Really? It's one of the all time great live albums. Or are you giving one of my, never heard of it type jests....

You gave it a fire emoji, so I'm gonna guess that later and just remind everybody that I am not a smart man.

Why’s that? It’s a killer live set plays like a greatest hits album.

For anyone who might actually be wondering why it was picked, the Wiki article is insightful:
en.wikipedia.org
Brown footed the bill to make the recording, because the label didn't believe in live recordings. It went on to be extremely sucessful.

"Live at the Apollo" is almost a staple phrase today when defining a classic, and this album is definitely a cornerstone of our popular culture. I don't think I have listened to it in full before, at least not as focused as I did today, and I actually enjoyed it a bit less than I thought I would. I find myself wanting more structure and actual, y'know, songs after a while and not just Browns classic stage antics. Still, can't really get less than 5 stars under any circumstance, can it?

I think I feel the same about all Weller stuff I've heard. There always something very good about it, but I'm never pushed over the edge to thinking it's great. This is a little closer to 4 than to 3 for me, but most of his stuff falls somewhere in that range.

The Cramps are one of my wife's favorite bands and she's introduced me to most of what I've heard. I knew a couple songs on this from her and I really like them. I'm glad they're getting more listeners with the young folk today. A solid 4 leaning toward a 5 after a couple more listens I suspect.

Lol, no, I know we're all older farts. Because they've been included on some recent youth oriented shows on Netflix lately.

I usually listen to Days Of Speed or Snap! when I need some Weller.
