I think this is a superb live album and definately a great idea for any Blind Melon fans. It's nice to hear the band playing a nice mixture of old and new material and although Shannon's voice is very husky it's still a superb performance.
Unfortunately while the music itself would get 5 stars, there are a few problems with this cd.....
The tracklisting is completely wrong on the cd case, luckily when you put the cd into itunes or a similar package it names the tracks correctly, it's just a shame the record company couldn't get it right on the packaging.
While we're on the subject of the packaging, it would have been nice to have a booklet or something to accompanty the cd. As it stands, all you get is a pretty nondescript picture with the bands name over it and no information on the gig at all.
I would welcome further live cd's like this but hope that EMI and Capitol spend some more time on the cd case.

a message from Rogers Stevens (Blind Melon guitarist)
6 April 2006
Format:Audio CD
Dear friends of the Melon,
We are very disappointed with the new "Live at the Palace" release. I have not seen a hard copy of the disc yet, but I was aware several months ago that the track list was scrambled when they made an aborted attempt to put it on Itunes, but did not know that this was off on the disc as well. We've been around the bend with Capitol about this, and they pretty much did what they wanted to anyway. The band does not have a manager now, so we didn't have anyone to run interferece with the label, and were dealing with it ourselves. We hated the cover, nobody who worked on it was credited, and it was put together without any consideration for our wishes. Last year, we worked closely with Capitol to release the "best of" and "live at the metro" releases, but some new people took over and just didn't care for our input. If you go to itunes Australia or England, you'll see the cover that we picked, which fits the theme of the other releases. Brad and Christopher spent a week mixing this thing and got no credit. Lyle Eaves (our live sound engineer) facilitated the recording...and again no credit. We wanted to honor our crew members who stuck with us through some unbelievably difficult touring...again no credit. We stand by the quality of the show and recording, but cannot remain silent about what they did with it. It's a shame, too, because Capitol treated us very well to this point. As always, we appreciate your support......

Track screwup?!
5 April 2006
Format:Audio CD
As review above stated, the track list is completely wrong. This is the worst mistake I've ever seen from a major label, bar none. Great show, tracks are wrong. This would get a 5 star review for the quality of the recording and production, but sheesh, the magnitude of the track errors is so overwhelming it cost it a star.
For anyone who's interested, here's the CORRECT order of the tracks as they appear on the CD:
Galaxie
Toes Across the Floor
Tones of Home
Soup
Soak The Sin
Change
No Rain
Wilt
Vernie
Walk
Skinned
Time

Live at the Palace (The Real Version)
22 Nov 2006
Format:Audio CD
This is a phenomenal album with the CORRECT TRACK LISTING, unlike the other release by the same name. Too bad they don't make bands like they used to, and the only problem with this album is it's way too short. Amazing sound quality.
