Reviews:
It's a bargain. It's a bargain for the almost 28 minutes of good sound from three live performances. Great digitally engineered recording. Even has one new song not found on the original 'Mudcrutch' albumn (an old Jerry Lee Lewis riff). How about that! And finally, there is mucho 'extended play' with the tune 'Crystal River.' Quite an entertaining session for the typical "country/southern rock" listener. Crystal River gives me shivers - especially the piano solo I was listens to "MudCrutch Extended Play Live" in my Camry driving to work this morning, in moments I was transported back to my 1968 Barracuda on my way to high school with John Powers sitting next to me, listening to WLS, the only radio staion that would come in with clarity.
Thank heavens these guys got back together after 30 some years. The diversity of the four songs and their imaginative renderings drew me into the concert eventhough I wasn't there. All that was missing was the smell of someone lighting up. As the first track began to repeat, all I could think was oh no, is that all. I want more.
For no other reason, eventhough there are plenty others, buy the CD for "Crystal River" - and sit back, light up, close your eyes and see Mike Campbell's fingers gluiding over his guitar, bringing haunting sounds, that resemble an animal crying. Then move on to Benmont's hands that are cascading across the various keyboards and you hear the running of the river, in some places fast - pounding against rocks and others soft, as if the sun is rising and Benmont's fingers are the sun's first touches on the water. At the end Tom's voice comes back. Softly. Yearning. Can there be anything better?
Crystal River transported me - I hope it does the same for you.
