CD Reviews
Finally an official live release from Chris!

"My Cd just arrived from Australia and what a thrill to have an official live show from Chris released. He and his band Silvertone have been tearin it up for over 20 years now and this release is long overdue. Sound quality is superb and song selection is great as well. The only complaint I have is that every song is faded out. I don't know if this is one concert but it disturbs the flow a little. Needless to say, if you are a fan, you will love it. I assume it will be released in the U.S. also."

"The songs end oddly sometimes, cutting off earlier than they should, which is obvious to those who have seen Isaak and his band in concert, such as on "Baby Did a Bad Bad Thing," which generally extends longer in concert. I look hopefully forward to a 2 disk version that more completely reflects how great Chris Isaak is in concert."

"It's about time an official live CD has finally been released of Chris and his band, as they always put on an awesome show. I have seen him in concert 5 times now and never seen or heard a bad show and I have tickets to see him for the 6th time this coming September. While "Live In Australia" is a great example of a Chris Isaak concert,with it's great little stories and wonderful music, it's a case of you really had to be there to completely enjoy and appreciate one of his concerts. If you ever get the chance, go to one of his live shows and get the complete experience. A chris Isaak concert is always full of new stories, new music and a time you'll never forget. LIVE IN AUSTRALIA is a must have for any Chris Isaak fan!"

"This CD is a great representation of a live Chris Isaak concert complete with introductions and interaction with the band and audiance which show their keen sense of humor. The band and Chris also show off their playing and vocal skills.
It contains a terrific selection of hits and is a good representation of their concert tours here and overseas. Mr. Lucky is his latest CD and is very highly recommended! I would also recommend the DVD of their Soundstage concerts and Christmas concerts. Chris Isaak Christmas is one of the best Christmas CD's and the Soundstage DVD is fantastic!Chris Isaak: Greatest Hits - Live (SoundStage)Chris Isaak ChristmasMr Lucky"
I love Chris Isaak

"This live show is a great cross-section of Chris's big hits and top road songs. I especially enjoyed "I'll Go Crazy" when I heard him do it on stage, and now I have it on record to enjoy any time.
This CD is in rotation in my car for long trips. The only drawback to hearing a live show over again is that Chris's comedy bits get stale after repeated plays. But never the music! The BEST.
