Product Description

Amazon.com

While additional guitarists Brett Nelson of Caustic Resin and Jim Roth of the Delusions pop up in a couple of tracks on Built to Spill's Live, the person most responsible for the extra-crispy sound is Phil Eck. He produced the Idaho-based trio's last two albums, the critically acclaimed Keep It Like a Secret and Perfect from Now On, and here he mans the soundboard to make sure the band's dynamic combination of the intimate and the explosive comes through just right. Live is one of the shinier sounding in-concert documents in recent memory, sounding (at times) more like a polished studio project rather than a collection of live cuts. This works in the group's favor, especially during psychedelic moments such as "I Would Hurt a Fly." Live won't stem the fanatical bootlegging and tape trading among devout fans, but it's a fine sonic souvenir of alt-rock's quirkiest power-pop-'n'-jam band. --Jason Josephes

    Sorry, overserious music critics, that's the truth. This is a guitar player's wet dream, a sonic masterpiece. The sound is crisp and clean, and the interplay between the left- and right-channeled guitars is amazing. Song selection and sequencing is perfect.

    Without "Live," I don't know how I would have coped immediately after 9-11. I just got in the car and drove, singing as loud as my speakers could play.

    Can't say much more strongly: If you like guitar, give this album a spin. It's what's right about music.

    I found this live CD helpful in my greater appreciation of this band. I have never seen them live but I would highly recommend giving this a listen since it made realize how well they re-create the excitement felt in their studio releases.

    The cover of Neil Young's Cortez the Killer is worth the price of admission alone.

    Not many bands sound as good live as they do on their album. However, Built to spill is that rare jewel that sounds amazing in album and in concert. I highly recommend this album.

    One word. Awesome.
  • Reviewed in the United States on April 1, 2006
    It took me a few years to finally buy this album, even though I am a big Built to Spill fan. The reason was simple, most of the songs were from an album I didn't particularly like when it came out (Perfect From Now On) and only a few were from my favorite two (There's nothing Wrong with Love & Keep It Like A Secret).

    When I finally did buy it I was pleasantly surprised. First of all I had a renewed appreciation for the band when I had another go at 'Perfect From Now On' and loved it this time around. As a previous reviewer has said, the versions on here are mostly better than on the studio albums and really gives a good sense about the live-band they are. Making it even sadder that Doug never flies over to Europe, the last time I saw them here was around 1996... but fortunately I saw them in Boston and this album is very similar to the experience I had there.

    The guitar sounds meander along in time like on 'Cortez' the killer but never get boring, like so many other guitar bands get when they have jams like this. And that's what makes this album special, even in 19 minutes you never get bored.

    Great live album, not the best ever as some have said, but up there.

    5.0 out of 5 stars Built to Kill!
    Reviewed in Canada on August 9, 2016
    Ok, I would say that Built to Spill is in my top few bands so it would have to be very bad for a bad review. That said, Cortez the Killer cover is worth the price alone. 20 minutes of awesomeness in one song; the rest of the CD is also good.
