"Im back home in London England" are the cries of Alexander O'Neal i nthe opening track "Innocent"
"I Thought You Knew!" He bellows out to everyone.
Well being one Alex's biggest fans, I certainly know. I've been to see Mr O'Neal over 10 times since 97 alone. And I was lucky to be at this gig which has gone on to be the live Album. He Loves England, he had a few words to say about his country america - not the nicest I may add.
It was a wet November night in London, where Alex performed to another packed out crowd.
He goes through all his hits, "What Can I Say" is truly electrifying. His ballads are always his forte. "A Broken Heart Can Mend" sends shivers down my spine everytime he sings it. "The Lovers" is just pack full of that soulful melody that Alex hits so well.
It was nice to see him do tracks from the All true man album - four in fact. The title track, Sentimental, Shame on Me (was the first time i'd ever heard him sing that live) and the encore track What is this thing called love.
Of course the big tracks were on display. Criticize and Fake are both there - going on for over 10 mins each. The two major ballads are there too - Sunshine is just fantastic. And you get the 5 minute bedscene which leads into Alex's defining song - If You Were Here Tonight.
100 Minutes on here - and this has been edited down so you can imagine how good it was to be there.
Alexander O'Neal is the best Live performer I have ever seen. He is amazing. And for many Americans it is a shame that they will not really see much of him as he has adopted England as his new home.
Don't miss out on this wherever you are - spend the money and buy it.

With this new soulful, up beat album containing all his classics, he proves he still has all the magic of the eighties. I am thoroughly enjoying this new addition to my collection. It is a serious must for any Alexander O'Neal fan, and I can't reccomend it strongly enough.

"Live" album reveals singer's limitations
As one that has long admired the grittiness of O'Neal, I looked forward to his first live album. A singer that had a slew of hits in the late eighties through early nineties,... Read more
