Customer Reviews of Live in Rome
Have to give it a 2 out of 5 I love GG! This is a bootleg gone public. Lousy sound quality with extra noises and stuff from the BAD recorder. GG is close to flawless though, which is why it gets a two. On spin? No comment...
The band's great, just not the quality
Apparently, this is the bootleg "Giant Steps Forward" digitally remastered and made a legal release, so why didn't they fix the SOUND??? I haven't got anything wrong towards GG's performance on the disc, they were top notch, but the lack of volume leveling and the strange ringing during Cogs In Cogs make this one unbearable at times.
Surely GlassHouse Records had some form of equipment to change the volume levels? Since only Keith Emerson was out of his mind to take a modular Moog synth on stage, Kerry Minnear's way was to put the synth solo (which was overdubbed many times, due to the synth's monophonic capability) onto tape and play the tape in the middle of a song. They also played a bit of "Giant" at the beginning off of tape as well, so the taped selections are louder, while the Giant is somewhat audible. Major lowlight to GlassHouse on that one. If you do any audio editing, it shouldn't be very hard to fix.
There should be a review system on performance and quality, not overall rating, so this fine concert by GG would have more respect.
As everyone has already said...
This cd is not worth the plastic its printed on. I wish I had read these reviews before I bought it.
Don't get me wrong, the performance is solid and the music is good. The quality is just sooooo poor. I'm usually fairly forgiving when it comes to live recordings, but when I first listened to this, there was so much noise that I thought I had a defective disc. Its that bad.
I do wish they'd release more live shows from different tours. I guess, if nothing else, this is a step in the right direction.
