cellblock Tapes" and "Live In L.A. 1991"), as well as the compilation "Scandal In The City"; basically, not much new stuff besides their "You Us It!" album from 1993.
The recording quality here is fair, with the bass up-front (for once!). The renditions are honest, and were recorded during what I consider to be their peak.
Of the tracks contained here, 3 deserve a special mention: "Brent Cross", a never-before released song, while "Lie Lie Lie" and "Ain't Gonna Tell Ya" were already released as b-sides.
Out of their numerous live albums, this one's my favorite because of the era and the material included, a "best of live" of sorts.
Not spectacular, but a good introduction to the band if you're unfamiliar with their stuff.
