Email this album review Printable version It isn?t many albums that start as the band bid adieu to their audience but Nine Below Zero were never a completely ?normal? band. They have been playing their version of Blues and boogie for many years and even when the fashion saw them as anachronisms and hopelessly out of style they stuck to their guns and gave their audience a great nights music..
This album captures them in 1992 and the set is pretty well classic Nine Below Zero opening with ?Riding On The L&N? and touching on John Lee Hooker, Canned Heat, Sonny Boy Williamson, BB King & Willie Mitchell and their own material as well.
Alan Glen?s harmonica well to the fore and pounding bass and drums from Gerry MacAvoy & Brendan O?Neill (Rory Gallagher?s rhythm section) plus the lead guitar and vocals of Dennis Greaves this really captures the band at their most powerful and frankly is a better set than the ?Live At The Marquee? that was out in the late seventies.
?On The Road Again, is the band at their best along with the hard edged boogie of ?Can?t Quit You Baby? while their punkier side comes over on ?Can?t Say Yes and Can?t Say No?.
This is nearly an hour of NBZ at their best and it zips by in what seems like seconds.
Great band live and this is them at their peak.
