5.0 out of 5 stars Another classic albumn, 4 Oct 2004
By A Customer
I bought this albumn after seeing Ocean Colour Scene perform live in the barrowlands. They were amazing there and i hoped this albumn would be a similar performace. I was not dissapointed. " One For The Road" containts live versions of all the classics, also including brilliant new tracks of there forthcoming albumn. This is high up in my Cd collection, and is a must have for any OCS fan !!

3.0 out of 5 stars Unremarkable but includes several fine moments, 22 Sep 2009
By Greg Farefield-Rose (Hertfordshire United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
(TOP 500 REVIEWER)   
Nowadays live albums are usually no longer released at the pinnacle of a band's career as they often were in the 70s and 80s but instead as a kind of alternative greatest hits set to hopefully bring back a few old fans (and sales!) of a flagging act. One For The Road (2007) certainly belongs to this latter category and, even though it contains quite a bit of filler, also includes enough good material to keep casual fans of Ocean Colour Scene happy as well as being an essential purchase for the band's more die-hard followers.

OCS favourites such as Riverboat Song, the Thin Lizzy-ish Hundred Mile High City and Travellers Tune are all included in competent versions, which more or less match their studio counterparts. Other songs from One For The Road take the recorded mixes one stage further such as singalong celebrations of the anthemic Profit In Peace and Day We Caught The Train as well as a more relaxed Foxy Folk Face which is superior to its rather sugary studio reading.

Most of the best songs on OFTR are live versions of tracks from the band's most popular Moseley Shoals and Marchin' Already LPs though one newer piece which stands out is North Atlantic Drift with its attractive dual harmonising guitars and clever geographical lyrics. Many of the other more recent inclusions on the live album are unfortunately pleasant enough but not particularly memorable.

So is One For The Road worth buying in preference to an Ocean Colour Scene studio compilation? Probably not, though it includes several fine moments and is worth some investigation. Not really a career pinnacle then but still a worthwhile release by this unremarkable but still highly likeable band of Britpop survivors.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent, 6 Jul 2009
I'm afraid I got this for £1 about a year ago so it seems an even bigger bargain that it would be at full price - as a result it will always go down as my finest musical purchase ever! However, there is nothing quite like OCS live in concert given they are all proper musicians and quite partial to the odd impromptu solo. Although I own more OCS albums than it is probably healthy to do, this one stands out, it has all of the classic tunes made better for their live delivery. Excellent for fans and first time listeners to OCS alike.
