Great sound, playing and the pop songs aren't too bad either.......2002-08-23
2/3rds of the songs on the second cd are pop oriented, but well written and well played pop songs, much like Gentle Giant's "Giant for a Day".
The first side is fantastic progressive rock,
The sound of this live cd is of terrific quality.
The band are enjoying themselves and it shows.
A great recording - 6/10 compared to classic PFM, but 8/10 for everything else
Old songs fantastic, new songs not.......2002-08-10
On this album, PFM plays songs from their 30 year career. As others have noted, the songs from their early days are great and the band still plays them with a lot of energy and innovation. Starting in the eighties, PFM changed direction, and the later material is not very good.
The first disc is the better of the two, since it consists mostly of the older material. There are a few very good tracks on the second CD.
A much better album to get would be 10 ANNI LIVE. This is a 4 CD boxset taken from concert tours from the seventies. It is absolutely fantastic. There is also a 2 CD condensed version, called Celebration, which is almost as good (a number of the better jams were left off).
Another band to check out is Mona Lisa, a French version of PFM.
PFM Still Has It in 1998 Live Set.......2002-01-26
But I haven't been able to stop playing this album in three months. This CD contains a full-length concert from 1998, recorded in Naples and Rome. Drummer Franz DiCioccio, guitarist Franco Mussida, keyboardist Flavio Premoli, and bassist Patrick Djivas are all still on board, with the first three splitting vocal chores (all but a couple of songs are in Italian). Mauro Pagani's flute and violin are replaced by two of the three sidemen; there is also a backup drummer).
The album is subitled "Il Best", the songs that PFM considers high points of their career. Nine of the cuts come from post-US albums, including four from 1997's "Ulisse" (set opener "Andare per Andare" and the plaintive ballad "Ulisse" are standouts) and three from early-80s "Suonare Suonare". Other than "Four Holes in the Ground" and the pre-US "La Carozza di Hans", the song selections tend to pieces with traditional song structures. So you get "Dolcissima Maria" ("Just Look Away") instead of "River of Life" or "The Mountain." All six cuts from the 1974 live album "Cook" are reprised here, though "Altaloma" has been shortened to a five-minute guitar solo.
The playing is more polished and controlled than on "Cook". (Well, they are a quarter-century older here.) It's up to you whether you consider that a good thing. The recent songs, while maybe not "progressive", are solid rock songs with interesting changes and arrangements, and the result is a very good live rock album. Miller analogy: This album is to the 1970s PFM as Genesis' "Three Sides Live" is to "Foxtrot." If you enjoyed the later Genesis, you should enjoy this.
However...if your favorite aspect of early PFM was their jamming and improvisation, this is not the PFM album for you. The jamming is limited to "Altaloma". If your favorite PFM album was the fusion-laden "Jet Lag", you should probably stay away. On the other hand, if you've dreamed of hearing "Out of the Roundabout" without Bernardo Lanzetti's harsh vocals, if you get chills at the thought of a late-set sequence including "Four Holes in the Ground", "E Festa" ("Celebration"), and "Impressioni di Settembre" ("The World Became the World"), put this in your shopping cart now.
