[.ca] Live in Italy

great indie rock:
great vocals, great sounds, great music. I love this band

This Is Sooooo Good:
Wow, I had no idea this band was this competent live. Alison's voice is AMAZING on this disc. This girl has the writing and vocal talents in the same league as Bjork. The eq, mixing, and acoustics are extremely pleasant on this recording. They're not the most heavily funded band out there, so what they had to work with as far as gear and sound engineer staff probably wasn't what you'd expect from famous bands on big labels. There's some wobbling and imperfections hear and there, but it's quite endearing in its own way. I'm compelled to recommend this to someone who doesn't have any or many Cranes CD's. This is one to get. The entire range of the band's greatest moments is represented here. I just can't believe so many of those moments from their albums that send a wonderful chill (or whatever you want to call that pleasant tingly sensation) down my spine translated so well in a live setting. I feel an urge to buy a plane ticket to their next concert.

Bliss...:
Like you've read in every other review previous to mine this is truely a gem. Having stumbled upon Cranes' "Future Song" a few months back after one listen I was hooked, this group shines live as all true musicians do. If you are a fan of similar groups like Hooverphonic,Mono,Halou,Bows,etc. I highly recommend giving Cranes a listen especially this live collection.

An amazing concert, an amazing band:
Not much to say about this. The song selection is near-perfect (not too heavily-reliant on their newest album "Future Songs", a nice mix of older songs), and the sound-quality is near-perfect. Highly recommended.
