Lets face it, live albums come and live albums go. Most are forgotten. When do you last remember a live album being high up in the album charts?

With Thunder, it is different. Thunder are a band born to play live. Okay, not all of their studio albums have been fantastic, but they never put on a bad show live. Thunder are a good old fashioned rock �n� roll band. When you go to see them you know exactly what you are going to get...rock �n� roll played at high volume with a feel good factor that not even Adam got when the first man slipped it into the first woman.

�Live� takes the essence of their live shows and does not disappoint. You wouldn�t go to see them live and be disappointed and you won't be if you buy this....this is value for money. Two CDs, 22 songs recorded over 4 nights with a different set list each night so as to have a huge array of songs to choose from.

All the classics are there... �Back Street Symphony�, �She�s So Fine�, �Low Life In High Places� and a stonking rendition of �A Better Man� in witch the fans play their part in the on going audience participation which is near enough compulsory at a Thunder gig.

The underrated songs off the last 2 albums are there too, �River Of Pain�, �Welcome To the Party� and �Moth To the Flame� all add their bit to this rock �n� roll extravaganza.

The thing ends with the ultimate Thunder crowd pleaser �Dirty Love� which seems to sum up the entire album....we are here to have a fucking good time and that�s what we�re having.

I know , it�s only rock �n� roll, but I like it!
