Les Savy Fav: After the Balls Drop (2008, US)
Les Savy Fav will always be one of my favorite live bands. Unfortunately, this live album isn’t really much better than Pretty Good. Recording is good quality, doesn’t sound real raw but there is plenty of crowd noise, including the singalong on “Who Rocks the Body.”
The last quarter of the album is covers: CCR’s “Hey Tonight,” “Debaser,” “Astro Zombies,” Nirvana’s “Sliver,” a couple others.
I ended up just going back to the studio albums. Without the menace of Cat and the Cobra, without the balls-out energy of actually being there, I dunno if this record is worth it.
