Product Description

Amazon.co.uk Review

Brooks's obvious inspirations for Double Live were all those 1970s double-album concert recordings from album-oriented-rock influences such as Bob Seger, Kiss, and Peter Frampton. The difference between those classic-rock sets and Garth's latest is that Live Bullet, Alive and Frampton Comes Alive all helped to rescue their respective artists from virtual obscurity. Coming as they did from still largely unknown commodities, they seemingly promised nothing yet delivered everything. Already a superstar, Brooks merely promises more of the same on Double Live. He delivers, too. "You guys already know what's coming, don't you?" he asks at one point. "And you know what? You're right." Loaded with 22 hits (and three new tunes) recorded in any number of unnamed cities (and studios, too) over the past seven years, Double Live finds Brooks exaggerating his most irritating tics--the Wynnona-ish growls, the ridiculously elastic twang--in the process ruining even his finest songs. Still, even those convinced that Brooks is the Garth Vader of country music will be brought to pause as tens of thousands of admiring fans sing earnestly along to "The Dance" or "Unanswered Prayers", and scream their way through the anthem "Friends In Low Places". --David Cantwell


CD Description

Making a live Garth Brooks album is like trying to catch lightning in a bottle. His concerts--part revival meeting, part love-in, part circus--are spectacles best experienced on afirst hand basis. But this comes as close as a mere CD can to presenting the full Garth experience. Wisely, Brooks has chosen to make the audience the star on many tracks. Hearingthousands of fans singing along to "Unanswered Prayers" and"The Dance" is a goosebump-inducing experience. Songs like "Shameless", "The Beaches of Cheyenne" and "That Summer", all fine in their studio versions, take on a new vibrancy live.
But it's the upbeat songs that really shine. As Brooks and his crack band tear through rave-ups like "Ain't Goin' Down" and "The Fever", his voice takes on an edge of maniacalglee that drives the audience--and him--into a frenzy. And if the prospect of a live Garth souvenir isn't enough, Brooks has thrown in three new songs, including a duet with Trisha Yearwood ("Wild As the Wind"). The CD is also available inat least seven collectable versions, each with a different cover. Garth devotees can't go wrong with DOUBLE LIVE, and casual fans will welcome having all his hits in one handy package.

5.0 out of 5 stars Top Class Stuff By The Great Man Himself, 16 Jan 2002
By bluebellsjamess@aol.com (Irvine, Scotland) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Double Live (Audio CD)
A class album by the biggest selling solo artist of all time. Hearing the fans gives the songs that much more feeling to the them and can almost make you feel like you are there yourself. The songs range from different albums and with them being live it gives them a little more spark. If you are buying this just for songs you may not have and you have his first 4 or 5 albums you would be better off not bothering with it, but if you want to hear Garth in a different (and some would say better) way then this is definetly a CD for you. A MUST for all true Garth fans. Only thing I was disappointed with is I would have loved his version of American Pie from his Dublin concert on it too even thou its not his own.

5.0 out of 5 stars Garth in all his glory, what more can you ask for?, 25 Nov 2001
By A Customer
This review is from: Double Live (Audio CD)
I LOVE this album, it's got to be one of my favorites, not only is it a fantastic collection of live concert performances but it's a great collection of all his different albums rolled into one.

If you need a bit of a pick me up or just want to go a bit mad, then this is for you, you can sing, dance, do whatever when you listen to Garth, and the fact that you get the crowd singing along too makes you almost believe that you're there with them.

Definately a five star album.

5.0 out of 5 stars Have a Garth concert in your own home!, 19 Jun 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Double Live (Audio CD)
An amazing album from an amazing artist! The album (although a compilation of already released Brookes songs) has an added thrill! The sound of the live audience captures the entire atmosphere of the Garth Brooks concert. And, all those extra verses well known by true fans are included too! Each track on this C.D. makes the original recording sound dull. Another excellent album from one of the greatest country stars this decade. Well done!
