This CD recording is far better than the 1974 LP of the same name,after remixing The sound is sharper and lead voice is so more clearer.i played this CD with headphones on and you can even hear the handclaps in the back ground.srnt very well packed and arrived quickly.

So lets get this straight first, I'm a big fan of Bowies work past and present. I have the vast majority of his studio albums and had previously enjoyed the Ziggy Stardust OST Live double from 1973. So you can imagine the anticipation on finally get my hands on a copy of David Live, recorded just 12 months later. The track listing looks great, the packaging and sleeve notes are well designed and informative.... but sadly I felt the musical content was a real let down. I was fully aware that bowie was heading into his soul period (and i'm actually quite fond of Young Americans) but nothing could have prepared me for the onslaught of saxophones, corny backing vocals and mock soulful yelps from Bowie himself. Even the more recent material from Diamond Dogs has been reworked to fit his new style... and in the process lost all its depth and charm. To sum up, great songs, new arrangements, the band are technically great, but its all very very plastic soul. If you prefer a more straight down the line live album try Stage from 1978.Read full review
With all David`s hits on a live album, how can you NOT buy this? I prefer live albums, if I can get hold of them, but for obvious reasons some artists don`t release them!! I have seen the great man in concert twice and can still picture the songs, costumes and actions, when hearing an audience cheer and singalong!! Atmosphere,songs,and a great experience with an excellent artist like Bowie...you just can`t go wrong. A must for any true fan. Buy this or miss out!!!!!!!!!
