Move the tape recorder closer to the stage!,

This review is from: Live Tracks (Audio CD)
An interesting artifact for gung-ho fans of this honky-tonk outfit (like me), but if you're a new Derailers listener/fan, stick with the studio LPs. Suffers from fidelity problems - muddy mix, inaudible (at times) vocals.Serves best as a change of pace when rotating frequently between Jackpot, Reverb Deluxe, and Full Western Dress.On the up side, there are a few songs here not found anywhere else and as the Derailers ascent continues this may become a valuable rarity.

Nicely Lo-Fi,
April 4, 2002 Charles A Galupi "music snob" (Euless, Texas) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Live Tracks (Audio CD)
I bought this after reading an article in the newspaper on them and I like it. It's simple straight ahead country. It is a live-in-the-studio (radio station) album so it's not polished or professional, but that adds to the feeling.
Highlights are the lead off track "Big City Blues", the joyful "Jackpot", "I'll Catch You When You Fall" and the rockabilly-ish "Just One More Time."

This is the type of country I remember growing up with!!!,

Music with heart, a bass line hits deep in the heart, and a rythem you can't keep your feet from moving to. This is the type of music I remember growing up with... Not a bunch of glitz with no heart but something you can listen to over and over to. A friend of mine bought "full western dress" as a birthday present for me when he saw them at Houston's Continental Club. I couldn't stop listening to it and had to pick up my bass to play a few licks. Listening to Lover's Lie, Lost and Found,etc.. and you'll know what I mean. Hey Steel Guitar still lives in Texas thanks to these guys!!!!!!!!! I'm putting this review on every cd because after hearing them on "Full Western Dress" I bought everything else they had on here and was not dissappointed.
