I’m always posting live shows that are hosted by Archive.org, so I figured I’d make it a standard title for future posts. So here it is, the first Archive Live, featuring everyone’s favorite, Tenacious D. If you thought yesterday’s banter from that live Ryan Adams show was good, check this out. Two comedians with guitars in hand rocking out is a sure thing, and the sound on this recording is good, too. It’s got a plethora (read: “crapload”) of vocal and quick guitar runs, so that show isn’t quite as long as it looks, but it conveniently fits on one CD. There’s also a number of great originals on here that you won’t hear on the band’s album, I especially like “Cosmic Shame,” and “Sax-a-boom” is pretty bitchin’. Enjoy.
