Customer reviews of Live On Long Island 4-18-80

Customer Rating: 
Summary: Last concert
Comment: Unfortunately this was their last concert before Tommy died, but I think it was great. I saw them live a few times, and this to me surpassed the ones I saw. I especially loved Jerry's sax solo on 24hours. I listen to this cd a lot, and am always loving it. The negative reviews are just wrong.
Customer Rating: 
Summary: Just buy it
Comment: If you are a Marshall Tucker fan and a live fan just buy it. You won't waste your money. It's my favorite CD to play in the car. Especially on a road trip. This my first review. The album deserves it.
Customer Rating:
Summary: A must have for every fan of the original MTB
Comment: Most enthusiastically recommended to any fan of the original MTB. If you were a fan in the 70's, this CD is an absolute must have. Maybe not their finest performance ever recorded, but definitely one worth having. A fine testament to a fine band. As the last recorded show of the original members, it's made all the more special. If you're looking for flawless, stick with the studio albums. To listen in on some passionate musicians and maybe relive some great memories - put your headphones on, close your eyes, sit back and enjoy the ride.

Summary: Good but not the Best
Comment: I recorded this show, which was aired on WLIR FM NY, as part of the king biscuit flower hour broadcast. They actually played two shows at Nassau, April 18 and April 20. These CD's are OK, but the recorded tapes from the broadcast are way better, with respect to the sound and audience...I don't know what they did during the mixing, but much of the "crowd feel" has been cut out. I did buy the CD's because my original tapes are missing the last two songs, because I used only one TDK SA 90 tape.. Overall, a must have, but sound a little dissapointing. I did go to the April 20 show, which was the last show with Tommy C.

Summary: Disappointing To Say The Least
Comment: Being a long-time fan of the ORIGINAL (and ONLY) MTB, this recording (I believe done for a radio program) is not of good quality and the band is, well, not in good form. We have the Tucker Boys of later years when Doug Gray is mouthing & over-singing the songs. And, unfortunately the late, great Toy Caldwell plays guitar with little or no passion. His voice on Can't You See is also very hoarse. Trust me, the finest the band was recorded was in Milwaukeee in 1974, then the British recordings are pretty good as well, especially Blue Ridge Mountain Sky. This recording fails miserably compared to those. Stick with the earlier live recordings if you want to hear genuine "fire" from the band. These CDs were not worth it.

Editorial Reviews:

The 2-CD set Live On Long Island 4-18-80 was recorded at Nassau Coliseum, the last stop on their 1980 tour, just days before bass player Tommy Caldwell died in a tragic car accident, making it the last performance featuring all of the original members of the Marshall Tucker Band. On this historic recording, MTB delve into old favorites from their hit-heavy catalog, such as "Heard It In A Love Song," "Can’t You See," and "Fire On The Mountain," making it a vital document of a powerful live act, and a must-have purchase for fans.
