Savannah are a nice bunch of guys and are responsible for a very good debut release that Z put out late last year. This is a semi-acoustic live gig that the guys did recently in the US and recorded for a special edition release. The main thing you have to do to enjoy this album is get your head around the production. It sounds like it was recorded in a shed and the sound can be a little thin in places. But having said that - the album retains a fairly cool vibe and like the Mark Free live release from Now & Then the rawness actually adds to the vibe. By the time Spend A Little Time comes up - the sound has been worked out, improved out of sight and a better mix is in play. I like the piano intro - that's pretty cool. It leads into Never Let It Go. Two Young Hearts is a definite highlight of the evening. Great AOR track that coverts nicely to stripped back acoustic mode. | ||
