Impressive and lenghty show for the release of the Exile album in 97.The incredible Richard Beasley's LIVE drumming adds life and variation to the more hypnotic and sedate studio versions of the songs in Sacrifice and Exile. Classics and singles are reworked in the full-on industrial style that were to be later embraced in full in ¨Pure ¨ ,his next album. The performance as a whole is energetic and magnificent.
The sound,on the other hand,is not good as one would expect from a 1997 Numan record.The midrange is muffled and subdued;the first 7 tracks are hopeless,with almost inaudible keyboards,vocals and guitars. From that point on, it can be eq'd OK but just that.Some of the songs even have great sound but the sound is recorded VERY low and
changes a lot from one song to another making it an audiophile's nightmare.GIG - 5 STARS / SOUND - 3 STARS = 4 STARS

Never heard Numan Live? Try This!!!
17 April 2004
Format:Audio CD
This album is of clear listening quality. The songs are good - an excellent introduction to what Gary Numan sounds like now. For some reason most people think that musicians stand still, and many have not realised that Numan is now well in the mainstream of rock, with Gothic and industrial overtones. The concert was recorded in 1997, and so does not include any of the songs from the universally-acclaimed 2000 album 'Pure'. But that means you get more of the tracks which you longer hear at a Numan show!
If you agree with my 4-star rating, go for some more of the 4 and 5-star raters.....

Great Concert, Bad Sound
7 May 2004
Format:Audio CD|Amazon Verified Purchase
If you're one of the many that wrote Gary Numan off after his song "Cars" peaked, you're missing one of the most extraordinary musical artists out there. He's been critisized for copying David Bowie, but quite honestly, in some ways I find Numan better and more interesting. And as far as the comparison goes, that was made years ago and really isn't all that relevant. The man has an amazing back catalog of music. I was able to see Gary on this tour when he made the rounds in America. It was my first "live" Nuamn experience and thought is was one of the best shows I ever saw (that's 20 years of concerts by the way!).
This concert was recorded back at the start of his '97 tour promoting "Exile." The set list touches from almost ever era of Gary's lengthy career, so there's something here for almost everyone. It's a bit of a different set list than what I remember (I think the reworked "Friends" started off the show I saw), but it's just as good. But like the show I saw, the sound was muffled. That comes through on the CD and prevents me from giving it a five star rating.

Numan at his best
20 April 2004
Format:Audio CD
Superb live double-cd recorded in London in 1997. Last year Cleopatra released Scarred, which was recorded in 2000, but this show is far more powerful and rocking. Great selection of songs, well produced, clear, crisp sound - one of the better live albums. Highly recommended.
